Weaning myself off of #productivity/note-taking apps in favor of pen & paper feels very healthy so far… there's an elegance to it that's alluring. Looking forward to transiting to majority #analog by this time next year! Who's with me??

The biggest specialty #coffee show in Asia starts TOMORROW here in #tokyo! I'm looking forward to playing a larger role in my company's operations and events this year. I can't wait to make coffee for fine people from all over the world once again! #SCAJ #specialtycoffee #barista

Having trouble finding any English info on these banger #sneakers my partner got for me… picked them up at ABC Mart Grand Stage in Ginza and I'm more than pleased! The included speed hooks are a game changer. #nike #JAPAN

My newest companion. I'm already having a wonderful time imagining what future members could fit into this beautiful &Liebe pen case! #fountainpen #stationery

Great evening with my partner. Resident Evil on its opening day in Japan, writing with my new Sailor Pro Gear, and craft beer in an unfamiliar part of Tokyo. #fountainpen #craftbeer #residentevil #tokyo #JAPAN

After stumbling upon the track "Fruit Salad Sunday" by Casiopea, I can't help but picture this song rolling over credits on a movie after the most fucked in thing just happened to the main character 🙂

Officially a "big boy" #fountainpen owner.

Couldn't be like this on my days off, could it?

Chinese #judo-ka catching a DQ by doing a "Mike Tyson" wasn't what I was expecting to see this afternoon… 🧛‍♀️ #asiangames #nagoya

My beautiful partner participated in the Asia Games in Nagoya as a Kurash fighter. She's always my champion… #blog #pika #kurash #japan

@tapbots.com Pastebot 3 is eating up a lot of cpu usage percentage. On startup, it usually is taking up 75% of the % CPU, vastly more than any other app or process on my Mac. Severe battery drain follows with the app running. Known issue? I’m on an M2 2022 MacBook Air with 16GB of memory.

I’ve been needing to take more time for myself to create/express a lot of what I’ve been feeling and what’s going on in my life (as well as justify my subscription to Pika by the wonderful team at @goodenough.us). Hopefully I’ll be consistent with medication and able to keep this inspiration alive!

I have these followers here on Bluesky and while I’m glad to have them… are most of them even real?

Currently begging for a decent iPad app for Bluesky…

dude turn on the news. any channel

It’s been five years since Alex Jones lost InfoWars to the Sandy Hook families. As the verdict came down, he asked: “Do these people actually believe they’re getting any money?” He hasn't paid them a penny. Well, The Onion is going pay them anyway. The new InfoWars begins July 2nd at 8 p.m. ET.

I know Calvin’s dad is already having a moment, but every terrible “outsource precious and fleeting moments with your children to tech so that you can spend more time on your work” pitch makes me think of that one strip I never really cared about as a kid, but care a lot about as an adult.

As if I needed less of a reason to finally get a Switch 2… #zelda

They say things often get worse before they get better… but seriously. That’s enough.

I remember Felix for #Appdotnet and how exciting it was to experience third party development for a new social platform. I wish there were more Bluesky clients to choose from...

This scene from Rugrats will ALWAYS be relevant.

What a shameful exercise in performative religiosity and piety 😳

😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Hatred, ignorance, fear, greed, and discrimination are viruses, magnified by suffering, carried in buckets, spilled onto the world. We cannot eliminate them by actions that magnify hatred, ignorance, fear, greed, discrimination and suffering - only by actions that relieve them.

And there it is …

Now that CNN and WBD are set to become state media in a sale to Paramount/Oracle/TikTok, it is especially important to support independent media. Off the top of my head: www.thehandbasket.co 404media.co www.garbageday.email Add your favorites in the replies. Fuck state-backed media monopolies.

Happy birthday to me 🎂
