As well as The West Wing becoming an elusive animal of the wilds, the final season of Brooklyn Nine-Nine is still not available in the UK.

So, basically, all of this streaming stuff is useless because of idiotic business people.

I’m ready to abandon streaming.

The irony of not being able to buy the box set of The West Wing digitally, or currently stream it in my country, and the show includes this glorious line of dialogue:

A GIF of the character Toby Ziegler saying “There is no law, there is no decency.”

Just saw a clip of the Kanye doc.

  1. I’m going to watch this thing as soon as I can.
  2. Seeing him play All Falls Down and being ignored to his face makes me feel further motivation to keep working.

What is Avatar? – David Chen saves you a web search.

To-do:

  • regular blogging
  • update site
  • microcasting
  • Micro.blog community groups

I’ve stopped trying to customise the icons on my iPhone Home Screen. It’s too awkward and feels fragile once you’ve set something up (yes, including Shortcuts).

Forced labour eh, James Dyson.

When I see comments from people who haven’t realised that a photo they’re looking at is years-old, and my first thought is “well because this was clearly taken years ago, just look at it”… that’s when I realise I should invest much more energy into photography.

I never realised Write.as was doing so much… look at all that. It’s so good to see blogging and social network alternatives being so fully developed.

… wait, you can do private blogs and private commenting? Wow.

The other life-long hobby that has recently come to a halt: football.

From playing when I was younger, to full-on enthusiast bordering on pursuing a career (as a writer), much like video games it would have been a big part of my life.

But not anymore. Again, weird.

I’ve played video games for… 3 decades? At least? Most of my life.

That has gradually slowed over the past couple of years, and now since moving last summer I have not played a single big game. You know, the intense ones that demand all of your energy.

Feels weird, and good.

One of my favourite Micro.bloggers returned and I totally missed it:

See London through the eyes of Robert Brook.

Mac App Store not showing updates when one my most used apps does in fact have an update. Thanks Apple.

I’m not commenting on performance improvements to Micro.blog. I feel we’re at the point now where it’s correct to expect not just continuous improvements but a certain standard, whether for the timeline, individual sites, theme editing…

Now only problems are noteworthy.

Warmest day of the year so far here. A nice reprieve from the frost.

Let’s see how quickly this appears in the timeline…

Update for @TIL: full return next week.

Also:

Would it be good if there was a Facebook page for TIL, which functioned as a resource to help people see Facebook alternatives?

Or does this kind of thing already exist? Even if it does already exist, would it be good to have more?

Oh, NFTs from the British Museum. Just as Dr. Sloane envisioned, I’m sure.
