I don’t know why, but as much as I’d love a new Bond film, I’m kind of happy to see Amazon eat shit on their $6.5 billion purchase of MGM and the Bond franchise: For 007, Amazon is Not Enough

“Substack Is At It Again”. Please don’t use Substack. There’s so many better options that not only aren’t Nazi-loving, but also much more fun to use for both you the writer and your readers.

Every time I have to go to Delisle, Saskatchewan for my kid’s hockey game, there’s blizzard conditions. IPSO facto, if they’d stop scheduling my kid’s hockey games in Delisle, Saskatchewan, we wouldn’t have blizzards.

If you’re self employed or a small business owner, how transparent are you about your finances? People IRL sometimes ask me “how’s business going?” and I never know how to answer it because… it depends. And sometimes it changes from week to week. But nobody really wants a annual statement. 😉

Nice.

I have to imagine this will help sell a bunch of AirTags which is effectively Apple + the consumer doing the work of the airlines in finding luggage.

Excited to show Neville Dogbottom all our fav Xmas movies for the first time. Tonight: The Grinch (2018)
