🎥 Finished watching: 🔗 Shelter … Jason doing Jason and Bill doing Bill. Meanwhile so many movies I actually want to watch … what am I doing wrong?
🎥 Finished watching: 🔗Justice League .. though I use the term ‘watching’ loosely. I fell asleep.
💬 This I knew .. but I didn’t save it for the knowledge. I saved it for the writing.
💬 Sadly, not just tech.
Matt’s board repeats Sam’s board.
Matt repeats Sam.
Only difference so far that this occupant of the peanut gallery observes?

👁️ Earlier today, I was told that ‘A1’, pronounced ‘AONE’, is very dangerous. She’d read an article in Stuff warning that ‘A1’ posed a threat to the human race.
She was surprised I hadn’t read it. Her understanding was that I knew about this sort of thing.

🔗 Daring Fireball: ‘Modern Day Typographer’
.. WHAT ⬆️ HE ⬆️ 💬
Charlie: He said “Now what sort of husband was he”? “Oh”, she said “one of the best. You couldn’t wish for a better one”. She said, “We used to lie in bed, Sunday mornings, and hear the church bells ringing. We used to go up with the ding and come down with the dong”. And she’d say “if it hadn’t been for that fire engine going by, at the bloody time, he’d be alive now”.
Once you’ve traversed the list twice or thrice, he says, “you will be able to use them whenever you wish.”
