My wife just pronounced Freecycle as freesicle like she was saying popsicle and it’s really bothering my neurodivergent brain. This one of those “chose your battle” moments I should just ignore right?

On my iPad there is an icon that opens the app drawer like this. Is there a way to get this icon on the iPhone Home Screen? Having to swipe through all my Home Screens to get to the app drawer is annoying the hell out of me.

I have always been an Android phone guy and I just got an iPhone 16 Plus. Let’s see how much I like it. So far I’m struggling with the interface in general, nothing feels intuitive.

I know that people get mad when they mess with great movies...But what if they remastered The Polar Express? Use the same MoCap and keep it shot for shot but just redo all the characters to bring it to modern graphical capabilities. Not doing stuff like Lucas did but more like a video game remaster.

Back in 2000, I made my first holiday card. I’ve skipped a couple years along the way, but it has been a fun annual tradition for the last 24 years. Here’s a thread of (almost) all of them. This will go on a while, so feel free to mute the thread.

Watching the second episode of SNL from the first season...It's weird. 12 minutes in and Paul Simon has performed 3 times and for some reason Randy Newman appears and performs a song.

Frogpants peeps, I had a weird dream. My sleep podcast ended early,around 2am, and started to play TMS, then I began to dream about being in the room while the show was being made with @scottjohnson.zip @coverville.com and @wickedkitten13.bsky.social, I was mad though because they were ignoring me.

Does the FBI offer 50k rewards for all street gun murder info, or just high profile ones involving millionaire CEO’s?
