Fun day out today: friends, bike rides, and long walks in our former neighborhood 🌞 πŸ§‘β€πŸ§‘β€πŸ§’

Gonna be partaking in #FantasyBaseball for the first time this year (outside of Sorare)… anything I need to know? Any strategy or tips? ⚾️ 🧑 πŸ–€

Delightful weather, sun, and light these past couple of days so we were able to to set up the balcony.

I was even able to hang out there for a little break from work and read thru my acquisition of Obvious State’s reprint of Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven πŸ“š

A sunlit dining area features a wooden table, chairs, a paper lantern, and a view of a balcony with outdoor furniture.Several potted succulents and a leafy plant are arranged on a sunlit balcony with a white bench in the background.A rooftop terrace features a table and chairs surrounded by potted plants, overlooking city buildings under a clear blue sky.A blue mug with a design and a book titled 'Nevermore' are placed on a white table, with a lattice fence and climbing plants in the background.

Found some of my old journals β€” in notebooks I never truly completed, dating from the time (2017-2018) when I started dating my now wife, a time when I traveled around the world by myself for 9 months. Will be going through some “archiving and digitizing” of these across Day One and the built-in camera’s text scanning feature.

Very excited to revisit some of the most exciting time(s) of my life and our story!

A person is sitting on the floor facing a closed door, with another person watching them and subtitles reading, "Scott, are you waiting for the package you just ordered?".

A completed color puzzle with rows of yellow, green, purple, and blue circles is displayed along with the message "Solid! You solved puzzle #159."

What a great opener:

The world can no longer trust American tech. If that sounds dramatic, take a step back and consider the facts.
The United States is a nation in the thrall of authoritarianism, owned and operated almost completely by a far-right doomsday cult intent on betraying every alliance, every contract, every promise it has ever made (…) its decision-making is either erratic and illogical or dictated by interests that cannot and will not align with any reasonable principles of freedom, social progress, or ethical governance.
