1. RE: https://mas.to/@gifs_bot/116507305893041179

   both team logos have baseballs on them, also go giants, also lol

2. I mostly used TuneIn on bike commutes to work or taking the kid to pre-school but I don’t commute anymore and we walk to elementary school now.

   For all other bike rides, I have [star trek jargon tone] a vanity domain hostname cnamed to tailscale tailnet hostnames that are a tls’d by caddy and webauthn’d by authelia to Music Assistant as a Safari “add to home screen” + “open as web app” situation. Phew. But it just works.

3. canceled my tunein premium, which I always resented and only ever signed up for so that sonos radio wouldn’t have ads, and yet “some stations will still have ads even with TuneIn Premium", which never made any sense to me.

   I’m now down to my sonos gear just being hardware on the LAN.

4. Now that I don’t buy Philz Tesora beans for the drip machine at home, I also don’t put cream in my coffee.

   Weird and unexpected to change both at once but either because of how much I’ve cut fat out of my diet everywhere else or because other beans are just better black, I’m finally hip to black coffee, after 30 years of half and half (and 15 of those w/ Tesora).

   Go figure.

5. I switched from myfitnesspal to macrofactor in December after mfp’s barcode scanner stopped working (probably an iOS issue? whatever) and told it I wanted to lose 15lbs. It turns out mf is way, way better.

   After only sorta taking it seriously and blowing through targets at least one day a week, I just hit my -15lb goal, so I told it I want to lose another 10 over the next two months.

   Pretty neat!

6. never have I ever used a single-character slack message-highlight keyboard-shortcut on purpose; never to React to a post, never to reply to a post in a Thread, never to Forward a post, not sAve a post for later, never to add a post to a list (V?).

   never have I ever attempted to bookmark a meeting in chrome only to find that I accidentally toggled my microphone settings.

   I’ll put a crisp new $2 bill on the lady in the car.

8. As soon as she said it, I remembered that people have talked about adopting a similar system in the bay area on BART and recognized my error. If the cop had simply said “women only" that would have helped!

9. rookie mistake but on my first ride on metro in mexico city a cop saw us on the platform and suggested we ride in a different car further down.

   ok?

   went walked down the platform as the train was approaching but hit a fence and couldn’t go further so got on. the cop followed and suggested the same, we were like ???.

   Thankfully someone on the train spoke english and let us know my mistake.

   “He’s saying that this is the women’s car and you need to get off and back on."

10. completely unrelated to why I posted the O.P. originally but I’m pretty sure this cognitive error also contributes to a lot of boss gaslighting.

    it is akin to universalizing your experiences and the preferences they inform, to universalize one experience you had as the norm. such a bummer when not used for love or other reproductive labors.
