@buccocapital@dollarsanddata This was me with https://t.co/7PzrDpRc2u -- the forced act of writing the puzzle every . single . day . was so helpful for discipline and creativity and focus.
At long last, have built a new app. Still testing it out. Strava for Cooking:

They executed him on his knees in the street. I cannot believe what is happening to my country. I say this not as a Democrat, or a Republican, but as an American. They are boiling us like frogs, trying to acclimate us to the destruction of our nation.
A statement from the family of Alex Pretti, obtained by CNN:
"We are heartbroken but also very angry.
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.
The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.
Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you."
This video shows Alex Pretti trying protect a protestor who is being assaulted, then he gets viciously beaten by federal agents, then he's disarmed by a CBP goon and only after that is he summarily executed with 10 bullets. This is murder.
This is absolutely shameful. Agents of a federal agency unnecessarily escalating, and then executing a defenseless citizen whose offense appears to be using his cell phone camera. Every person regardless of political affiliation should be denouncing this.
Even if you take the conservative defense of each ICE killing, you’re left with “We haphazardly scaled up a poorly trained police force to storm into neighborhoods that voted against the president, where we antagonize the local population until someone resists arrest, and then we kill them,” which is morally horrendous on top of being an absurd way to do immigration policy.
@BryceM88 lotta overlap - two best recent shows I saw in Durham were florry and Brian dunne, worth checking them too. “First it was a movie….” And “rockland county” respectively as the tracks
@BryceM88 dehd - "light on", liquid mike - "mouse trap", ratboys - "morning zoo", eades - "present in the moment", snow ellet - "to some i'm genius", black country new road - "good will hunting" is a platter of my faves
@BryceM88 let's do.... "taxes"... lead single on newest album. but man, choosing just one really is a challenge. "long island city..." is a grower, "100 horses" choogles, if either of those compels ya more for deigning a listen
@levelsio Agree: started Water Cooler Trivia as side project . Only went full-time when biz fundamentals were strong. Sold when I knew it was time.
Started Twofer Goofer as side project while at (diff) full-time gig. Never made enough $ to justify full-time, so sold it.
