Looking forward to your thoughts, Abigail
A pair of text messages which read: Hi Zachariah, this is Abigail with Thrive Mpls. The upcoming mayoral election is critical, and we need your help to reelect Jacob Frey. I'm supporting Jacob because Minneapolis needs steady, thoughtful, and honest leadership. Mayor Frey has always stood up for what's right and has the right priorities: improving public safety, making housing affordable, and improving city services in every neighborhood. Can we count on your support for Jacob Frey? Stop2Quit Frey has had eight years to accomplish these supposed priorities of his. Do you suppose he is incompetent or just a liar?

Unreal. Google's "best movies of all time", based on whatever nutso algorithm is tied to my (scant) browsing history, includes Scary Movie, The Wizard of Oz (no, not that one), War of the Worlds (no, not that one), and FOUR different mediocre sword and shield historic epics from 2004-2005.
A screenshot of a Google search for the "best movies of all time". The "Top picks" are: Scary Movie (2000) Alexander (2004) The Wizard of Oz (1925) King Arthur (2004) Kingdom of Heaven (2005) Troy (2004) H.G. Wells' The War of the Worlds (2005, Pendragon Pictures)

I have been showing my children a lot of classic films. It’s been going well, they’ve enjoyed themselves, but now they apparently think it is time for payback.

Today, my mom called the HBO zombie show “This Was Us”, and now my mind is racing.
A modified promotional shot for the show This Is Us. The central character has had their head replaced with a zombie head. The “Is” in the title can been crossed out in red and replaced with “Was”.

The hate preachers had a full brass band drowning them out. They were pretty good too.
Trombone, tuba, trumpet, drum and flute players blocking the view of some hateful bullshit so-called Christians.

I don’t know who this is, but apparently he did something widely applaudable 25 minutes ago. Congrats to Josh Allen and his family.

This is why I regret choosing Expo.

Taelmoor is a small project with very little revenue. I have just few hours a week to work on it. A few months ago I lost a couple of weekends updating to Expo 51 and they have already bricked Expo Go until I put another weekend into updates I don’t want or need.

Kept us waiting for a bit, but we eventually got quite the show on Typo Lake in Minnesota.

If you are a small Android developer, watch your ass. If you do not keep up with your emails, @ggl.bsky.social will PERMANENTLY delete your developer account and delist every app you ever made for "inactivity".

They sent three emails over two months. We missed them. That's it.
A screen shot of the Google Play developer console with the status "Account closed". The details section includes the following text: "Your developer account has been closed because it was not being used. Warnings and information about this policy were sent to the account owner's email address and anyone holding account admin permission. The developer account registration fee is not refundable. To start publishing apps on Google Play, create a new account."
