Shout out to Alex Michelsen playing his face off at the US Open 🎾 Into the quarter finals of a grand slam, the deepest he's gotten in *any* ATP 250+ tournament. And along the way, he hasn't lost a single set. 22 years old! Keep an eye on this kid.

Absolutely gorgeous full moon here in the Milwaukee area tonight 🌕 The nice part about really hot days is the comfortably-warm evenings. Wrapping up my work day on the deck.

Something is in the air today. The people in my area are crazy. Driving into Milwaukee was a nightmare of speeding and tailgating. My wife’s restaurant is receiving calls like “Tell me your phone number” 🤔 This weather needs to warm up, y’all.

An interesting trend I've noticed recently: When managing billing information, like your credit card on file, I now have to open the mobile app to make changes. Payment methods or sometimes even entire billing management is not available via the web. Used to be totally the other way around.

🎶 As you can see I kept a record of every check in my checkered history. Check it again against your list and see consistency. I never spent a cent that wasn't mine. You sent the dogs after my scent, that's fine. 🎶

Grammar reminder: use "fewer" when you can quantify (count) the thing, and "less" when you can't. ✅ "We can run fewer ads." ✅ "We can run ads for less money." ❌ "We can run less ads for less money."

Okay hear me out Packers fans: Aaron Rodgers comes back with a one game contract. He comes in when we’re in the red zone and makes his last NFL pass a touchdown. Meanwhile, and for the remainder of the season, he’s the offensive coordinator.

TIL multiple cast members of The Pitt are not American! Kudos to their accent skills. Never had a clue after watching the first season. Whitaker (who had to change repeatedly due to various liquids) is Welsh, and Javadi (prodigal daughter of docs at the hospital) is Australian.

Nobody asked, so here’s my shower routine: - Wash face - Shampoo hair, leave it in (conditioner combo) and brush my teeth Shampoo Mohawk on occasion because sometimes you should be 8 years old again - Rinse hair, grab loofah - Top to bottom - Rinse and end Phone sometimes playing music or YouTube

A 2026 resolution of mine: share things I use and enjoy. Today I renewed my email account at Fastmail. - Avoid the Google machine eating all your data - Emails for every domain (perfect for serial project starters like me) - Calendar, too! 10% off your first year: join.fastmail.com/dc5bc18e

Fastmail – Email and calendar made better

Woof, I need to be more active on here. In general, really. My social presences have absolutely tanked in the last two months. Hoping to set up some processes to improve, mostly by adding proactive steps instead of in-the-moment reactive posting only.
