I’m still minimizing exposure to indoor crowds. But because I’ve got a dope job with flexibility and work life balance, coupled with The Davis Theater being in the neighborhood, I’m gonna slip out for a matinee of Sinners on Monday! First movie in FOREVER!

Went to the Harry Potter Shop here in Chicago. Videos to follow.
2x - Butter Beers 1x - Hedwig Cupcake
Price? $40. Straight up larceny.

This came in today and I’m about to change my son’s life FOR. EVER. It should only take a month or so to get through all the rules….

My cancer tree rings are almost gone on one hand.
Compared to a few months ago.

I’ve been using Zettlekasten as a note taking methodology for a little over a year I think. This post is a great post-mortem on someone’s ZK setup and what failed for them.

Season 4 of Lost is when there’s an unreasonable number of people keeping secrets, and an equally unreasonable number of people not getting shot for keeping those secrets. Benjamin Linus should have been killed 12 times by now.

First game of the season with the whole family. Go CUBS!!

I still subscribe to a physical copy of the Chicago Sun Times on Sundays. One of my favorite things is watching my son read the comics in the morning, in his robe, like an old man.

A new rule for Oscar voting.
When the Academy announced that, starting next year, Oscar voters will actually have to watch all the movies in a category before making their final-round picks

Enjoying some local shopping with my daughter. And Independent Book Store Day. No car Lincoln Square is kinda nice. Not like you ever get parking anyways.

The problem I keep running into with battling cancer. Even when things are going GREAT, you do a little bit of research on a small symptom and you become instantly overwhelmed by the number of things that can go wrong in your fight.

Mixed day. Started with a stressful meeting in the morning. Got a bit of work done. Cubs game was on a long rain delay but finally got started around 3:30pm. Went with my buddy Shawn so it was cool for it to just be us so we could catch up. Bout to make some popcorn and watch Lost.

A $5000 baby bonus sounds like the worst pay day loan ever.

Pete Hegseth’s departing Chief of Staff. Only the brightest. No DEI/woke shit here.
During that meeting, “he turned [and] he goes, ‘Can I just tell everyone around this table that I just took an enormous shit right before coming in here?’” according to two people who were present.

Finished reading: The Box by Marc Levinson 📚
Good read if you’re curious about the global shipping economy and how global commerce got started. Great primer for the book How the World Ran Out of Everything too. Events from The Box have a direct impact on shipping during the pandemic.

I’m always torn between PC gaming and couch gaming in the living room. (Sometimes with a PC hooked up to the TV) The biggest difference is Dolby Atmos. Headphones just can’t compete with a true Atmos setup IMO. The sound difference is insane.

Man, these Cubs are swinging the bats something fierce. They never seem out of a game.

I’ve heard of weird things with identical twins…but this is just…odd.

This story about a kid in Florida who fell in love with a Character.ai chatbot is horrifying. I have more thoughts on this for later. Ella wanted to use this a couple years ago and was annoyed when we said no.
