Found this quote said by my youngest a year ago that’s still true today: โAt least when you were a kid you didnโt have to deal with Elon Musk.โ ๐
“The Year Twitter Died” from The Verge is worth a visit for some bizarro web design vibes and storytelling.
The key to being able to eat a lot of cheese over the holidays is to slice it really thin. The thinner the cheese, the less fatty it is. Thus you can eat more cheese. ๐ฏ
I really have no idea why The Marvels didn’t do better in theatres. It was fun, light, and didn’t drag everything out with mountains of superhero exposition babble. Iman Vellani as Ms. Marvel is a breath of uncynical enthusiastic fresh air.
Plus the flerkens.
The Marvels, 2023 - โ โ โ ยฝ (contains spoilers)
This review may contain spoilers.
I donโt know why this isnโt doing better? Itโs a fun superhero movie in a 90 minute run time, with some heartfelt payoffs for the past and fun set ups of future characters.
Iโm convinced they could re-release Beatles Rock Band and make $$$ again with the same exact game. Every generation of gamers needs a Rock Band guitar in their kit.
I hope Tim Cook and Tim Epic Games Guy are happy that they had their big lawyer fight and so now I can’t join my kids in playing LEGO Fortnite on my $3,500 Mac Studio.
๐ A quick reminder of my weekly newsletter I send out. Here’s the most recent issue to read and decide if it’s worth signing up for.

We’re currently using a 3GB / 30 day data plan with Public Mobile for our oldest. Anyone have better Canadian mobile rates for their kids?
Instead of sending my newsletter on Friday like usual, I sent it on Saturday morning just like I totally planned to do. Here’s this week’s issue if you’re curious, or want to sign up. ๐๐
With today’s updates to Final Cut Pro + Logic Pro, it feels like Apple is trying to show their commitment to both audio and video platforms.
Can I get a Logic Pro Wrapped 2023 because that would show all the podcast episodes I’ve listened / edited? ๐
I’m sure they’ve done the math, but I honestly feel like Costco would sell a lot more jumbo muffins (to me) if I didn’t have to buy 24 at a time. 12 is probably enough jumbo muffins for a family of 5 to have in the freezer.
I think it speaks to the chaos within Apple that they have the Apple Music app (macOS + iOS) AND they own the hardware (iPhone) AND they make a “story” style portrait version of your Music Replay… but AFAIK there’s no way to export that to share it?
