If you’re roughly my age, it’s wild to reflect on the optimism for the future Americans felt when Obama was elected — young Americans spontaneously took to the streets to celebrate! — and contrast with what we face today. The falloff over the past 18 years is hard to process.

1973-11-14 San Diego kind of morning.

This skeet works on many levels.

I mean, you take a Pomeranian bowling.

Lots more overtaking and charging strategy with the new 50/50 powertrains in F1.

Timely.

Peloton PB PR

223kj, my 20’ PR!

So fun seeing all my Peloton instructors together in one room.

Homemade chocolate chip cookies.

Homemade sourdough discard dark chocolate chip and maldon salt cookies FTW.

Althea is a really good song.

Me too.

Dog loss cartoon

Losing a dog you care about is incredibly hard. An absolute gut punch.

Echo and Rosewood in same set

So, Echo/Rosewood on 3/5/22 and Rosewood/Echo on 3/9/22? That proximity was lost on me until today, and makes me wonder whether the two are actually somewhat related. Not quite as a suite but at least as companion pieces or kissing cousins.

See also 9/5/23 and 10/3/23.

Ride the Lightning vs. Puppets?

IWATS

Dumbest timeline.

I’m more worried that this reflects those pre-reads.

This is disgusting as a principle. It’s horrible as messaging.

“Talk Show Host,” Radiohead

Now playing.

(The entire B sides collection on the deluxe edition is great. Romeo oh Romeo…)
