In the process of taking down Christmas decorations…
Me: “can we leave all the cards hanging? Wife: “I guess, why?” Me: “I like to see all the faces of the people we can’t see right now.” 8yo: “That’s not cool, that’s kind of… sad.” Me: 🤷♂️

Some people have passionate opinions about really dumb things.
WW84 sounds amazing in Dolby Atmos on a stereo pair HomePod.
WW84 itself was, uh… fine.
I hope my roof can support Santa’s sleigh, reindeer, and whatever sort of ride the Tooth Fairy uses, should they decide to stop by at the same time tonight.
Might need to reinforce the attic rafters, or maybe I should just be out tonight directing traffic?
Middle son lost his first tooth today. Going to be a busy night at the Stanclift House for mythical gift deliveries. 🦷 🎅

You have an application that is causing a system to run at 30% CPU utilization. You make a change that causes it to drop to under 15%.
Have you reduced the CPU load by 50% or by 15%?
Sure fire way to stress test your MacBook Pro battery.
Run the Java version of Minecraft on it. 🔥 🔋 📦
Last Minecraft update is broken on my 6yo’s PC. So you can imagine how that’s going right now.
Things I don’t need: a “Ultimate Gift Guide” from my dermatologist.
I sort of love how I have a running joke with my customer that anytime there is a security patch for our products it’s personally my fault. #tamlife

The only thing worse than technology that doesn’t work, is when it only works some of the time.
I sold all my Bitcoin last night. I made 5x what I invested two years ago.
That $1 just bought me a latte!
And I’m learning this party is happening while CNN is reporting the IHME model is predicting 658,000 deaths by March.
Quit being so ducking stupid.
Just learning there is a birthday sleepover of third graders going on two houses down from me. Part of me wants to explode the the other half just rolls my eyes because of course there is.

Fun fact: Out of 45 (soon to be 46) US Presidents, only 14 have served two complete terms. (FDR was three and some change) - and four of those have been since 1980.
The rest either lost re-election, served partial first terms OR died or resigned in their second terms.
Firmware updates to the home network Unifi switches. Just another average Sunday.

Today is still Wednesday, right? Asking for a friend.

Why am I getting goosebumps watching a motorcade? 😂
Our democracy is complicated.
It has always been complicated.
This is by design.
Breathe.
It’s a Pop Tarts and Chex Mix kind of day.
I’m being told that if you put your “I voted” sticker under your pillow tonight, the anxiety fairy brings you a Xanax.
Every four years, America learns in one night where all the cities and people are in Florida, and then promptly forgets.
Important poll: How much coffee is too much coffee today? When do I switch to whisky? Should I blend them instead? Is taking Xanax with this safe?
