Po’boys are also for breakfast. Frady’s, New Orleans LA

Kristi Noem’s tenure just ended today (Jan 25, 2025 → Mar 5, 2026). That’s 404 days in office. In standard political time units: ≈ 36.7 Scaramuccis ≈ 9 Trusses For reference, 1 Scaramucci = 11 days. 1 Truss = 45 days.

I hate the new icon!

This week, I am rotating pictures of Persian cuisine on my Facebook food group header

This is so unhinged that I now want to try them youtu.be/K0PYXm6T8pk?...

Ok the new AI playlist generator in Apple Music is cool.

Ugh

Marriage tip: If you enjoy truly hot, high-pressure showers, do not let anyone talk you into an electric tankless. After install, endless E5 errors, uninstall, and replacing it with a new tank… we’re back to reliable scalding water. Went with a Rheem Gladiator. Hot water should not require math.

BLT. The sane choice in an insane world today

Sunday evening mixology. Mai Tai.

Robert Picardo earned his keep with the latest episode of Starfleet Academy but the writing was also dead on. I hope the show survives its current ratings, it had a rough start.

Pretty sure the Iranian foreign minister wouldn’t allow him in his locker room either

World went a bit to hell today. So i went out for Persian food.

I may or may not have suggested that Parthenope Restaurant put life-size “Maddie & Andy” dolls out front. Andy in full chef whites. Maddie in a classy black FOH suit. Because my brain decided Parthenope rhymes with Raggedy and then escalated. Unsolicited branding consulting is my passion.

Executive: “Members say the Kirkland vodka bottle is impractically tall.” Logistics: “Still fits on a pallet.” Snacks: “What if we went taller?” Executive: “How tall?” Unveils 4-ft Pringles variety pack. CEO: “Approved. Add a hot dog coupon.”

This is dumb. That absolutely should be an easy integration. Also a one-click “check for updates/update” widget on Home Screen or in the Dynamic Island that shows you updates are pending

I don’t like the changes to the Apple account part of the App Store in 26.4 beta. You have to do 2 clicks to get to updates and it takes like 10-20 seconds to get there:

The interview with "Gavin Newsom" on Kimmel last night was well worth the price of admission. youtu.be/zDjUdPCLeek?...

"Why aren't you helping?"

"Startup Roaster". This may be the finest example of prompt engineering I have seen yet. shipordie.club/roast/startup

I'm pretty sure I've seen this movie

After last night’s political theater, I did what any rational adult would do: ranked dry cereal as a coping mechanism. S-tier sustains. Sugar bombs burn out. Some cereals are platforms. Some are punishment. What do you secretly eat straight from the box? www.facebook.com/share/p/1839...

Getting a bunch of "This app will no longer work in future versions of MacOS" warnings on 26.4 beta today (Java Updater and Logitech). Clear signals of removing x86 support on the platform. It's time.

Meanwhile on Facebook

Good news, everyone! Eggs are now cheaper! Five egg omelets for all! It’s time for extravagant QUICHE-OUTS!

Acme Weather for iPhone. I like it.

Lesson learned: READ ONLY. Yikes!

Happy Monday everyone
