granola + fruit + yoghurt = breakfast

maybe also frittata made at home and cut into squares?

Lots of good frozen microwave food at Trader Joe's if that's acceptable to you; my kids still eat the hell out of the soup dumplings

Thankfully you like some interesting artists! Not gonna say who I listened to for love of my kids cuz I don't want to yuck anybody's yum but love is real (and now I listen to my kid's college radio show every Wednesday a.m. and sometimes I hear songs they first heard from me 🥰🥲)

Or if they can't normalize the right, they'll demonize the left to try to even things out, like today's editorial "Mamdani is the Left's Trump" like, oh really? Mamdani's a convicted tax cheat and pedophile rapist? Missed that somehow.

Exactly! I started this back when Google search was still good and still viewed as a generally good company but folks were starting to use google docs, gmail, android phone, Nest thermostats, and I thought mmm I don't want any one company to have access to so many parts of my life, that seems bad

Yes, it's all humans have the right to dignity and freedom over their own bodies and their lives. That's my issue.

Okay, thanks! Just wanted to check that my kneejerk policy of not using sourcing all my tech from the same company wasn't leading me astray this time.

Serious question: why use Chrome? I never have; just figured Google wants me to, so it's probably best if I avoid it. What am I missing, if anything?

Envy is just hostile self-pity (speaking as a fellow sufferer.) It's a terrible way to live.

Envy will eat you alive if you can't figure out what need it's feeding for you, and find another way to meet that need.

Every person I've told about your podcast either already knew about it and we got to pleasurably enthuse about how good it was, or went off and gave it a listen and then got back to me with how it was not just as good as I'd promised but even better. ALL the musicians I know are fans.
