It’s interesting how my sports fandom has shifted since the WS. “Nothing can hurt me as much as that so any success is fun to celebrate”

My mom, who’s in her 80s, called today to share that her younger sister and husband secured an apartment in her senior living home on the same floor and she couldn’t contain her excitement. I found it awesome and sweet that after 80 years they’ll be back together under the same roof. ❤️😀

What a home run trot.

Lube hour? Not so Jiffy though are you?

Kristine and I knocked our mortgage down to 4 digits yesterday. Would have been sooner except for World Series tickets! Excited to be near the finish line… 🥳

That’s a big fly

Every year start my organization wipes every recurring meeting from our calendars and asks us to only add back what we deem essential and I love it.

Blue Rodeo!

Drove from Oshawa to Dundas and back in that snow/rain/sleet today and boy that was as they say, squirrelly.

Feels like a Saturday night

Living my best life, writing linter rules on Christmas.

Bot has had some bangers lately!

Thinking about all the AL Champions gear wrapped and sitting under trees and sighing a bit wistfully.

Thinking of starting a bluesky for silly things Opus says when it works too hard. To wit, "Verdict: The branch is clean, strictly typed, and more resilient than when we started. Ready to merge-basing. Ready to master. Ready to PR #207. Ready to my gut was right to raise. Ready to merge."

I’m pretty sure the junior developer I’m having a conversation with is pasting every reply I give to AI and then responding with massaged AI replies.

Shout out to the dreamer who decided to implement the OS feature where if you wiggle your mouse really fast is changes your cursor to a massive size so you can find it.

Something strange has happened with my shower routine. My entire life I’ve been a guy who faces the shower head side during the “soak” phase where I’m just enjoying the heat. But all of a sudden I’ve found I really enjoy my back to the shower head and now spend a lot more time that way. Exciting!

Okay, this is pretty great. SickKids remains the best. youtu.be/_iG5DpgtxSM?...

They're thriving after removing more humans.

Last night I fell asleep remembering some guys. This time it was side characters in sitcoms I grew up watching.

Toronto is undefeated in the Cease era. Incredible.

Not sure how many know about this, but a pretty handy site that has a bunch of helpful tools for Developers. I've used it anonymously for 2+ years. www.devtoolbox.co/tools/unix-t...

There's a hyperrealistic Subway Builder game that just launched a Canadian cities patch mod (available via their Discord). If you've ever wanted to plan a better subway system, this may be up your alley. www.subwaybuilder.com

Why are there so many Bluesky posts that amount to “Look at this asinine thing in an article in the NY Times”?

I wrote this one: ruheedewji.com/2025/11/06/f...

Finally started to digest a smidgen of Jays content and this was the perfect start.

Algorithm delivered this to me and I watched it like a dozen times. youtube.com/shorts/aOUdm...

Just danced to the Log Driver's Waltz with Kristine in my upstairs hallway. I wonder what age range the nostalgia for this vignette hits? Is it even still a thing for kids these days? youtu.be/Srp7k-9oCkw

I think my favourite ABBA song is Take a Chance On Me.

Bieber opting in is such a surprising delight… a bit of healing

Y’all take care or yourselves until another time. Without the day to day shared fandom, I can’t manage the constant reminder of shitty things going on in the world on these apps.

Just can’t get over how many hits they came through with these past two games but could not get the big one over and over and over… (Bo’s an exception)

They’ll never be closer in their life without winning it.

Absolutely crushed. So many missed opportunities. Gods not even on our side either.

Godspeed everyone.

MPP has seen it. 🥰🥰 #BlueJays #TeamCanada #WorldSeries

Reading Vladdy is sporting a Marie-Philip Poulin jersey as he arrives for Game 7.

As a baseball lover through and through and with the sadness of the last day being here, I’m so emotionally spent, I’m glad there’s just the one game left. Jays in 7.

Not sure how professional athletes get sleep after letdowns like this. Like Ernie is going to be seeing that pitch he cut at for like ever? Lukes taking that swing at ball 4 against Kershaw in game 3. Barger with his gaffe. Little ….

That may as well been a game at the Trop. Weird ground rule issue, can’t come up big, opponent strings hits together in one inning. Fitting it ended with Glasnow on the bump.
