🎶 It’s wild to think that all of these Zao albums came out within three years, each being a masterpiece of hardcore/proto-metalcore.

Guy next to me hacking and coughing and watching India nationalist videos. 😬😷

Banking fragility is kinda like inflation: hyping it is largely what makes it true.

But our news ecosystem design encourages making these stories viral.

⚽️ another example of the offsides rule doing nothing beneficial for the game.

He wasn’t hanging out at the other end of the pitch. When he got the ball others were farther ahead than him, but onside.

📑 Sunday Quote:

🎶 Furnace Fest is looking pretty rad.

Also….TFU? I’ve been dreaming of a Demon Hunter show where they are like “nah, we’re gonna do some TFU stuff”.

Beautiful springwinter here this morning:

• wood ducks on the turtle log

What odds would you put on Google failing in < 5 years?

They’ve killed everything interesting they’ve created (reader, wave, music, etc.). Search has become near-worthless. Prices keep jacking up. They’ve bled a lot of great talent.

Maybe an AI Hail Mary. What am I missing?

📺 interesting! Axios Streaming Optimizer to figure out when you could turn on and off services based on which shows you watch.

⚽️ Sure you could rehire #Berhalter but just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should.

He’s not the calibre of coach the team needs for the next part of the #USMNT journey. He’s shown that a number of ways.

I guess you could say DST is going pretty well.

Had restless sleep and nightmares about work and covid.

⚽️ not sure #IXI really earned that stoppage-time penalty, but glad it worked out to claw a draw. #USL

⚽️ are you ready for some futbol? 🎶

The #USL starts tonight and my #IXI are away.

Many (most? all? just check livesoccertv?) are on ESPN+

Using @netnewswire and @sod’s “conversation on micro.blog” version of feeds is by far the best way to read “the timeline”.

Don’t lose my place. Don’t check too often because I know it will be there waiting for me when I am ready. Can quickly go to the right spot to reply.

1. Post a great album with no explanation.
2. Tag others to do the same.
