A full stream of microposts.
🎥 Loved the Knives Out movie. Smart dialogue, unpredictable plot and overall fun ride.
Coldplay Tiny Desk Concert is just too good.
Went to fill up tank and buy some pharmacy stuff next to the old office. Wanted some geographical familiarity even among standardized stores. It was comforting.
The Natalia Lafourcade Tiny Desk Concert is Robie’s new soundtrack on our school commute:
I think he has a small crush, but he also really likes the songs. Enjoying discovering music with him.
The idea of a mini Mac mini (Mac nano) excites me to no end.
Flatbread/Arepa was added to Emoji 13.0 in 2020. I really thought that we would celebrate this alongside a free Venezuela when this got started last year. Sigh. Still, I’ll take it!
🎙 Enjoyed Guy Kawasaki’s interview of Stephen Wolfram on his podcast. Recommended.
Robie’s officially started his Skywalker saga movie canon with Star Wars Episode I — The Phantom Menace.
Hard to believe the movie is 20 years old.
📺 Started Schitt’s Creek with Ana. I can see it getting great.
Happy new year. So much to be grateful for. Last week of December arrived too quickly with lots of family around, so didn’t get a chance to look back at 2019 or ahead at 2020. Giving myself a few days extension to think about this things.
🚲 We went from “Abu don’t let go!” to “get out of the way!!!”. Great day.
Speaking of gifts, here’s what Ana and Santa got me for Xmas:
- 2 x PS4 Controllers to play Apple Arcade with Robie
- Sunski Headlands Sunglasses -i
- Grey Fellow Carter Mug
- Palmpress brewer
- Millenium Falcon bottle opener
- R2D2 Socks
Back to work and trying out my new Palmpress Brewer. Still need to dial-it-in, but not a bad first pass.
Brent DiCrescenzo’s original Kid A review on pitchfork.com:
This is an emotional, psychological experience. Kid A sounds like a clouded brain trying to recall an alien abduction. It’s the sound of a band, and its leader, losing faith in themselves, destroying themselves, and subsequently rebuilding a perfect entity. In other words, Radiohead hated being Radiohead, but ended up with the most ideal, natural Radiohead record yet.
Some things are not always true. Some people are more in-tune with what will become truth. Time is the only tool that separate the fakes from those with a gifted intuition.
🎬 Loved Rise of SkyWalker.
One small step for Bettina taking a pic, one giant leap for my camera app.
I’m speaking on marvelous accent without the slightest english.
🎥 Once Upon a Time in Hollywood was not what I expected it, but I enjoyed it a lot.
My girls ❤️.
Thought I’d have to save for a year go get a Niche Zero grinder, but seems I’d only need half one to get Fellow’s upcoming Ode Brew. Nice design, and the features look great.
Family arrives to Costa Rica on Friday. We show them waterfalls and rainforest on Saturday. And on Sunday… Episode IX. Tickets for The Rise of Skywalker are ready.
Yet another reason to visit Disney again and again.
When you’re a fake handyman, just use longer screws to fix things� Let the wall deal with your ineptitude.
We might need to go back to Disney World sooner than expected.
When they call you out for being a fake barista…
📺 Started Watchmen. Yikes.
🎧 Really enjoying my wired SteelSeries Arctis 1 for work. Super confortable, good enough sound, and the mic is excellent for calls on a noisy office environment.
Kenji’s exercise and portion control result are a good reminder to reinvent your lifehacks.
Yes, Shakira’s latest concert is my playlist today. My hips don’t lie.
No trailer for me, but this is a great movie poster.
Palmpress looks interesting — and I just found out Jessica Do Tully was on the same Babson accelerator group with my wife.
