I just watched Perfect Days. It was simply excellent. I can’t recommend it enough.🍿

Supreme Court essentially killing regulation is bad, NY Times saying Biden should resign because of one bad debate while saying nothing about Trump and his convictions is insane, and Martin Mull was great on VEEP.

I can’t recall the last time we had a Spring this pleasant in NYC.

Kathy Hochul’s decision to β€œpause” congestion pricing in NYC is cowardly, disingenuous, and wrong.

It reminds me of the decision Michael Bloomberg (of whom I am no fan) made banning smoking in bars and restaurants. The critics all came out saying it would hurt those businesses. Of course, the opposite happened.

It’s the same with congestion pricing: It won’t harm business, it will ultimately help them. A lot. There are many examples of that kind of article if you look around.

It’s extra frustrating as we see more and more European cities ban cars to simply wonderful results.

I would bet money the people who influenced Hochul don’t even come into the city.

Feels like Blogrolls could be the solution to bad search engines.* β€œHere are some vetted, trusted sources even if they are deindexed from the search engines.”

The battery alone in this new Chevy must weigh more than non-EV cars in total.

Paul Waldman’s post on The New York Times is right on the money. The Times has an outsized amount of influence and I really wonder why it wields it the way it does.

Not sure how this particular video popped up in front of me of, but holy hell do I love Peep Show. I think it’s time for a re-watch.

I’ve found that if you want to know how Apple works and what Steve Jobs thought about a topic, just listen to him. He really did explain it all very clearly. It’s also something to listen to Swisher’s dumb questions/comments.

I’ve never wanted to be a librarian more.

TIL I am not capable of working at The Waffle House. I just sat down from separating the laundry because it was overwhelming.

It’s funny that Amazon is giving up on walking out when Apple stores have had it for years.

β€œThis is some bullshit!,” Merrick Garland, presumably.

Our media will be our downfall. Part whocankeeptrack?

A lot of people (all smarter than me) are very perplexed by the Apple lawsuitt brought forth by the U.S. DOJ. I wonder if this office shutting down is the answer to this and many other confusing statements by members of Congress when it comes to technology.

β€œThis is some bullshit!," Merrick Garland, presumably.

A quick follow-up to a post I wrote about years ago: Joni Mitchell et al., return to Spotify. Ah, well.

We watched American Fiction last night. It was excellent. Jeffrey Wright was so damned good. πŸ‘

πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ Good for these folks. I hope to see more unions in the tech and publishing space.

Kids today! Are so awesome!
