Whelp… we knew it was coming, but the Bulls are officially eliminated from a playoff spot.

Oh snap! ESPN+ is getting La Liga in an eight year deal. I’m not sure what the terms are with Bundesliga and Serie A, but even if one of those fall off it’s still a must have service for me now.

The first community grub has been added to the Multiverse Collection. If you missed the post yesterday, I’m trying to build a collection of community drawn Grubs, no artistic skill required!

NBA suffers from too many games (like MLB,) but also suffers from too many playoff teams. Bring a little bit of the wild card scenario to the NBA.

NBA play-in wrinkle idea: what if the No. 1 seed gets a bye and 7-10 fight for one last spot to play the two seed in the first round.

Playing around with mmm.page and made my own. Fun little website builder that should be fun to experiment with. Messy encouraged.

Moved my Links Ahoy page over to Raindrop, now I need to decide if I continue to embed on my site or just link to the full public page on Raindrop…

💬 Interesting line from The Economist:

Some newspapers have forbidden writers from launching personal newsletters without their permission. A tyrannical few deny their writer-serfs bylines, ensuring that the value from every article accrues to the brand and not the author.

Written by… ???

Somehow I knew as soon as I left Chicago Hop Butcher would end up opening a tap room.

Hop Butcher for the World are finally getting their own space and tap room. This is easily the best news of the year. Hands down the best NEIPA in Chicago. It’ll be on the far north side in Ravenswood and a must stop for every visit to Chicago once they open up.

Since maique and gaby have their own gluon icons now, I went ahead and made my own that matches my blog to use with Shortcuts 🤣

Probably still room to remove. Would like to keep RSS to just iPad too.

Just deleted 80% of the apps on my phone as I try to reduce it’s uses and gravitational pull. No more email or social media. This is basically all that’s left on my phone, plus a few utilities and watch apps hidden away.

Anyone have tips on finding/buying a typewriter? Either online or local to Seattle. Trying not to spend a ton of money… but don’t really know what they cost… preferably <$250 if possible…? Don’t know anything about them so it’d have to be in good shape.

I haven’t actually watched baseball this year, but I’m all for 7 inning double headers. Can this just be a staple on weekends?

The Passion Fruit + Vanilla Ginger Beer from Rachel’s in Seattle is an otherworldly beverage that I do not feel worthy of.

Watching Marvel’s Arena of Heroes presentation of the Warriors v Pelicans basketball game and it’s mostly pointless. But! I like dumb gimmicks. Although, instead of six heroes assigned to one player, it should be four heroes and one villain, all getting a player from each team.

I guess now I need to figure out how to, like, actually function as a human being again. Weird.

Well friends… I come bearing good news… After a very, very, very, very, very long search, I’ve finally received a job offer for something I actually want to do. Now it’s time to celebrate.

The NBA has this “#OnlyHere” campaign and the commercial starts, “Where else can a sun rise and buckets fall,” and I’m pretty sure anywhere buckets exist, both of those things happen. Hardware stores, garages, houses with leaky roofs #OnlyEverywhere.

The Sweet Tooth show should feel like Iggy Pop being directed by Wes Anderson wrapped in flannel. I don’t know how to describe how the trailer feels… maybe The Umbrella Academy (show), but made for babies on a faded spring day.

Multiverse has become my favorite place to read things. There’s just that little bit of extra pizzazz and personality. Like this or this or this or this or this. Just so great.
