Built an app and it accidentally got traction with a small but appreciative user base. Now they’re distracting me from leaving it half finished and moving on to the next thing.

Bug-a-salt is the key. It’s especially satisfying when you snipe one out of the air.

Just saw Clicks launched a new phone with Niagara launcher as the default. Physical keyboard, expandable storage and a headphone jack too.

I had a massive consumption problem. Especially on hobby spending. This year I uninstalled every retail app and unsubscribed from every promotional email. No exceptions. No more notifications about limited time offers, sales, bundles, last chances, etc.

Tell yourself that if you really need it, you’ll pay full price for it. If you aren’t willing to pay full price for it, then ask yourself if you really need it. Force yourself to log into the site from your browser when you buy it rather than having it be two taps away.

I’ve also taken a more critical look at the YouTubers I follow to see which ones are spending more time talking about promoted products or the monetary value of things VS their quality and utility.

Almost every interaction on the internet is now designed to separate you from your money. Remember that and you’ll realize how much we’re being treated like lab rats.

I basically cut my spending in half, which was good because my income was lower this year. Despite that, I was able to save more.

Nintendo is a blight on this earth and must be abolished.

With bony hands I hold my partner, On soulless feet we cross the floor, The music stops as if to answer, An empty knocking at the door. It seems his skin was sweet as mango, When last I held him to my breast, But now, we dance this grim fandango, And will four years until we rest.

I apparently thought him and Jeremy Sisto were the same person my entire life.

Only if you have a work visa. Don’t want foreigners stealing crow work.

They do but first they need to have to get a rib removed

Shut up and take my money in 4 installments that I will be unable to pay back later.

I obsess over half of these things and my kids’ mom the other. Our kids never stood a chance.

Wow I was a day one Steam Machine, Frame and Controller buyer until this. Maybe people like me are the problem.

Straight from the playbook. Announce something terrible, then back off with something bad. Everyone calls it a win.

See: Wizards if the Coast, Unity

I prefer to put my hands on the floor and lift my feet up against the wall.

Now kith

I really like when British people impersonate an American accent.

I give small monthly donations to three things:

• Wikipedia
• EFF
• Internet Archive

That movie came out in 2002. Crazy

The ending of Andor was so good that I haven’t been able to watch another show. It followed through and paid off on every single thread with brilliant performances from everyone involved. It will be a generation before we get something so we’ll made again.

Yes, parenting existed before iPads. That doesn’t imply that everything they used to do to cope with similar situations was correct, or better. Previous generations of parents used to do things that would terrify us now.
