The Democratic National Convention is in town next week, so we’re getting Ospreys practicing high-speed passes a thousand feet directly over the house.

Really enjoyed this interview with game developer Zach Gage, most recently of Puzzmo fame. This part especially resonated:

I never want people to be playing one of my games and go, “What am I doing? Why am I doing this right now?”

I start every day with Puzzmo’s Crossword, SpellTower, and Pile-Up Poker, and never feel sucked in to my phone like I do with Instagram et al.

Still desperately trying to retrain my Instagram/Threads algorithm into something enjoyable, but seems like a lost cause. For reasons totally opaque to me, it’s exclusively clips from TV shows I’ve never watched and stories of medical tragedies from inspirational widows I’ve never met. All efforts to mark everything "not interested" have bore no fruit.
