Mastodon by @merlinwisdom@mastodon.social

Being on time for things is a sign of character and respect. Adults who are pathologically late for things are unconsciously telling the world that other people’s time is worthless to them.

One of my pet peeves. It’s 95% within your control to be on time. Just takes planning.

There’s a definitive number of people needed for any work meetings to make them productive. Too little and things are missed. Too many and the call is derailed, people talked over, and things are missed. I’m currently on the latter and it’s terrible.

Back in December I got a new truck. When I went to take it off the dealer’s lot they parked it in between 2 F-350s. It was comical. The other night we’re leaving a brewery and see a massive truck parked in front of me and we both cracked up laughing. It doesn’t look real!

This was a rough series for the Orioles. I miss the 2012-2016 crew. Those were fun seasons. ⚾️

Weekly Notes. 5/2/26 📝

📚 Dune. Already read it years ago but got a Libro.fm subscription and doing a listen through.

🎵 The Saddest Landscape - Alone With Heaven. The bands first release in 11 years and it rips.

📺 The Boys. Final season and so fair it’s just ok. Only 3 episodes left and curious how they’re going to wrap it up.

📺 This is a Gardening Show. This is amazing. A handful of short episodes about 16-18 minutes long. The kids are fun and Zach Galifianakis is funny and sincere. “The future is agrarian.”

🎮 The Messenger. Obsessed.

❤️ Saturday morning walk to the market with Jacy and Nora and seeing some of the Kinetic Art Sculpture race.

Cool idea to display dried flower in an up-cycled window pane.
