I'm not pro private jet or a Swifty, but I don't get the focus on Taylor Swift. She's not even in the top ten for celebrity private jet CO2 emissions.

I'd also argue that as the biggest celebrity in the world, she's one of the few people for whom commercial travel is not really an option. I'm not saying it's impossible, but can you imagine if people knew Taylor was in an airport or on a flight? It would be inconvenient and potentially unsafe for everyone.

This is the first show flyer I’ve made in a long time. So excited to be performing again. #Portland

I'm not really sure why Apple would update the Apple TV? I don't think they're ever going to reposition it as a real gaming device, and otherwise It already does everything it needs to and has USB-C.

They say there’s no perfect watch. Okay then, explain the Seiko metronome watch.

Sometimes I end up on “EDC” Reddit, and it never disappoints. One person said they think their Swiss Army Knife is the best thing to carry day to day, and someone non-ironically said that unless you could use it to fashion a shelter in the woods, gut a fish, and skin a deer, it's not good enough. Dollars to donuts that guys every day involves sitting at a computer.

Anyone remember the Fitbit Zip? I kind of want one of those for Apple Health.

A non-watch based health tracker that’s affordable seems out of the question, so easy automatic step tracking that works when I don’t have my phone in my pocket would be a fine compromise.

It's rare to find a screen in one of Apple's big important apps that appear to have not been touched for many years, which is why I'm always excited to see one. There's nothing wrong with this screen in Pages for setting custom layout sizes (other than these button styles not matching), but it definitely feels like it's from another time.

It’s so strange that if your package doesn’t show up when it is due, the policy does not usually seem to be that you’re put into the highest priority for the next day, but weirdly a lower one?

So if Apple is partnering with OpenAI, and training these models uses a lot of energy/carbon, do they just not acknowledge that, because technically it’s OpenAI training the models?

It feels like if they did another corny mother nature skit, but didn’t bring that up at all that would be kind of sketchy.

I wonder what a flavor of Markdown for writing song lyrics might look like?

My son got a taste of what it is to go not only to the DMV, but going there as a non US citizen.

Sent back home because he needed a mail at his name, even if he is a minor. Who daf$ck has utility bills at 15??

They also said he needed a birth certificate. I, based on my grand experience of delightful appointments to the DMV, decided not to take one. Son was mAAAd af.

I wrote a simple app a long time ago for creating set lists. I wonder if something like that but with a lot more features could be a good idea now. It would be a pretty easy app to make with SwiftUI and SwiftData, theoretically.

Creating a setlist in Numbers like this is actually kind of a neat idea. I've never recorded the length of my songs, but it couldn't hurt.

People of #Portland. I am playing a show on June 14th 8pm at The Snug (6806 NE Broadway).

You can hear my music on my Instagram (@fishermansporch). I’m also playing with a couple of other folks who are great.

Come and I will buy you a beer of your choice.
