One Foot Tsunami, Paul Kafasis:

It’s been a great Christmas this year. Opened presents yesterday. Walked around the La Arboretum light show. Took not one, but two naps today. Just lovely being able to do nothing.

This year’s Lego Christmas present.

Can’t wait to build this one and add it to the collection.

Listen to your body.

They call this journalism?

Republicans calling Trump’s tax returns ‘private’ don’t understand privacy

I don’t understand this article. There’s nothing here.

I must be dense.

I do not understand the freak out about Tik Tok and user data. Why is it worse for a Chinese company to access American’s location data that American companies sell willingly?

I must be missing something about this the moral panic.

What’s wrong with the internet?

No.

You just ate a pan of cornbread for breakfast.

Uh, Tidal still exists.

Who knew?

I’m in the middle of this week’s ATP and Marco complained about having to list Overcast on multiple App stores and my initial thought was (and still is):

“Why?”

Marco.
You are in charge of your product. No one else.
Sell it where you want to. Not where you do not.

Elon Tries (Badly) To Defend The Banning Of Journalists As Twitter Starts Blocking Links & Mentions Of Mastodon

Just like watching the Trump political era:

You are always wondering:
How it happened
How long it will continue to happen
How it will end
Why it hasn’t ended already.

There is a Barbie movie.
There is a Barbie trailer.
Harley Quinn for young girls? Maybe?
