Uhhh, Apple Music? We gotta talk. #tripledrakedoubletake

Look at this slop job. The only reflecting that should be done here is why 77 million Americans voted for the return of this insane maniac.

out here bemoaning the loss of that one (1!) fish that resisted going the way everyone else was going AND SMILING ABOUT IT i mean LOOK at that devilish fierceness! i am that fish

what the crap, Nextdoor

i feel like this should have gotten more love lol (minted after a chat with @jhsilverman.bsky.social): youtu.be/cKk-lW-vauI

Doh. It’s 3.4oz.

Ran a little experiment flying out of MSY yesterday. Sidebar: the airport code is named for Moisant Stock Yards, close to the site of John Moisant’s tragic AIRPLANE DEATH, but I do digress My bag was pulled and the TSA agent held my 6.25oz toothpaste in one hand & my 4.2oz face cream in th’ other,

MSY ✈️ SFO Mood: grateful, satiated, tapped in to the abundance that persists which I sampled last time I was here late March. A bit off rhythm — but “close enough for jazz,” as one of my jazz-musician-cousins used to say. Eager to get back to my own exercise routine & back to the Bay & my garden 🌸🌱

This… this shouldn’t be happening. It’s bothersome. #Tahoe #macOS

It takes so much each day to hold out hope. But it’s worth it. If you can look above now, get some perspective, you’ll realize… this mania is temporary. All of the imbalances are getting really severe. I’m eager to witness & support what healing and rebalancing can be done. This, too, shall pass.

SFO ✈️ MSY Mood: tired (been nutty with all the things), satisfied (completing the semester), anticipatory (going to hang out with a certain gent), and eager (returning to Nola 6 weeks after the previous visit, when the visit before that was 29 years hence). There’s gotta be a German word for this.

tfw when UI becomes U-WHY????????

Up and at em at 530 for a long day starting with donuts & final presentations in my very last class at CCA in the program I used to Chair. It’s a class on purpose & meaning in work in a mercurial job market. My students poured their souls into their stories. I’m bringing alums back to crit. #LFG 🤘🏻

one true move

Name a favorite album & track from the 90s — I’ll start ⤵️ Meat Beat Manifesto’s Psyche-Out hit deep for me at the intersection of industrial beats (a la Front 242, Nine Inch Nails, Nitzer Ebb), with hip hop environment, bass heaviness & utter queerness of its visuals music.apple.com/us/album/99/...

In the year of our lord twenty twenty six WHY have we not yet learned how NOT to reply-all

I’m not “busy” — merely delightful to be around 💫

It’s tenets, not tenants. (this idea lives rent- AND lease-free in my mind)

more like voting wrongs amirite 😳🤬 #shitholecountry

This. Plus: wait, he’s been nice???

when i am in a foul mood which is rare i wish i could hot swap my mood for ANY other mood that is kinder

I’ve been worried about this since he chose @real before his name on the bird app, and named his platform Truth. Nothing is true.

SEA ✈️ OAK Mood: 8/10. Slept so poorly that I initially forgot to order coffee 🫥 Had a great, if extremely back to back long weekend of connecting communities and friends 🙏🏻 Saturday was the straight married with kids crew. Sunday brunch for the queers. Yesterday my 8th JoshMob for design & tech 🤙🏻

I suppose the answer to why so many US citizens vote for something then, when they get what they wanted, profess to hate it and blame "The System" for the results, is they really have no idea what they're voting for. They understand the mechanics of voting, but not the thought process involved.

I'm not even stirred.

feel the urge to post this for some reason…

OAK ✈️ SEA Mood: 7/10, hope to improve after a nap on the plane as I’ve got this weekend off! Def don’t wanna miss the views of Shasta, Jefferson, Adams, and Rainier 🗻😍

I just said “guess what kids! dinner’s ready” aloud to myself. It’s me. I’m kids.

If you haven’t looked up the origin of the phrase “for the birds,” please do so. I’ll wait. [...] Suggesting that it means something is worthless completely overlooks the fact that BIRDS FOUND SUSTENANCE amongst the poop! 💩🙃

Moments of delightful customer service: When ordering two scoops of ice cream, being asked which scoop I prefer on top or bottom!🍦🙏🏻 And just now ordering a slice of banana bread, being asked if I wanted a middle or END PIECE! 🍞 Reader, I am ALL ABOUT that crust 😮‍💨😎

simplified, in the lowest terms, happy 1/5

Haven’t had a Twitter dream in a while. I was in the building, tryna find a room but on the completely wrong floor. I asked the twin bleach blonde dolled up receptionists, who looked part of a Penthouse situation (the mag, not the level), they pointed me to the elevator. Pressed a button & woke up.

In bed before 9:30 is DELICIOUS no further questions

New euphemism (from my community garden work party) just dropped: Well aren’t you just a bucket of sunchokes 🤣

Four and a half months living by myself and I love it so so deeply — I know where everything is because that’s where it goes & stays there — today I had a light breakfast, nap, and a big early supper — dishes are clean and I’m relaxing on the couch at 6:30 when it’s still light out 😮‍💨 #tidy #bliss

Being social three many nights in a row and I’m zonnnnked today 😮‍💨🫥 #joshisnothererightnow #tryagainlater

“To be honest” is such a funny phrase… Like… what have you been DOING 😳

if you’re sea mine it means imma sea yours

What a time to be a… former employee whose legacy of original thought is being resold as training data, where even a defunct company can continue to make money off yo ass

I’m 6’4” and I have come to expect it & I’m happy to help. Now if we could juuussst figure out a way for you to lend me your unused airplane legroom…… 🙏🏻

If your manager who called you to offer you a role is not the person calling you to let you know you’ve been laid off, that’s culture. And piss-poor leadership.

Upon hearing bad news: “Jesus, doctor”

First it was big box malls. Now it’s college campuses. Maybe don’t build massive structures that aren’t reusable / repurposeable.

Dream: At a control room during a virtual conference. Lots of screens of live feed, buffered content, speakers standing by. A massive LLM is about to demo how many possible moves there are for the game of Connect Four. The machine is housed in an 80s pebbled gray box with a big orange I/O switch.

#Hungary for the same change here in the US. 🙏🏻😮‍💨

A new couplet for that famous song: You say semantics and I say some antics 🙃🤪

Fireworks in East Bay?

Never been so happy to be inside on a rainy, blustery Saturday eve, relaxing on the couch listening to Khruangbin, about to pour myself a glass of red wine and reorganize my vinyl! 🙏🏻🍷😎🤙🏻

TOUCHDOWN IN ONE HOUR AND TWO MINUTES THIS IS EXCITING AND I HOPE THEY ALL LAND SAFELY www.youtube.com/watch?v=hL65...
