Speaking of comics, switching from issues to trades is more difficult than expected. With so many unread, making the switch and then keeping track of trades is it’s own challenge. With Comixology subs it’s an easy set and forget. Until you end up with 100+ unread waiting for you.

If Marvel Unlimited was on a three month delay rather than six, it’d be a no-brainer for me. I might even pay a little more. At six I get a little hung up on it, maybe irrationally… Once I catch up on my current unread list in Comixology, I’ll probably subscribe anyways…

Second issue of my newsletter is out… Two weeks in a row. Just kind of throwing pasta at the keyboard and seeing what breaks at the moment.

This Jamaica/St Kitts T20 match has been tremendous so far.

I feel like $5 is cheap enough that Apple doesn’t need to give away a free year with hardware purchases. Curious to see if that deal is still around a year from now. With that being said, as an iPhone Upgrade customer, I love it.

Going with the iPhone 11 (non-Pro). Feels odd not getting the best and biggest (typing this on a Xs Max), but it seems like the right fit. Cutting my iPhone Upgrade Program fee almost in half is a big win too. And I’m going with Purple, obviously.

$4.99 says Apple was planning on going $12+ for Apple TV+ until Disney+ made a splash at $6.99. Plus.

So I sent out my first newsletter… It’s basically the same as my last post. I’m still not sure I like the idea of certain stuff be away in its own silo, so for now it’s basically longer blog post syndication.

Midsommar reminds us that our tendency to ignore the horrors around us may lead us down the path to our own undoing.

I’ve been trying to switch from issues to trades because I tend to fall behind on issues (currently 100+ unread in Comixology), but making the switch and keeping track of trades is a lot more tedious than just subscribing to series’ with Comixology…

And the PL is back! Liverpool basically playing my ideal lineup right now, Henderson being the only outlier. Love seeing Origi in. Hope he gets more playing time over Mane this year. Would like to see Ox get some chances this season and hopefully Gomez can stay healthy.

Thinking of starting a newsletter. The idea would be to pick an article/podcast/topic as a jumping off point into related thoughts, similar to this, while also curating some links and images (my own and others). You can preemptively sign-up here, but it’s still in early stages.

Warren and Sanders dominated last night. Tonight was much weirder. Inslee, Castro, Yang, and Gabbard all stood out to me. Biden did what he could to defend against all the attacks. Booker and Gillibrand did solid. And Harris seemed more on de Blasio’s level…

It’s here! One complete listen through and it does not disappoint.
