It’s North London Derby Day! My plan is to run down to meet up with #SMRC, run with them, & then run to Wolff’s Biergarten in Albany for the Spurs & the Gunners. #COYS #THFC

Go U! 😉

My son suggested that I grow out my mustache to complete the look.

For the Warriors Ultra in July, I have decided upon a costume that is Magnum PI related. I will be previewing the gang uniform at the Troy Turkey Trot. (tights that look like jeans, red aloha shirt, aviators, Tigers cap) Also iTunes had the full series on sale & I have impulse poor control.

As I am catching up on media, this @latenightseth.bsky.social interview with Brendan Fraser is great. Especially the discussion about Tokyo and loneliness. youtu.be/-LPpx8tTVh8?...

Working from home today for the first time in what feels like three weeks so I’m catching up on a lot of media that I haven’t consumed. It’s odd and offputting. (Just like me.)

I know CBS News is an absolute tire fire right now, but a fairly glowing portrait of her on CBS Mornings seems not great.

Does Alison Roman need to be returned to pop culture relevance?

I have been told that vaccines cause autism. I have also been told in a separate conversation that autism is a superpower. Therefore, can I make an assumption that vaccines cause superpowers?

Almost 15 years on, @radiohead.wastehq.social’s “The King of Limbs” still slaps.

Someone using my email address signed me up for Gavin’s mailing list. I. Hate. Everything.

Well… the good thing about this platform is that it helps me compile the list of things that people care strongly about that I cannot be bothered to care or investigate. Cool, BS, you broke me.

Two different loaves of bread, 36 sourdough muffins, breakfast sandwiches, a lovely red sauce, & six chicken cutlets have come out of my kitchen today. I have been cooking since 5:30. (I also took the time for a weight workout and a ride on the bike.) The dog & I have earned our nap.

I am getting ready for a thing at 1 pm but this just popped up on my radar and it has the potential to change my afternoon for the better. I love Lush and seeing them at Terminal 5 was one of the highlights of 2016 (along with meeting @libraryshoes.bsky.social). #Shoegaze youtu.be/ow3jEIV0s74?...

It’s odd, but Lily Allen’s “West End Girl” has become my go to working music. There is a more than a decent chance that this will be my favorite album of the year.

I’m up. I’m finishing my coffee. I’ve had my breakfast. It’s going to be heavy snow for the next hour. Do I run in the heavy snow?

I opened HBOMax to find out that there is a series called "Beat Bobby Flay". It disappoints me to report that this is a cooking show.

Pulling a draw from the jaws of victory against a 10 man United how I want to start my Saturday

“Lads, it’s Tottenham.” #COYS

Note to @msnbc.com talking heads: Albany is a city. People live and work here. People unconnected with NYS Government. Stop using Albany as a catchall term for the state government when you mean the Assembly or the NYS Senate.

Alt Headline: SUNY-Ithaca Capitulates

As a New Yorker, I find @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social to be suspect when it comes to his decision-making. I mean, FFS, bro is an Arsenal supporter. (Good luck, Mr. Mayor-Elect!)

There are bills on Erik Adams desk that will impact my clients. I was asked a question about one in an email chain. Also on this email with someone from a large payroll processing company. I responded to the email. I just got a survey from the company asking about the interaction. I’m livid.

American Icon @joeposnanski.com is doing 100 Things (He) Loves About Baseball. One of mine: Howie Rose telling a story about being in the stands at Shea in the ‘60s & ‘70s during a long game on a summer afternoon.

Tristen’s long time GF Hailey’s stepfather is going through it. She has started a GoFundMe to help him out. Please see all information here: www.gofundme.com/f/support-mi...

Dear HBO Max, Even before JK Rowling outed herself as a bigot, she was still a hack writer of derivative stories for children. Nothing from her universe interests me. Please stop putting that content at the top of the page. It's bad. Really bad. Thanks, EWA

Today is the best of the Abbott World Majors. #RunNYC

Oh, Thomas Frank has lost the locker room already. How very Spursy. #THFC

The algo has provided me with a ton of regional Shiba rescue content and I want to foster all of them. All of them. Just a pack of Shibas all being weird at the same time.

DST has ended in the US and I have taken the "extra" hour to get things done this morning. I applied for a position with a PEO. I have laundry going. The plan is to meet a friend for a trail run at 9 which is only happening thanks to the miracle drug that is Afrin.

Friends running New York, the Dodgers proved that if you just throw money at a problem, you can eventually accomplish your goals. Be the Dodgers today.

Now that Spooky Season is over... 101 Days Until Pitchers & Catchers Report

I never thought they’d take the potato. Happy Halloween!

Friday night. As ever, the world is filled with women who look like a million dollars and men who’ve made fuck all effort. Her: perfectly chosen outfit, hair immaculate. Him: hoodie.

I’m a little late to the Discourse™️ on this, but Lily Allen’s album is delightful. It is enjoyable listening, and it makes me feel for her and her pain. It also continues my belief that Dartmouth guys are always a little suspect.

As I am in search of new opportunities (I am happy to discuss offline what is happening), I am back on LinkedIn as that is apparently a thing one needs. Anyway, I have worked with some of you in the past and if we could connect so that my profile fills out, that would be great.

(11/X) But nevertheless, if you read a typical Free Press article or Caitlin Flanagan piece, it's pretty clear that revenge against the annoying radical left is why they are glad that Trump won.

So food drives and coat drives are good but when you are the county government and this is how the county executive reacts to the loss of HEAP and SNAP funding, it is misconduct. Rensselaer County, NY deserves better. I mean, would wishing for the Dutch to take over again be too far?

🎶I’m just K-ned. The ghosts you know are largely dead. Sing a song to them instead. Wow! I have a large head.🎶 Happy Halloween from the Mojo Dojo Casa House & home of LCM. May your treats be sweet, your tricks be fun, & may your pop culture references be more contemporary than mine.

I am remarkably lucky to be where I am, to have the opportunities I have, and to enjoy the luxuries that life provides.

I don't know who Sam Reid is so I could be getting Milkshake Duck'd here but this video about the Taco Bell 50K was nice. Open and honest, and the dude was undertrained. It was sincere, which is a thing I enjoy. Anyway, here it is: youtu.be/KXy7r9A8uEA?...

I just saw a comment that "half of Americans can't read" and while I want to dispute that, I still have the same headache that made me cranky yesterday and I don't want to deal with people. Have a lovely day!

“Things can be complicated” is a message that you see on throw pillows and articles about developers from the TU.

While I’m OK with the messages, dudes wearing sweatshirts yelling at me about politics from the front seat of their car as a genre of video needs to stop. They’re bad for making the videos. You’re bad for sharing the videos. You’re doing nothing but feeding the rage machine. And pissing me off.

Platner’s actions are an embarrassment to our state on the national stage. He has no qualification whatsoever to run for this seat and a US Senate race is not the place to grow up.

I just pulled my lawnmower out of the shed and there was a mouse sleeping on it. Well part of me finds it cute another, larger, part of me does not want them in places where I store things.

Whenever I see a job posting that has as one of the requirements the “ability to multitask” I realize that the writer has no idea how work is supposed to flow. Human beings are remarkably bad at doing multiple things at the same time. Say that you want someone that can prioritize & shift focus.
