So, I'm watching the scene in a TV show where this guy is talking to his assistant, asking her to send a gift with a card. "Something affectionate," he says. "No, something polite" and it hit me. Writing is not hard - arguably it's easier for me, a writer, than some, but it's not hard.

I'm going to start carrying a flask with me to all of my press events (in person and virtual) so I can take a shot every time someone one stage says "work...AND play." I figure my liver will give out around mid-March.

suspected killer: here's a manifesto where i explain my motives. health insurance companies' modus operandi mutilates and kills people media: the killer was radicalised through assassin sim among us and a firaxis internship where he was trained to kill 'bugs'

It’s that special time of year when you get to see freshly cut Christmas trees tied to the top of EVs and can’t help but wonder where the compromise came in.

I'm so happy. I just scheduled a post to go live of 12/13 at 14:15!

I used to be one of those “chat with the ride share driver” guys but I have very much grown out of that.

I have had a FedEx package attempt to be delivered 3 times with nary a FedEx truck showing up. That's usually FedEx code for "We lost your package" but I need to wait another week to be sure.

Ohhh Adam, you silly boy. What are you up to now?

PSA: If you're looking for a movie to watch and flipping through all the streaming services, don't forget about YouTube. It has a ton of really good movies available for free. My latest pick, 12 Monkeys www.youtube.com/watch?v=YykE...

The hardest part to grasp about AI is the absolute disparity between the highs and lows. First, there's this post from @joannastern.bsky.social where Gemini just flat out makes things up: bsky.app/profile/joan...

My first appointment of CES is booked and I don't even have to leave my hotel. This is going to be a good year...

The longer you read Def Leppard lyrics, the less they sound like love ballads and more like stalker manifestos.

My latest labeler is finally working! What it shows for each politician - 3 labels for the top corp donators - 3 labels for the top industries that donate to them Subscribe to this labeler to be more aware of the interests our politicians represent 🚀 bsky.app/profile/us-g...

As a writer, I'm constantly amazed that my job is to write things down and people actually pay me to do it. As an editor, I see how some other people write and yeah, ok that makes sense now... 👿

Oh God, what a terrible photo, but a fun podcast! Tune in!

OK CES pitches. Starting early this year, are you? I see you.

Google just launched a beta app that will solidify my ability to use ARM-powered Windows machines, and I am absolutely stoked. support.google.com/drive/thread...

Masterpiece

Relatable content

The not-so-secret reality of even pre-Elon Twitter was that it was godawful for clicks. Writers/editors didn't post stories there for readers, they did it to show their industry peers (and maybe subtly flaunt that they'd published first). Even "viral" posts were generally dire for actual traffic.

Ok Bluesky, I'll give you another chance, but there better be puppies over here.

TFW you accidentally export your podcast as a .wav instead of .mp3 and you're wondering why it's taking for ever to upload to your host...

Here are some photo samples from the upcoming Nothing Phone (2) because Carl Pei said we could.

Bluesky: Rebuilding your following one invite, every two weeks at a time...

Why is it, whenever I get a LinkedIn notification informing me that someone viewed my profile, the notification always seems surprised that anyone would have taken an interest?

Hey everybody, ICYMI here's my full review of the most fun phone that I have reviewed this year.

I did the funny face thing on the Moto RAZR plus cover screen.

Episode 1 of Black Mirror season 6 is amazing

Amazing news!

This is true but for any kind of peer group. Have 24/7 tech nerds or 24/7 thriller novel nerds. Any chat group with a bunch of people who share your passion can only be a good thing.

TIL It's only Tuesday and just WTF?

TIL that the International Space Station has a 3D printer on board and yes that makes absolutely perfect sense.

After reviewing the Yogabook 9i and the Moto Razr Plus, I'm so spoiled and I want everything to be amazing now. https://www.slashgear.com/1301618/lenovo-yoga-book-9i-review-best-dual-screen-laptop/ https://www.slashgear.com/1320256/motorola-razr-plus-review/

My first of two Razr Plus podcasts that day! This was a fun conversation!

Just in case you wanted to read 3,000 words about a phone with a 3.6" screen (I think it has a second one somewhere) https://www.slashgear.com/1320256/motorola-razr-plus-review/

Not sure who else feels this way, but Google Bard-generated results at the top of Google Search results have become just another thing my eyes scan past when looking for actual answers in Google search results.

I love it when the Cubs play in Pittsburgh because there's always a chance this could happen #StarWars

Happy Father's Day motherfuckers!

TIL that bluesky doesn't support gifs

TIL that @aoc.bsky.social is a star trek nerd ;). Any Stargate love?

I got to go hands-on with the Moto razr+ and the Moto razr (or as I like to call it the Moto razr Jr.). Here are my thoughts.

Twitter: "No one can top us for stupid moves that drives people away." Reddit: /holdmybeer is currently private...

I'm into it, but I wonder about front crash safety. https://www.slashgear.com/1312615/telo-tiny-ev-truck-massive-pickup-alternative/

My son told me he wanted to rent a movie on Amazon and use Apple's screen recorder function to record the video so he could watch it whenever he wanted. We had a chat about intellectual property and he agreed to purchase the video at the full price. It was a proud papa moment.

Just setting up my twttrrr
