The more time I spend on Mastodon and get to see all of your wild, amazing sites, the more obsessed with the idea that we all need websites. We ALL NEED WEBSITES. MAKE ONE. I WANT TO SEE IT, YOU WEIRDO LET ME LOVE YOUR WEBSITE.

I'd really prefer to remain as unpolitical on here as possible, but it's extremely frustrating how popular popcorn is as a snack when its downsides are numerous. Hidden kernels. Little bits that get stuck between your teeth. Other little bits that get stuck in your throat as you're trying to swallow and you're overwhelmed by an urge to hack and hack to no avail and so you're running into the kitchen to grab some water and wash down the ostensibly edible carapace that is hanging on for dear life

Today, I discovered my LG washer and dryer have both become disconnected from my wifi network, and to tell you I have never experienced rage until I realized I was going to have to troubleshoot my washer and dryer's fucking wifi connections would be a horrifying understatement.

Okay, yeah, Balatro is as amazing as everyone says it is.

Question: if you've listened to A Very Good (Audio) Blog, would you mind dropping me a review in Apple Podcasts? The cliché is it will help people discover it, but also sometimes clichés are cliché for a reason.

Thank you. I appreciate you.

@tylersticka I don't know how I didn't visit your site before today, but it's one of those that I go to and immediately think, "How fucking dare you?"

The iconography. The art. The WHIMSICAL DANCING 3D VIDEO GAME BOXES. WHAT.

I say this in the most affectionate way I know how: fuck right off (it's stunning).

This is exactly what I'm talking about.

I spent the entire day researching options to replace my Squarespace site, and I came away thinking maybe I don't need a website actually.

I spent the last two weeks working on what turned out to be one of the most personal essays I've ever written. I'm really happy with how it turned out.

If you subscribe to A Very Good (Audio) Blog, you'll soon have a new surprise in your podcast app.

Spoiler alert: it's the audio companion to The Meat Grinder, my piece I wrote about working for Apple, and how I look back and realize that maybe we shouldn't love corporations.

PLEASE LET THE RECORD SHOW THAT I ACTUALLY HATE WRITING A LOT AND WISH I DID NOT FEEL COMPELLED TO DO IT.

I made a blogroll. I'll add more, but it's been hours and I need a break.

I am so tired of getting spammed on LinkedIn with the same goddamned message every single day.

Working for Apple a decade ago kicked off a long and complicated period of reflection that has culminated in this: https://gkeenan.co/avgb/the-meat-grinder

Remember Colossal, the art blog?

I want to do that, but just highlight dope ass websites.

I want to make a podcast where I get to have long, meandering conversations about art and creativity and emotions and vulnerability with the people that make said dope ass websites.

The Mastodon server migration process is... not perfect.

Mundane morning observation: I accidentally poured my cold brew before pouring creamer, and turns out it's really fucking good without.

Interesting morning observation: I woke up with the song from the first level of the first Lemmings! game stuck in my head and I do wonder what dark portent this signifies.
