Sick to my stomach.

#

Last night I went to bed happy that, for the first time this year, it was warm enough to sleep with the windows open.

By morning I wished I had put the air conditioners in the windows.

#

Thanks to @chuckjoiner for interviewing me about Unread 2 on MacVoices.

#

CNN: A 5-year-old boy was pulled over in Utah on his way to California to try to buy a Lamborghini

I have so many questions about this.

#

My “e” key is sticking. On my 16-inch.

#

I was interviewed in this week’s Club MacStories newsletter about Unread 2 and my vision for Unread’s future. Check it out if you are a Club MacStories member.

#

I am going to let the domain names trumpadministration.wtf and trumppresidency.wtf expire on June 1. If you want them I am happy to transfer them at no cost. Just get in touch.

#

TIL: Stress dreams can have sequels.

#

I released an update to Unread that adds full trackpad and mouse support, new keyboard shortcuts, and several other improvements.

#

Last night I participated in an adult spelling bee via Zoom (running from a macOS volume dedicated to Zoom and without access to my data).

Apparently liaison has two i’s.

#

It looks like I cannot avoid Zoom, so I created a dedicated APFS volume and macOS installation for it.

#

This is an interesting new Inoreader feature.

#

Hoping that the next iPhone adds Mask ID.

#

Thanks to Macworld for reviewing Unread 2.

#

Congratulations to Stefan Reitshamer on the release of Arq 6. I have been using Arq to back up my Macs since before version 1.0.

#

Is it weird that my way of unwinding at the end of the day recently has been to watch Andrew Cuomo’s press briefings?

#

My smoke detectors did not get the memo that this is not the best time to demand new batteries.

#

I ran out of coffee a few days ago.

Today I finally have a reason important enough to go into a store. I can get coffee now!

#

Watching Back to the Future. In 1985, 1955 looked like a much more innocent time.

#

Pete Buttigieg guest-hosted Jimmy Kimmel last night. The monologue is hilarious.

#

Tonight we had our Boston CocoaHeads meeting online. I missed the in-person interaction of our regular meetings, but it went well.

#

In line at grocery store. There is one line snaked all the way to the back of the store. This is far beyond even a just-before-Thanksgiving crowd.
