The other day my wife looked at the pond in the park nearby and exclaimed “why are the Canadian geese still here?!?” Without missing a beat I responded “tariffs.” It took a few seconds for her to recover from the amazing response. Or she was trying to recover from a groan. Either way it’s a win.

Tried the new @plex.tv mobile app yesterday and immediately forced quit on it. What the hell is that? It's too busy. Too many steps to get to my stuff. The old app wasn't perfect, but it was usable.

I feel like it’s been April Fools Day since January 20th because I can’t believe what is happening to this country is actually happening.

Look at this and the red states impacted. It’s going to be interesting watching the fallout of this. Personally, as someone that works for a university that is heavily hit by this, and married to a researcher who’s livelihood is dependent on grant funding I’m still trying to not panic over it.

Partially checked off a bucket list item today when we took a short detour and visited Metropolis, IL. I wish we had more time to spend as it was just a “jump out of the car, take some photos, and get back on the road” stop. As a lifelong Superman fan, this was so cool. I will be back one day.

Is this the number 0 or the letter O? The @ncaa.bsky.social March Madness app on Apple TV doesn’t make any distinction when logging into your tv provider. It’s the letter O BTW. I tried half a dozen times with a zero before figuring this out.

Living with my ADHD brain is like my thoughts are butterflies and if I don't catch them they're gone. Also my butterfly net has a big hole in it. It came up as I was talking with my wife & started to say something, then we talked about something else and I had no idea what I was going to bring up.

Snoopy is not a fan of his new fake Crocs, but his feet don’t hurt from the ice any more so he deals with it.

I’m a “dire threat to the American people” when I don’t have my ADHD meds. Everyone (especially me) is much happier when I’m on them.

I don't know what movie they watched. Captain America: Brave New World was a lot of fun, and a thriller that reminded me of Tom Clancy stories. Some great acting between Ford and Mackie. It's up there with Winter Soldier as my favorite MCU movie.

I woke up with a migraine today and after forgetting my ADHD meds and nothing to do, my brain decided it was time to work on organizing and tagging a bunch of audiobooks I got on Humble Bundle years ago. And to find complicated ways to do it. Well, it's halfway done and my brain is satisfied now.

I have no idea about who anyone was in the halftime show, but it was entertaining. The production efforts going into it were amazing.

Honest question. If republicans say they are textualist in reading the constitution, why are they supporting executive orders at all? I know it’s been accepted as a power forever, but where in the constitution does it say that’s even a thing?

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

We try to keep politics out of our transformers podcast but unfortunately couldn’t this week. I feel like we handled it as best as we could, and stuck to the news itself, but I worry for the comic industry. https://bleedingcool.com/comics/comic-books-set-to-rocket-in-price-next-week-over-tariffs/

My current #homelab project is cleaning up the network mess where my fiber comes into the house. Top down is my new Unifi Cloud Gateway Ultra, a TL-SG105E switch, then a TL-SG108PE switch. The other 10" rack I did has 2 mini PCs & another SG108PE. This time I put it together in tinkercad first.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
