finally an instagram ad that speaks to me.

never thought I'd be so happy for mud season part 1

Only recently did I really start loving the AJJ songs about being crazy. Unsure if that means I'm coming to terms with something or I'm developing something.

Been pretty into Searows the last few days, after reading a really good review on the homepage of RYM. If you dig Julien Baker this would be very much for you.

Helping another team test their app today, which is really hammering home my "all software should be as intuitive as a hammer" mindset.

its a beautiful day, what a beautiful day

The worst defensive snap of 2025 - Two DL go after Hurts, which leaves an enormous cutback lane for Saquon - Kinlaw stops to complain about a holding call in midplay after Saquon runs past - Four different Commanders try and fail to tackle Saquon one after the other like villains in a kung fu movie

Needed an afternoon pick-me-up so I'm throwing on my favorite Rosenstock song.

This doesn't happen a ton anymore - I saw an ad for Hotline TNT's Raspberry Moon in a music magazine, and I thought the cover looked like something I'd enjoy. Didn't know anything else about them. Great record.

Trying to ignore that it snowed again.

Just learned that Option-Click on an InDesign layer shows/hides all layers but that one. Crazy that I'm still learning stuff about this goofy app after like 20 years.

whoever built the amazon firestick initial setup should be put in jail.

fuck it we're getting sad in the middle of the night.

lotta mudvayne being played in this uber.

Debating trying to figure out going to the west coast to see Jimmy Eat World with Motion City Soundtrack.

The new bit that's taken over our house is re-writing Amyl's U Should Not Be Doing That but from the perspective of our dog being naughty.

One of the perils/benefits of hosting your own music library is sometimes you keep things in there as a bit and then get reminded of c-list nü metal from a quarter century ago when shuffling.

USPS flagged something as undeliverable because my mailbox is inaccessible, which is a lie. Hoping its just late and the reason is nonsense, cause otherwise this means war.

I'm a deeply flawed individual, but I bring joy to the world.

ever since the last plex update for roku i've been in buffering hell. hoped a fix would rollout soon but got tired of waiting today and grabbed a firestick. hoping that improves things.

The funny thing to me about kid rock forgetting the words to his song of baby-noises is that I could probably do the whole thing from memory at any given moment. And I didn't even write the song, I was just 12 at an inopportune time.

While the temperature's been really low the last few weeks I've noticed squirrels collecting on one or two spots on my neighbors roof every day. Wondering if they have a heat leak there, and further if there's some way I can tell my neighbor this without sounding like I'm an insane shaman.

Finally doing the Mark Hoppus autobiography. It's a good hang. I was never the biggest Blink-182 guy, but I was a teen when they were at the height of their popularity. Lot of interesting stuff there. Now it has me going back through their discog.

gonna be the rare time i'm psyched to listen to the bs pod.

Drake Maye Not

at least it ended funny.

Pulling for Liverpool for Arsenal reasons. Feels dirty.

I really love The Arrivals.

someone walked out onto the middle of cooper river when it was frozen and jabbed a "F. ICE" sign there. Wish I could snap a pic when driving by.

If only there was some way I could find which queen on the goldheart mountaintop I'm looking for.

When sports betting was legalized in PA I got pretty into it, just as another sports thing. But since, sportsbooks have overwhelmed everything I consume with ads begging me to gamble. Functionally calling me stupid and boring for not. Triggered something oppositional in me.

The game has changed.

I gotta assume one of the guys who runs the O's is a 5 year old that saw the name Blaze and naturally assumed he was the best to ever do it.

Crushing a gallon of iced coffee before every therapy session probably skews the whole thing. I'm not gonna stop, just interesting to think about.

Remembering 11 years ago on nba trade day, when Woj just tweeted "dear god" because there was like a 22 player 5 team trade. All role-players iirc.

currently

I don't love the idea of NBA Europe, but if the NBA could add like 20+ more trade partners I think it would have some wacky chaos, at least.

The camden date would have a real freaky crowd. Kinda want to check it out.

Oh wow, been at my job 11 years as of today. That feels complicated lol.

Cleaning up old files on my work computer and I'm finding the dumbest stuff. Dean Blandino Template:

The first handful of Sum 41 records hold up really well. I will die on this hill.

From eight years ago today....this remains one of the most epic Inquirer pages ever. "May the Foles be with you..."

Oubre indispensable now.

at least it wasnt gambling.

I mostly assume every athlete is on something, and the only people who get caught are the dumbest motherfuckers alive. Not feeling charitable towards PG right now.

The vibes got too good. I should have seen this coming.

Me, sitting in a frozen tomb: man this arsenal/leeds weather looks horrible.

lmao.
