I caved and finally washed my truck on the weekend. It’s already dirty again of course. But how many times do you get to wash a vehicle in February and not have to worry about it getting frozen shut?
Mike Myers demonstrated a perfect way to show support for #Canada on SNL last night. Clearly should’ve been the honorary captain for Canada, not Gretzky. #elbowsup
Why is search and typing in Apple’s own Passwords app so slow? Just me? I’m on a Mac Studio so hopefully searching through a text database would be somewhat quicker?
2 years ago I was blogging about how tearing Twitter down was easy. I could almost do a find and replace and republish as “tearing down America is easy” this year.
JD Vance reminds me of so many men in the evangelical church world who’ve failed up into positions of authority and power, but somehow believe they’ve earned it on merit or ability.
They all have that same condescending, smug, punchable face too.
Now I really need to update my “you’re getting a little Skype-y” phrase when a remote podcast recording isn’t coming through properly: Skype is shutting down on May 5th.
I love this Harrison Ford cranky old but actually really sweet guy energy for 2025.
It was nice to go to watch my kid’s hockey game last night and not step outside to -30C when we left.

That’s probably enough internet for the day. Time to shut it down everyone. We’ll pick it back up again where we’re left off tomorrow.
It really sucks to have to explain to my kids that Americans probably don’t actually hate us, and that most of them probably don’t really want to take over our country, but… if Americans can’t stop their own President / Musk, who can?
I’m so tired of not being able to trust if someone is a human, bot, or spam / phishing account online. And I know it’s just going to get worse as the phishing gets more sophisticated with software.
People are leaving actual comments on my blog. It feels like it’s 2010 again. 😆
Trying out a different Ghost theme for my blog and also leaning in to the newsletter angle Ghost uses. How’s it look on your device of choice?
Kid playing Quest VR (Gorilla Tag?)while other kid drums while the dog lays out hoping to get stepped on.
How’s your chill Tuesday night going?

The entire 5 season run of Orphan Black is on for $9.99CAD on AppleTV which seems like an error somehow?
I think it’s fine for software companies to raise their prices. But I wonder how many people are on Notion’s legacy Plus plan at $48/year that are being forced to a $120 Plus plan? Is it worth the push it gives me to explore other options? Would they be doing this if they didn’t have to pay for AI?

First time getting a vehicle towed achievement unlocked. ✅ (Technically it’s my son’s vehicle.)
Apparently the drive belt slipped off while driving, causing the steering to seize up. Luckily he was able to get to a quiet street.
