Game 7, let’s go

Might start drawing my own political cartoons.

Fall riding is the best riding

How much did CZ pay Trump for his pardon?

A director I worked with last year clued me into this Steven Soderbergh blog post about Raiders of the Lost Ark. My respect for Spielberg's visual storytelling tripled after viewing it. Soderbergh converted the movie to black and white and set it to a Trent Reznor soundtrack and... it's incredible. For any film nerds, it's a masterclass in shot blocking. https://extension765.com/blogs/soderblog/raiders

Haha, this made my night. Pope Leo yelling “They lost!” to the desperate cubs fans that want to claim him as a fellow fan. https://x.com/whitesox/status/1978521873521479871?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1978521873521479871%7Ctwgr%5E45781e4afd10c76db3f78d51420eabdb823cb62c%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nytimes.com%2Fathletic%2F6720276%2F2025%2F10%2F15%2Fpope-leo-cubs-comments-white-sox%2F

Pretty long winded way of saying ChatGBT is going to be a sex-bot now.

iPhone 200mm lens. Getting to the point that my other cameras are obsolete even though I love them more.

Indoor season is almost here. I want to start a bitcoin zwift cycling group. Any zwift riders out there? Theme: proof of work Ride ideas: weekend rides that match the price of bitcoin. $1k = 1km.

The Feds go to Chicago

Sometimes I forget the basic lessons I’ve learned over the years. I’ve been struggling to write a thing for a few days… Finally I left the desk, went outside for some sun and air and walked over to a nearby coffee shop. I finished writing the damn thing before my coffee was ready. Change of scenery is a mostly reliable creative trigger. And writing on paper instead of on a computer always helps too.

@hal is blowing up my feed

If you’re using the world’s hardest form of money for your jpeg storage, you are officially an asshole.

Former classmate I haven’t talked to in 20 years randomly emailed me to offer his financial planning services. I’m good man, I save in bitcoin.

Regarding the government shutdown, republicans are saying the democrats want to fund healthcare for illegal immigrants which is straight fiction. Meanwhile the democrats are saying the republicans are cancelling Obamacare - also not true. They’re just letting a Covid-era tax credit expire on the exact terms that democrats wrote into it. Both sides are lying. Both are engaged in performative BS at the expense of all Americans.
