@grahamruthven.bsky.social , when you’re not reporting, recording, or buying shirts, I’d love to hear your feedback on these ME tweaks.

I think you're forgetting the peak internet.

Nice work! But also, not enough is said about how 30 teams is TOO MANY TEAMS!!!
It's almost like we could have 2 divisions of 15 teams each or something...

I want whatever the 6% of dems who haven't heard of Zuck are having.

He even dresses like an evil warlord. How is this our life?

It's the maintenance that really gets me on this stuff. I love self-hosting media through tools like Plex but then some dependency fails and I spend my movie-watching time fixing Docker files and end up re-renting media I already paid for on Prime.

I have a weird aversion to repeating subscriptions (though I do pay some) but would gladly pay $1 per podcast or quality article from many creators/publishers. Am I the weird one here, or is there an untapped market/revenue model here?

It was so good to see you, Sandra, and everyone else! The stuffing was delicious and certainly worth the WAY TOO COLD weather in Chicago.

We also listened to the sequel (Enemies), which was just as funny and I also recommend. Johnny Marciano is one of those rare authors of juvenile fiction that can be entertaining AND meaningful at the same time.

The amount of ways to express yourself through stamps is truly mind-bending. And hear I thought paper mail was dead?

This team is so exciting. I love Colwill in FM24 and am happy to see my in-game version of him coming into his own IRL. If Tuchel figures out how to use Palmer as effectively as Chelsea has, England is poised for a real #goldengeneration.

Too many game designers tunnel on game mechanics and neglect aesthetics/joy of just playing. Wingspan does both well!

I agree completely. Given how stubborn he has been about other things like running for a second term I worried he wouldn’t pardon Hunter out of pride and I’m glad that he is being human here.

“Maker time” hats in the style of “it’s Miller time” ads would be good too.

The whole article is worth reading, because it really goes deep on examining so much of what we mean (and don’t) when it comes to apologizing and various social miracles and mysteries like them.

Good apologies lead to forgiveness, which is ultimately up to the apology-receiver. They must acknowledge that we have taken responsibility for their pain but also absolve us of that responsibility.
It can be “like trying execute an alley-oop with a player who refuses to get anywhere near you.”

“Apologizing is not like having a conversation - it’s like taking a test.”
We must accept responsibility for the effects of our actions, which may/not have been our intent. We must explain those actions w/o “making excuses” and convey that we won’t do the thing again in the same circumstances.

This sent me down a very depressing “anti-woke children’s books” rabbit hole and found Elephants are Not Birds (www.goodreads.com/book/show/60...) and now I’m sad. I guess it’s only a matter of time before the author, Ashley St. Clair, is named undersecretary for early childhood education.

I’ll die on the hill of “Google Wave” was actually cool, but I know I’m the only one.
