Happy 10th Birthday to ‘The Verge’
11/1/21
Happy first decade to The Verge, arguably one of the most important tech media publication of the past decade!
I remember how innovative they were from the very start!
”The Verge predates Alexa and the entire concept of Netflix original programming. We are older than Google Photos, Timehop, and Peloton; we launched with a glossy story on the first Nest thermostat. The very first Oculus VR prototype was shown to us in a Las Vegas parking lot. The Verge is older than Slack; we are about as old as movies in 4K. All of that in just 10 years.”
Respectfully, Facebook — now Meta— and Zuck can all fuck off, now!

Korean Movie night
8/25/21
One of the many perks living in Paris: I’ve got an all-you-can-eat pass to go to the cinema!
This evening I was planning an outing to an art house theater which was planning to show a 35mm screening of Sympathy for Lady Vengeance however their 35mm projector is down. So as a backup they’re showing The Host — which was also in my list…
Fellow Sports Fans, this is your mandatory weekend reading sorted!
Happy John Mayer release day!
#NowPlaying
Anyone who knows me well should know that I’m a sucker for a good late night talk show, so this weekend read about Conan O’Brien’s farewell was just what I needed 🤗📺
I’m old now
Absolutely loved reading @LaurenzCollins' feature piece about @OmarSy (@Netflix’s #Lupin) in @NewYorker. It’s about the actor, the show, but also so much more about French society and modern history today!
The immediate follow-up for me now is to think about Micro.blog vs DayOne vs Tumblr (also an Automattic acquisition)
For the use that I personally have, all of these have inter-connections…

US v Europe, an allegory
The people around us have been very impressed with my wife’s complete change of career. She’s going live in a few days with another fellow creative (@britt_mgreene) for a session about just that.
Trying to think about what would be the simplest/cheapest and overall best way to set up an automated newsletter whenever I post something on Micro.blog 🤔
Maybe something based on the RSS feed of my “Life" category to keep up with friends & family…
During Covid Times, I don’t exactly have drinking buddies… basically I need more @Untappd friends!
I am here for this article about Tech, Accessibility, and Inclusion by my friend @ImCatNoone!
THERAPY & CATHARSIS is singing this at the top of my lungs!

#AAPI Heritage Month
5/5/21
Wonderful takeover on Apple Music to celebrate #AAPI (Asian American & Pacific Islanders) heritage month!
If you can, watch the @MrEddieHuang interview and the short film about being Unapologetically Asian please do that too!
Happy @Offspring release day! 🤘🏼 🎸 🔥
