So difficult

Used to be able to close out and it would refresh things. But even that isn’t getting rid of this. It’s a tool that I like, but it’s hard for me to see a notification badge and not click on the app to take care of it. Haha

My Activity notification badge is not going away in Slack. My brain doesn't like when notifications are still there. "Ta da" is said when a magic trick works. This is like putting a rabbit in a hat and pulling out a stuffed animal.

Andrea Bocelli singing at the Olympics giving me all the feels

11”. Sleet and the snow is settling a bit.

Double digits now. 10” on average (blowing snow is tricky). That’s 25.4 cm @letorey.co.uk

Some do. But why make sense with measurements? Haha

Approaching double digits. 9.75”. 1” in last hour near Pittsburgh.

We’ve been reduced to nothing but avatars on a screen who scream into the void/at other avatars. When will we see other people as humans again?

Congratulations @srmoelhave.bsky.social! Thanks so much for being a part of this journey with us and for the kind words about the course! You can now theme the world 😉!

Anyone else think the new iOS 26.2 animations feel a bit long and broken at times? Unlocking my phone, it feels like it takes a while for the tiles to fall into place

AI and Design Systems Course with Brad Frost, TJ Pitre, and Ian Frost An in-depth course on AI and design systems: core concepts, technologies and tools, environments and setup, implementation, and maintenance.

HOLY SHIT WE ARE COOKING ON OUR AI & DESIGN SYSTEMS COURSE!

@ian-frost.bsky.social @tpitre.bsky.social and I had a fantastic live session with our preorder community yesterday, and we just got off an epic (and meta!) working session.

Thanks Stranger Things for being a great show over the years. Takes a lot for me to watch an entire series, but it was well worth the watch.

Your happy place

Grateful to be a part of this performance in Berlin with @bradfrost.com. While this was a representation of Brad’s life, it brought back a lot of memories for me playing pieces of the songs that we grew up with. We woke up to Spacehog’s “In The Meantime” as our alarm everyday for a long time.

The most Mike Tomlin Steelers way of making the playoffs right there. My heart

Just finished the “John Candy: I Like Me” documentary. Hard not to tear up during it. Always loved his movies and hearing about him as a person from legendary actors and his family makes me love him even more. Good lessons to work hard, be present, and be kind to those you interact with.

Christmas Vacation movie with quote “He worked really hard, Grandpa.” “So do washing machines.”

The best

I was hoping this post would be about Bruce Springsteen’s “Santa Claus Is Comin’ To Town” boosting your 2025 mood

If I am lucky enough to make it to 84, let me be as amazing as Darlene Love is performing here. This brings me so much joy. m.youtube.com/watch?v=9u6a...

Despite trying to correct my son, I’ll certainly accept him saying “Poop Bear” when talking about Winnie the Pooh.

Anyone else dislike grass showing when there’s a good bit of snow, so you shovel other snow on top of to “fix” it?

Planes, Trains and Automobiles has been a Thanksgiving tradition for a long time now. So good.

Just Brad and I fist fighting for discontinued TVs
