Reddit is having some issues Who cares? They pulled the API. Screw um!

Time to stay hydrated and wake up. Hit an afternoon wall hard! 🥱

Nooooo!!!! My vinyl copy of #Eggy’s Waiting Game was delayed! At least coming on my birthday now. 🙂

A few days ago I posted about cases for my iPhone 16 Pro. Found my winner for now - Rhinoshield Crash Guard. I believe I have had one on the last three generations of phones. I like it is not an oil magnet like my Apple Silicone. Gives room for my pop socket to attach without looking like a tumor on …

Okay, I’ll play. What’s the first lyrics you heard at your first Phish sh⭕️w? “I had a dog, his name was Jim” 8/12/10 - Deer Creek, Noblesville, Indiana

65 song Ten hours fifty minutes and eleven seconds Just finished making the playlist for Episode 10 of Vice or Virtue about our favorite #Eggy covers is top tier. chef’s kiss

Free moment on my hands, so here is my wallpaper.

It is crazy how fast (in my experience) Threads became a ghost town.

It was an honor to sit down again with my buddy Justin to talk #Eggy covers. We discuss personal favorites, notable cover heavy shows and, ones we would like to see added in the future. Should be out soon! Subscribe to Vice or Virtue on Apple Podcasts

Stay hydrated and represent #Eggy.

Leaf update: The yard vacuum was a total failure. At first leaves we’re to big so would plug up and jam. So I mulched them down then we’re to small and wouldn’t pick up. Spent all day pretty much got nothing accomplished. The bag zipped broke beyond repair so reached out to the person I bought it …

Today’s yardwork sound track: Justin’s Fall 2024 #Eggy jam starts. Listen here

While I said the basement was done, I didn’t say time for rest. Now to deal with the neglected yard with my new toy.

Well, today felt odd. This is the first weekend day I have not woke up to start work on the basement with Dad. I am glad to finally start enjoying it. We started eight weeks ago double teaming the weekend with him solo while I was at work. I appreciate all I have learned from him through the project

You could see a shift on people signing off the fight with a big quality shift. 🥊

These commentators are really crapping in Tyson.

It is crazy that #Eggy in Louisville was two weeks ago! Time flies by to fast sometimes. BUT the good news is the Here and Now tour has already been announced! Excited to see the west coast love. Here’s to hoping the midwest gets some dates added too.

Looking for something big new to listen to today? #Umphrey’s McGee has released their Hall of Fame for 2023. Listen here

Listen, I’ll be brave and say it. I hate Apple got rid of their leather case options.

I have to say I do enjoy a Nutty Buddy.

How to set your domain as your handle If have your own domain can use it as your #BlueSky handle. Time to verify yourself without paying $7 again. 😅

If you would like to follow my nonsense on #BlueSky as well I’m there. (Same as here.)

The Onion Buys Infowars in Bankruptcy Auction In good news this morning. Also #NotTheOnion

If you have not done so already check out Saint Justin’s #Eggy playlist from the Fall Tour. I has been my soundtrack of the day. Amazing to relisten to them like this. Every selection is tribute to what makes this band great! Big things to come! See it here

Final Fantasy games are coming to Apple Arcade Exciting news! I hope more are to come.

😐

Last week was insane to say the least. I was exhausted after a late night with #Eggy in Louisville with the drive back to then two days of basement work I forgot to post photos. Last week was barn door and ceiling tiles. This weekend we finished the floor! Shocking the change it’s made down here.

I like that the “album art” for the #Eggy Headliner’s show 11/1 features Dani playing keyboard from the opposite side. Also that I have a picture of it from my side too. Listen here

I’ve been rather down this week trying to wrap my head around everything that occurred. Though I came across a post about what Sam tells Frodo in Return on the King that hit me hard.

#Eggy - One More Dance - 10/30/24 - The Radio Room, Greenville, SC Classic song that shifts into a drum solo. Guess everyone decided they wanted to be a drummer as well. So they take drumsticks to play their own instruments. What comes next is a dance party grove. This transition into a Jake …

This lotus wallpaper gives me an updated, original iOS feeling.

#Eggy - 10/25/24 Hulaween, Live Oak, FL - Whoa There Whoa There is the new ear worm. It matches or exceeds Atomic Age. This version was the last thing I listened to last night. First this morning. Mike crushes the low end the entire time. Such a smooth, soft grove over the top. Will leave you …

Nintendo Switch 2 will be backward-compatible with Switch games At least something from the Good News Department. #Nintendo #Switch

Don’t mind me. Just getting ready for work this morning.

Oh look! Time to take out the trash twice today.

Here’s FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr sucking up to Donald Trump by threatening to take NBC off the air Two things on this: First, Trump was a host after announcing his candidacy. (Season 41 - 11/7/15) Hillary Clinton did a cold open that year not even as herself, but as a bartender. Second, good …

Good lord #TheVerge….854 partners need my info?! This is insane.

After my 14 Pro Max battery went down the tubes quickly, I am paranoid about the new phone. Though still cannot get used to 85% being my new 100% with this setting.

Getting ready #Eggy

October 2024

Halloween evening 🧙‍♀️

Who’s ready for wet trick or treating?! 🎃 💀 (Honestly, not me either. Yet, here we are.)

Ever start and email with “Good morning” then get caught up on other tasks you have to come back and change it to “Good afternoon”? 😵‍💫

Just wrapped up #voting at my local center. It feels like such a weight was lifted off of me. Go make your voice heard! 🎙️

Happy Halloween 🎃

Unsure how I can get the AirPod Hearing Protection to work. Keeps saying too much noise while in a totally silent room. Frustrating.

Next big basement step was crossed off the list yesterday. The grid is up for the ceiling with light boxes placed for where they intend to go.

Fine fall day

Free stream of #Eggy’s show in Nashville tomorrow!

It has been awhile since I shared a #homescreen. So here’s what I have at the moment. Thanks to BasicAppleGuy for the iPhone 16 Pro internals wallpaper.

“Dad since I got New Balance shoes can you wear yours today too?” Twins!

Yearly reviews all turned in for my team. It is done.

#Eggy - Antone’s Nightclub, Austin, TX This whole section from the screenshot is just 🤌. I mentioned that Must Come Down will become a heater of a jam vehicle. It’s starting to come true. Buying Time > Birdland > Buying Time is a treat. Not pictured very strong Kiss from a Rose encore Listen …

Is there a way to reset the Apple Intelligence pop-ups? Feel like mine closed out before I read them.

How’s the basement going? Glad you asked! First and second coats of primer on today. Finally got the sliding door in after it was damaged in transit and reordered. Then to be lost at the store for pick up for two days. Decided a color for the walls today. Cleaned out the laundry side for ceiling and …

Oh Culver’s! You’re so punny.

I am no Excel expert in any respect. Though how I pulled off this Halloween Bingo game for next week made me feel pretty smart. 45 unique card with 75 words

First Threads adds online status to profiles. Now the feed is 80% reels. They’re just making it Instagram.

Nuclear reactors in tech. So hot right now.

Conversation Awareness on my AirPods is great. That is until I get into a grove singing and then music drops out leaving me there doing a solo performance.

Apple announces new iPad mini with A17 Pro chip, Apple Intelligence support I love my iPad mini and use it daily. I am glad it received an update finally. Though more than anything it needs FaceID. TouchID is such a pain. I end up locking the iPad more than I do unlocking what I am trying to get in.

🚨 Two new #Eggy shows have been posted! 🚨 10/3/24 9/29/24 Excited to hear the return of Sugar Sleuth on 10/3! 19 min Sweaters for Strawmen as well.

I am so tired. I cannot wake up today. Monday is in full effect.

Wrapping up baking my wife’s birthday cake, I asked my little to put the eggs back in the fridge. 🫣

Three from the Northern Lights

Has anyone seen a road map for when #Openvibe will update for Threads?

Dinner

If you missed SNL last night watch it tonight. It was a great I episode beginning to end. Nate Bargatze did an amazing job hosting again!

One this is true - You were either in a farts are funny or not funny family.

Anyone have thoughts on why so many FB/Instagram Reels have the same Cybertruck specs as the post? Some metric gaming?

We’re back folks! #Eggy Fall Tour started last night. Welcome back Sugar Sleuth.

#Eggy - 3/26/22 - Kenny’s Westside Pub, Peoria, IL Don’t be fooled by the goofy cover art. This one is a fun show. Great Time Escaping with Slipknot/Help on the Way teases. Rarities Sugar Sleuth and Sweet Harriet on the set list. Tribute to Taylor Hawkins with Learning to Fly. Fly Fredrick Fly keeps …

September 2024

Finally, received an update on the vinyl pressing of Waiting Game! Should be ready to ship soon. #Eggy

It has been two weeks since the basement project started. I realized today I have not given any updates lately! Framing is all done. Wiring has been ran. Yesterday was insulation day. Next is finishing wiring install then drywall!

Solid Ground is in my Top 10 favorite #Eggy songs. I am sure I have posted this before in some variant. Remember we’d imagine We’d do things just because of passion Our dreams so close we could grab them So why would we settle for habits? A mind tends to wander places you don’t want to go When you …

Hey you! Yea, you reading this. Have a great day!

X will let people you’ve blocked see your posts This will go over well. 🙄 Just leave this hell site already! Why are you there still? Allowing this to occur is a huge privacy risk for those facing stalkers or abusive ex-partners.

Is it necessary to have a camera icon on my home screen anymore? #iPhone16

It’s here! #iPhone16Pro

Weren’t to keen on the new #Eggy album because of the different sound? Post-release shows are now starting to come out. 9/12/24 - Hartford Live, Hartford, CT First out the gate from they played the entire album minus So Long. Waiting Game was electric. Must Come Down is extended at 13min. (I am …

Well, this is utter crap. I loved the Explorer face since the Series 3 was released. watchOS 11 update removes two more faces from Apple Watch

Things starting to get real now. Case just showed up for the 16 Pro!

Seeing the reviews for iPhone 16 start to roll in has me excited.

Dad: “Hey. While you’re at the officer today I am planning on heading to your house. There are some things I want to think through to start.” Builds a wall. Bless this man.

It has begun. Time to finish in the basement.

#Eggy - Tom Corn Walker - 8/10/24 JM’s On The Water, Surf City, NC 33 min monster from a three song second set. 🌽 Subdued grove for Dani to shine over. Classic democratic. Does not break over a peak. Knows where it is and stays there.

Ordered through AT&T’s site. Was quick and easy to preorder. 😄 #iPhone16 Pro 512GB Black Titanium

That is a pretty cool detail. iOS 18 audio time line shows how far you have listened

I am going to be honest. The #iPhone16 has re-sparked my excitement for a new phone.

Good morning! Hope it’s a great day. ☀️

Apple released a 22 page pdf of iOS 18 changes.

YouTube TV showing a moment of Zen before returning to the debate is welcome.

“Spheres of Terror” #fakemetalband

Something interesting I just read. The Apple Silicone cases for the iPhone 16 will have a sapphire crystal on the Camera Control.

New #Eggy Alert 8/31/24 - Salvage Station Asheville, NC Very solid opening setlist here. Wraps up with Jake sitting on Little Feat’s All That You Dream to Boom or Bust closing with Portable Air Scrubber. Listen here

I keep my Apple Watches for a while. The Titanium Milanese Loop is a welcome addition in my book.

The Apple #Watch Series 10, what is to me, the peak iPhone design. #iPhone 7 Plus in Jet Black

According to this from #Apple the only difference between Pro and Pro Max is screen and battery size. Cameras are the same. If that is the case I am returning to team small #iPhone with the 16 Pro.

My iPhone 14 Pro Max is working great. It is 512gb so no storage worries (though I like to have it now I do) The iPhone 15 didn’t call out to me much. I don’t think I have missed out on anything. Though the 16 release has me curious. May be a debate to have with myself.

New #Eggy music morning Time to listen to 8/30/24 - Asheville, NC We get the first officially released “Smile” since Waiting Game has come out. Plus a FTP cover by Coldplay - Speed of Sound!

Restarted my feed for cross posting from micro.blog to socials, now it is lightning fast! ⚡️

Good morning. Time to wake up with #Eggy and Lauren from LA ☀️ Hope it’s a great week!

#Eggy - 8/24/24 - Everwise Amphitheater Indianapolis, IN - Atomic Age Enjoy but don’t get lost in Jake’s Bliss madness through this one. Plenty going on behind the scenes. Dani has a sense of urgency. Mike gives a solid foundation. You pick up that Alex has been watching Myers speed the previous …

The #NFL being back reminds me of how much commercials suck..

Please onsider picking up #Eggy’s new album Waiting Game today for #BandcampFriday. Get those high quality FLAC files to hear all of the layers in Smile. The band recieves 100% of the revenue from the sales.

Took a moment last night to put together a Nugs playlist for the #Eggphrey’s collabs over the past few weeks.

Sometimes I love Meta AI attempts to help, but coming off as a smart ass.

Happy Waiting Game week! Three days till #Eggy’s sophomore album is released! Pick up a copy of the vinyl here!

August 2024

Jake to the rescue!

I created a BlueSky account again..spent 15 min there then say “Why am I doing this?” and deleted it 😅

Very excited to listen to last night’s Umphrey’s set. Plenty of 2008 Mantis goodness here. Plus Eggy sit in for “Bennie and the Jets” at encore

I’ve never listened to Wilco before much. (I did see Glenn Kotche at my very first UM show in 2006.) Though “I Am Trying to Break Your Heart” fits the band’s sound really well. A great new addition to the catalog. Ready for the other sets to be released!

Good Morning The new #Eggy setlists opening for Umphrey’s are starting to peek out their heads. First up is Salt Shed from Chicago Don’t forget all of the UM shows are up on Nugs right now too: St Louis, Chicago, Indy, The Caverns!

Arrived.

I’m here. Ready to party down!

I feel attacked. Now Facebook is showing me Aleve ads for being sore and old after a concert.

R&R with Stop Making Sense in honor of the Eggy/Umphrey’s collab last night. Hoping for more tonight. (Though hoping it’s saved for tomorrow if it happens)

Oh no. I wouldn’t survive the night.

Time to relive 3/4 of Eggy and Umphrey’s from last night on Girlfriend is Better.

Dang that was quick! Told ya Attachments was huge.

Home safe after the three hour drive from St Louis. In an hour and forty-five minutes the kids will get up for school. 🥴 (I’ll get my sleep once they’re taking care of.) As they say - Rage. Rest. Repeat.

Tickets and the plan is lined up. Who’s ready for #Eggy / #Umphreys? I’ll be at St. Louis tomorrow then Indy Saturday. Anyone else joining?

Facebook Marketplace is madness. Lightly used? My brother there’s a burned hole in the top of it… How do you say this with a straight face?

#Umphrey’s McGee -Work Sauce - 6/14/24 Vail, CO Work Sauce is the last track on the new album “Asking for a Friend”. Just the third time played this night.

I love my iPad mini 6th gen…though holy heck TouchID in the button is awful. I end up turning off the screen more than unlocking. Just add FaceID and be done with it all together.

New #Eggy music! 8/10/24 - Hot August Music Festival, Cockeysville, MD On paper looks like a typical festie set. Excited to hear Buying Time, Time Loves a Hero, and BEC2. Listen here

Good morning! 😃 Now that Mondegreen is over it is time for #Umphreys and #Eggy week! Kicking off first in St Louis on the 22nd at The Pageant. Now time to rewatch Eggy at Ardmore Music Hall from back on 3/22/24

Bubba looks so good after a trim.

Good morning ☀️ Let’s enjoy the #Phish Ambient Secret Set from Mondegreen 8/16/24. Perfect for a #silentsunday.

Cool. Cool. Cool. I guess betas gonna beta

Catching up on #Phish shows before the weekend. I love Set 1 of 8/4 at Deer Creek. Just a set of uncommon, one off songs that still flows together. I love Party Time and Destiny Unbound. Then set 2 just come off the top rope slamming in with a four song set!

We are going back to the Vernon Barn this morning! New #Eggy video for Come Up Slow Also one week until Eggphrey’s starts in Saint Louis!

Corporate greed strikes again. Sure they’re hiding behind the contract, though we know it’s truly because now they can charge the government a higher rate.

My new front door is perfection. This little feature is one of my favorite things.

Good morning! ☀️ Start your day off right with some Mr Blue Sky to set the mood right! #Eggy -7/25/24 - Floyd Fest, Check, VA Listen here

Very happy to report thatg this years’s beta for iOS 18 has yet to tank my battery health like past years.

I received a whiteboard for me new office last week. Had to take the opportunity to put this up.

Decided to many bugs got in. Gotta close it up. 😄

Decided today we wanted a more open air concept for the house. 🏡

It is a real bummer that Boarderlands is only pulling 9% on Rotten Tomatoes.

More new #Eggy? Don’t mind if I do! Another short fest set - 7/25/24 Floydfest, Check, VA Listen here

Just another Can’t Focus Friday! 😖

New #Eggy music morning! “Come Up Slow” from “Waiting Game” is out now. All of the new singles are released as an EP together. It is almost half of the new album. I’m happy to be able to listen now without jumping between singles.😁 Listen here

Welp, it is that time of the year again. 📚

I feel like it’s an #Eggy at Garcia’s playing Garcia kinda day. Eggy - 6/2/22 Garcia’s at Port Chester, NY Listen here

Seems this week in a nutshell is - it storms I pick up the sticks.

Also an older game but a fun Indie game. Hyper Light Drifter: Special Edition is $11.99 / 40% off #Nintendo #Switch #Gaming

Told you patience would pay off. Prince of Persia The Lost Crown is 40% off

It will sound off the first time hearing it compared to what you’re used to expecting for Kodachrome. Though about the third listen it clicks as another cover done in Eggy’s own style. #Eggy - Kodachrome - 7/18/24 4848 Festival, Showshoe, WV Listen here

Office Journeyman: Hey! I just started painting your new office and getting ready to install new LED lights. It’s going to look great after Me: That is amazing! I appreciate it so much. Reality - They came in to putty holes then sanded but made zero effort to cover anything in my office. Looks like …

What kind of of mad scientists are breaking into homes?

New #homescreen inspired by Gabz. Love the simple layout with open space. Very clean setup.

“Found this in the bin today. Will have to hold me over till my “Waiting Game” vinyl comes in. Order your copy here.” #eggy

During every Olympic opening ceremony I give a little fist pump to Tuvalu for being my domain host. 🇹🇻 Which royalties from make up 8.4% of its government revenue.

Younger me in 1995: Oh wow! I bet in 2024 there will be flying cars. World peace. So much cool technology. 2024:

It could honestly transition well to a SpongeBob line too. They look about like Patrick.

Woah! I have been on iOS 18 for a few weeks now. Just using my iPad that is still 17.5.1 and Photos is a total reversal on what I am used to seeing.

The amount of walkthroughs for Mega Man 8 is terribly low.

“He [Trey] just looked me right in the eye and was like, ‘Thank you so much for telling me that. It’s really only our hope that we can continue to pass this down the stream.’ He was, like, congratulating us on our success,” Dani says It’s official team! #Eggy has been passed down the stream. Phish …

Phish - The Well Vinyl Rip

Oh, heck. Why not?

Sometimes we are truly on the dumbest timeline. I really want off. 😵‍💫

I don’t have one now. Is it worth it to have a #Bluesky account?

Thoughts on my cheesesteak feast: The family said it was all great. (Was unable to get a photo since they all were ate. One was left but onions/peppers/cheese was use in the others so not accurate) My own ranking: 6.5/10 - definitely harder on myself and room for improvement My marinade was great …

It’s about to begin. (I really need a work table.)

I am a sad dad now that a sudden thunderstorm has come through preventing all of my yard tasks.

Just help yourself sir…!

I love my iPad mini 6th gen but man this thing needs FaceID terribly. TouchID is just awkward on a lock button. I never had an issue with it as a home button. My natural reaction is to just type in my passcode.

I think I have all of my organizing done for the birthday feast. Everyone’s custom order confirmed - chicken teriyaki or Philly cheesesteak Prep list for supplies Prep list for ingredients Temps for griddle and frying oil Marinade recipe for night before Small note from the little to say she loves …

It is going to be a humid weekend. 🥵

Excited for making the grocery of things I need for my oldest’s birthday party. Making sure I have it all for prep work in advance. Saying I have an 18 year old just doesn’t seem real. Very eye opening reminder how time flies. Hope do I cope with this? Making food. 🙂

🚨 New #Eggy release 🚨 Eggy’s first Red Rocks performance has been posted. Short and simple opening set for Blues Traveler on July 4th Listen here

I really wish I would use the new iOS Journals app. Just struggle to put “pen to paper” that way…

Well the iPad mini is great for work. 😄

I think with #Ivory hitting 2.0 it is time for another chance.

Lessons from the first “Egg McMuffin” attempt: Need to non-stick spray the egg rings Need to double egg each

Sounds about right the local power company would change everyone’s account number then force us to re-register an account. But to then top it off do this over July 4th weekend where the site now gives a Bad Request. Seems like the made the change then turned it all off.

Eggy 7/4/24 - Red Rocks Morrison, CO Opening for Blues Traveling with JJ Grey, Mofro Wayless, One Stop Shop, Burritos El Chavos 2, Shadow, Zugzwang, Leatherback

Ah the fireworks have already started….at 9am…. 😒

Here comes the granny.

Feels damn good to make a to-do list for the day and get them all crossed off! ✅✅✅

Walking outside feels amazing today! So nice not to be face melting hot and humid. Feel like Nick Cage getting off ConAir.

Round 2 🐄 🐖 🥔

🥞

It feels a little silly to say, but this Disney coloring app has been relaxing to use this week. Got it from Apple Arcade for the little only to be pulled in myself.

I’ve seen it posted around Shakedown before about Dave the Diver. It just went on sale for the lowest price ever of $13.99 for #Nintendo #Switch. Don’t forget to pick up the two free DLC too!

Went with my long time friend to see Little Feat last night. It was, respectfully, much lower energy than I expected. Just a handful of people were dancing in the crowd. I am glad it was just in town with no travel involved. Also bummed they didn’t play “Time Loves a Hero” or “All That You Dream”. …

Focus..definitely not a strong suit of mine today…

Having to catch up on email is the worst part of coming back to the office.

So far I love my iPad mini! It’s the perfec size for a bigger than phone screen but not overwhelming.

A little Branson, MO getaway weekend.

I heard Yellowstone is just Succession on a farm. All the kids want Daddy’s love and the control of the business. I can’t help but look at it any other way now.

See! Mets ride ‘Grimace’ hot streak with 14-run, 22-hit rout - ESPN Video

Heck yah! Just hit me #HouseoftheDragon is back tonight.

Did Grimmace turn the Mets season around?

Happy Father’s Day May your jokes be corny, mowers run smooth, grills be hot and New Balance 608s be comfy. Get a garage beer and turn up the Steely Dan.

Cool color picker when adding a tint to #homescreen icons in iOS 18. #ios18 #beta

Another interesting iOS 18 find. The flashlight not only has intensity level like normal, but now has spread. You can do a focused or wide beam. #iOS18

I kinda like the chunky, Duplo iOS 18 icons. Not sure if it is something for everyday, but maybe a nice option for a #minimal #homescreen. #iOS18

Nice to see more customization in iOS. Not seeing a flashlight is a big change. Will be great for Shortcuts too.

Frustrating that my iPhone 14 Pro Max that is just over a year old won’t get these new features. First time I am aware of a newer device getting stiffed on something like this. Source

I am just a glutton for punishment…

🚨 New #Eggy alert!🚨 Night two of Vegas late nights for Dead and Co Listen here

I mean come on. The team let us go to the field to meet the team. Then watch our college team play in the NCAA Baseball Championship on the big screen after the game.

Baseball night in the hometown third oldest park in America.

🚨 New #Eggy music! 🚨 Night one of two for the Dead and Co late night sets. Big 33 min Suite: Judy Blue Eyes to close out this one set. Listen here.

Just want to say these new #Eggy album covers kill for #homescreen #wallpapers!

Very excited for these new additions! #Nintendo keeps giving with the #Switch Online service. I would have never thought these would be released this way. Mega Man V is a rarity on cartridge. Also special because has bosses only in this game named after planets. All others were remixed NES versions.

#Eggy’s new album ‘waiting game’ will be released September 6th. Pre-order the vinyl here!

Is anyone into #minimal #homescreen layouts? Looking for wallpapers/inspiration.

Time to watch #Eggy on their 5/25/24 late night set at Solshine Reverie from ShinePigeon

Patio nights.

Rest in Peace Deadhead and NBA star Bill Walton

Nice to see Alex sit in with UM 4/25. Though I am concerned about Kris being out so much third set. I wonder if he is having shoulder issues. #Eggy #Umphrey’s

Tell ya what. Really getting sick of this rain….

A distinguished gentleman.

It finally happened. The perfect box of taco shells! Not a single one was smashed to dust.

Again… never change Facebook. Never change. Also a fun game to play is, search for mirrors and see all the ways people try to take pictures without themselves in it.

Focus is at an all time low today. 👀

Big #MonaApp update today to 6.3!

#Eggy - 5/10/24 - Mr. Blue Sky - Beachland Ballroom, Cleveland, OH 🎶 “Please tell us why You had to hide away for so long?” Another rainy day here at home. Ready for some Mr Blue Sky again. Second time played with a great upbeat jam at the end. Listen here

This is very satisfying.

Nothing like a bat flying in the house to spice up the evening. I am 99% sure he went outside. Update: He didn’t. Saw him for a few laps around the house then lost contact. Upstairs and downstairs cleared. Trying all of the lights off with one light at the exit.

Did everyone decide to level up at once? #FalloutShelter

I really enjoy the uniball one 0.38. Though the Pilot G-2 0.38 is still the goat. 🐐

#Umphreys is on their Stew Art set of UMBowl now if you are looking for something to do. Jamming on text messsge suggestions from the audience.

It’s official #Eggy stream for Friday night (4/12) on Nugs from the Fox Theatre in Boulder, CO with Neighbor.

With Fallout releasing earlier tonight I just want to say: With all of the other collection games (GTA, Boarderlands, Bioshock, MGS) it’s criminal that the #Nintendo #Switch has yet to get the Fallout games.

Devs please do not fall of this again. It’s a matter of time before they pull the rug out again from under you. Meta shares more details on Threads API ahead of June release

My parents just updated their basement. This means cleaning the “storage room”. It’s allowed me to reconnect with the literature of my youth.

The amount of of Easter candy in this house is to damn high! The little one just informed me now she has “upstairs Pez” and “downstairs Pez”. 🙄

Time to enjoy everyone’s favorite track from the 1995 classic Batman Forever. Tight lock with Mike and Alex on the grove to joined by Dani shortly after to a strong Jake finish. With a killer six show run this great jam, I think, is lost in the mix. Some Rubin and Cherise thrown in the mix for fun …

Started the day off with a dead battery in the car. We have owned it since 2020 without replacing it. Definitely reasonable since having it that long. Come to find out it’s the original oem from 2013 in there! Holy heck! Never seen one last that long before. Thankful for pops bailing me out to …

I’m not going to turn on #Fediverse sharing on my #Threads account. Though what I will do is make a Threads post sharing my information to this profile to follow here. No point in having two accounts when what I support is here.

3/15/24 Nectar’s, Burlington, VT A very aggressive but pretty jam in this Lost and Found Listen here

#Eggy - 3/15/24 - Tiny Miracles, Nectars, Burlington, VT Don’t sleep on this hidden gem. 💎 The entire band is firing on all cylinders for the jam. Dani’s keyboard change at 8:45 is so sneaky! The drop back into TM is perfection. Listen here.

If Biden Wants To Win, He Needs To Talk About COVID The pressure to simply move on from the horrors of 2020 is strong. Who wouldn’t love to awaken from that nightmare and pretend it never happened? Besides, humans have a knack for sanitizing our most painful memories.

Is it exciting for Threads joining the Fediverse? For me kinda. Though I don’t think we need to stand for any crap/drama/hate it may bring the same way we handle Instances now.

This time change has thrown off our entire week. Little has been out of character (Thankfully, seems back to her sweet self tonight.) I haven’t listened in as much music this week. Works been blah until today. Ready for a reset.

February 2024

Twitter is becoming a ‘ghost town’ of bots as AI-generated spam content floods the internet _ “It’s hard to remove Twitter bots from Twitter because Twitter is mostly bot."_ So what keeps people there still? It is mind boggling how someone would rationalize staying.

Here’s a Switch 2 idea. Take it for free. When new icons become available let me just download them all in one swoop. It’s tedious to click through them all. Please. Thanks. 👍🏻 #Nintendo Releases Nee Earthbound Beginnings #Switch Online Icons

This grinds my gears about the #Nintendo #eShop. The Messenger is on sale for $4.99. The DLC is free. You would think the combo for game and DLC would match the $4.99 price. Nope! It’s $14.99.

What I need is a Nugs.net end of the year. That would be more interesting since it is where 95% of my listening is done. You can tell my little controls the Apple Music side.

🍿 The Stranger (2022) - ★★★☆☆ Pretty good murder mystery. Interesting story telling with weaving timelines.

And that’s a wrap on SMB #Wonder! Took me quite a bit longer than I thought it would. 😅 My advice would be follow the coin paths. Get good. The final section use spin to see where you are on screen bouncing along.

Just want to say The Final-Final Test Badge Marathon is really giving me a fit in Super Mario Brothers Wonder. It’s all I need for 100%. I’ve yet to even complete it. I don’t think I would struggle on this like I have.

Love my boys in #Eggy, but lately their cover to original ratio leans way to hard to covers. Dont get me wrong. They are great covers. Though spread the love through the catalog

Are they at least able to cancel their reservation. Yesh! #Cybertruck is entirely vaporware.

📺 The Wire (2002) - ★★★★☆ HBO at its best. Four stars because it hit its stride at the end. Though always great. One large story line ends in the most disappointing way possible. Though it was made in 2002 before those big shocks occur.

📺 Justified: City Primeval (2023) - ★★☆☆☆ I don’t want to spoil it. Though it’s the hands down, most anti-climatic ending ever. After the last 15 min of episode seven does a nose dive. So many loose ends to go over with one beginning in the last episode! I expected so much more.

I took the time to fully dig in and adjust everything I can to my liking in #Mona. Even signed up for the free DeepL translate. Because why not. It probably is the best #Mastodon app for iOS with taking the time to perfect it to your linking. Admittedly I think before I was overwhelmed by it all. …

Teams and Outlook off for the weekend. I refuse to randomly peek.

If you want to listen to #Phish at Dicks this weekend. Sirius is having a promo with 3 months for $1. I am sure signup involved a credit card and chatting in to cancel after. Though don’t want ya to miss out if you don’t have to. Link

Destiny Unbound tonight? #Phish #Dicks

If anyone complains about #Phish Dick’s night 1, disown them. You don’t need that energy in your life. New songs. Old songs. Heavy hitters. Moments of calm. Beginning to end an amazing show.

My iPhone 14 Pro Max battery health is frustrating to say the least. Down to 92% now and fell 2% in the past week. Hour of usage is a 100% to 85% drop. My father in law’s 6S is at 95% he has had since 2017. I’m honestly willing to chalk it up to iOS 17 beta, then again it’s an unacceptable reason. 🙄

First order of business this morning is listening to this monster. #Umphreys is not letting Chris’ absence impact them at all.

Dear news sites of the world When I press back, I want to back to the last page I was on. Not spam about Backstreet Boys and pill scams. I understand revenue is important, but come on. This is getting frustrating. “MoRe StoRiEs BeForE YoU Go!” Get outta here with this nonsense.

Picked up this #Eggy pin second hand. Very excited about it to come in. (These are from the seller.)

Listen, #Elon is only talking about removing blocks from #X because things have been quiet. He needs the outrage machine to drum up some attention again. A matter of time before it’s backtracked on.

New pins. Not a collector but I couldn’t pass them up. Especially the Hollow Knight. 🎮

📺 Under the Banner of Heaven (2022) - ★★★★☆ Starts off rather slow but does pick up by episode three. Insane the control people will allow religion to control them in their quest for power. Tragic true story. Andrew Garfield does a great job as Detective Jeb Prye.

After being stuck in an airport or plane for the past three days this has been stuck in my head. I’ve been shook around enough for awhile. #Goose - Turbulence & The Night Rays - 7/04/23 - Stone Pony Summer Stage, Ashbury Park, NJ Listen here

iOS 17 drops support for iPhone 8 and iPhone X Wanna know how time flies? iOS 17 drops support for iPhone X. I feel this just came out a few years ago. How did it go so fast?

Twitter changes its official handle to X, Twitter Blue now called XBlue It is really called “X Blue” now? Truly, the lowest effort rebrand ever.

I understand that articles are probably sent from the publisher to Apple News in a feed. Then, they are sent to my app/notification automatically. No big deal. Though Apple really needs to curb this type of notification. Just like the Amazon Prime Day deals these are spam. You can always tell it’s a …

If you have not given #Woolly for Mastodon chance yet, give it a try! It very feels polished and clean. I hope that grouped notifications are included soon. Would be my only critique. I know this can be a deal breaker for some. It’s not huge for me. Plus the icon is pretty cute. AppStore

Well darn. I got a lil too excited there. The expansions are IAP. I already have them all on Switch so couldn’t reason with another $40 for the mobile version.

Holy heck! The Binding of Isaac was updated to Repentance today for iOS. This game has not been updated in SIX YEARS!

Day three of casually working this puzzle with my wife. Tons of progress yesterday. Lost a piece yesterday but found it this morning. Inspired to continue on.

Republicans Are Throwing Temper Tantrums Over ‘Barbie’ At some point aren’t they just tired of being upset all the time? Just pivoting from being butthurt about one thing to another has to be exhausting. How do they keep track anymore? Is there a site for it?

Elon is transitioning #Twitter to #X. Goes to x.com to see what’s up. Loads broken Twitter URL. Doesn’t resolve. Sounds ‘bout right. 🥴

A four song set is a legendary one. Phish tonight is on a kitchen sink set. 12 so far.

It’s amazing the swing in ads I see coming to Florida. From downright hateful and racist to this bonkers stuff

🍿 Elemental (2023) - ★★★★☆ A cute movie about acceptance of others and yourself. Great animations per usual Pixar/Disney movie. Great to hear new voice actors that don’t just play themselves as a cartoon.

Kinda find it entertaining when this other #Eggy drifts into my Apple Music for the real Eggy.

I did this earlier, but was wrong. Here I go again… What song will #Phish close the Alpharetta run with? And why will it be more?

Dear fellow travelers: Back up. No need to tailgate someone. If you’re upset about phantom traffic jams for no reason. This is why!

Check my understanding please: #Threads will include #ActivityPub shortly. This means those post will not be included in the #federated timeline, but just gives me the ability to follow those accounts? Thank you 💜

Kinda interesting I am in one of the first million to join #Threads. Still not in my plant to use it. Though I am there.

My take: Avoid Threads. Not for any nefarious truly, you are already on Facebook/Instagram. Simply, just because the data you create is better on a Mastodon instance you can migrate and save if you need to. It is time to maintain your own presence online with a personal domain. Make it your own. …

If you use #Eve HomeKit door sensors, I would advise to avoid updating to 2.1.3. After update none of them are responsive. It’s frustrating. Apparently, I am not the only one. I hate to link to it but a Reddit thread about it here confirms I am not alone.

Trying to test out the new Mastodon app on iOS Radiant. First thing that jumps out is trying to open images/links from the main timeline. I cant do it unless I open the toot itself. Kinda frustrating start. Hopefully, just a bug that needs fixed.

Mammoth for iOS just updated with a changed profile view. I much prefer it to the past version.

Welp, back to the real world today. Time to organize all the emails from while I was gone. Should be a fun activity. Was hard to send the little one back to the sitter today too. Hug was a little longer than normal.

I have to go back to work tomorrow after a weeks long vacation. I am really putting off going to sleep as long as I can tonight. I need as much time left as I can get.

Little one: Dad there is a frog in the kitchen? Me: A what? Really? Her: 👇 (It is now resting in mom’s garden.)

Problem I have with Mastodon apps is honestly, I want to use them all. See is what having an open API gives you. More options then you know what to do with.

Friday fun! Someone sent an email to the entire department. So my inbox is guaranteed to be a log jam today with reply-all responses. 🙄

Twitter replaces its free API with a paid tier in quest to make more money I imagine this will be the next cause for Twitter exodus for those with bot accounts and automatic post sharing.

Voice cast Also look outside Chris Pratt at the voice cast. It’s a great list. Fred Armisen, Jack Black, Charlie Day, Charles Martinet cameo.

Super Mario Bros Movie - Teaser Look, Mario appears a lil different but I’ll hear him out. The mustache change with a realistic body movement to a realistic movie are understandable.

September 2022

Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s attack on John Fetterman tattoos is ignorant Fetterman is an man of actions speak louder than words. (Another bonus example Tucker is trash television.)

I haven’t posted one of these in awhile.

Stuck in this middle ground of “nope” and in awe over this hobo spider on our balcony. Interesting to watch him so up close. Yet, not wanting his family to set up shop so close where mine gets a bite.

Hollow Knight replay - Late 2022: I started replaying Hollow Knight this week. The OLED Switch really makes it pop with the dark environments. Last time I played in my Lite and it did not have that effect. Also forgot how cute he is reading the map and walking. (Won’t let me video capture or I’d post it. Also never noticed …

I caved.

Hi. Yes. I have a question…. What the hell happened to September?! It has yet to hit me August is over. 🤯

Changing this face in watchOS 9 gives me real Pebble vibes. RIP

I decided to open some junk mail today to read what it had to say for a little entertainment. I mean someone replies right? Holy hell! Look at these numbers.

A few things here: I do not believe I have ever seen a falcon just hanging out on the ground. I am also blown away to see them in my own neighborhood.

Album of the Day 🎵 🎸: Kasvot Växt - í rokk Okay, it’s really Phish. BUT IMO one of the best halloween cover costumes done. (Outside 10/31/96 for The Talking Heads - Remain in the Light) Fun listen too. Turtles in the Clouds. Say it to me S.A.N.T.O.S too the list.

Album of the Day 🎵 🎸: Eggy - Watercolor Days When you listen to a band who’s main avenue for listening is live and on stage a studio album can give you a different perspective.

Bitcoin that’s easy to save, spend and hold in a self-sovereign way. So money?

Some circle issues fix themselves. 🤷‍♂️

The Pride unlock animation is pretty satisfying. iOS16

I like the featured Search on the new iOS 16 home screen. Spotlight has been, for a long time, an overlooked feature.

New keyboard haptics in iOS 16 are very nice. Settings > Sounds & Haptics > Keyboard Feedback

But over all I can get used to these new appearances.

First iOS 16 beta 1 reaction: Apple did not focus on circles in some areas.

I am a glutton for punishment. Puts on spelunking helmet I am going in!

Welp, between the Lock Screen and Home App changes I think I’ll be sticking my foot into the iOS beta bear trap again. #WWDC2022 🤯
