I remain undefeated in setting up ways to contact me about my podcast editing work, and then never checking in to see if anyone has contacted me.

This time it was my 🍋 biz’s Facebook page I think? 🤦‍♂️


My advice to someone in a reasonably serious relationship: buy the flowers (or whatever the equivalent is for your person) more often than not. Just do it. Don’t overthink the money, occasion, or reason.

Life is way too short not to just buy the flowers.


“Unbreakable?” my kids say with skepticism.

We’re not getting a dog! (If you’re my kids, keep scrolling!)

Ok now that they’re gone: if you have a dog, how did you decide on a breed or mix to get? Latest we seem to be moving towards is some sort of labradoodle / Aussiedoodle mix?

Not getting one though. Obviously.


TV audio question: I’d rather not have to deal with speakers everywhere + and expensive amp to get decent sound for movies or video games.

We tried a soundbar a few years ago and couldn’t fix audio / video sync issues. Has it gotten better? Did we just get a dud?


Civil War, 2024 - ★★★ (contains spoilers)

This review may contain spoilers.

I respect that they didn’t want to draw a direct parallel to real life sides. But then I kind of spend the whole movie looking for hints or clues anyway?

Someone clapped when the president was shot, which was a weird vibe up here in Canada.



It’s the most wonderful time of the year. 🎉 I’m talking about the first two rounds of the NHL playoffs starting this weekend, naturally.

I grew up feeling like I’m not supposed to be “loud” about things I really enjoy. (that’s for a therapy session), so now I love when people get excited about an album, movie, book, poem, painting, tv series, etc. and share that excitement with the world in some way.



New blog post that’s mainly for me 6 months from now when I forget I figured this out: Ghost Redirects Error on Upload.


What the heck was that Survivor? No spoilers but somehow both the best episode and worst at the same time?


New blog post: ✨ Stephen Robles with Apple TV Tips


I haven’t seen it yet, but the entire internet has been telling me to watch Hundreds of Beavers, so it’s on my Letterboxd watch list now.


New blog post: Where Did Everyone Go?


I’m not sure which of these is the right option for importing an RSS feed from another blog into my micro.blog? Ideally it would just post to my timeline with the title and link to the actual blog post (on my Ghost blog for example). Any suggestions? @help

It’s not just snowing out there today, it’s snowing. April 17th can suck a duck.


One of my biggest (only?) complaints about using Ghost is that the dashboard I see when I log in is a giant reminder that I have 2 official “members” (one is me) and I continue to have $0 in monthly recurring revenue. I didn’t plan to make money off it.

Now that I’ve got my blog moved over and properly set up, I finally updated my uses page. I still keep getting the old version of the page when I look at it, but I’m trusting that the cache has been broken for the rest of the world. 😆
