Mason Jennings show at The Dakota tonight. Lovely. 🎢

Excited to kick off SPS Ignite 2026! Today is going to be amazing.

Om Malik has been writing incredible blog posts lately! Velocity was amazing, Evidence continued, Tech & Media, and now FOMO. Delights me that he is still sharing his writing and thoughts with us β€”Β long after the days of Gigaom. πŸ‘

We watched Knives Out: Glass Onion tonight. Fit the pattern of the first one. Was filmed during Covid and it is so odd to see masks in a movie at the beginning.

A group of stylishly dressed individuals is gathered by a poolside with lush greenery and a clear blue sky in the background, promoting the film Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery.

Easy and just are “four letter words”.

Can we just add one more option?

It seems easy to do.

These signs are all over in Minneapolis right now.

Tyler and I went to Micro Center just to browse and look around. Seeing the prices on DIMMs was crazy. All the memory production is going to AI. $500 and more for a DIMM means nobody is building their own machines.

Crisp morning with light snow. Perfect time for a soak. ❄️πŸ”₯πŸ’¦

Much needed sauna time. πŸ”₯

Watched Bruce Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere today and it was great. I’m also a huge fan of his Nebraska album.

Miscut Perrserker

Tyler and I enjoy collecting PokΓ©mon cards together and one of the cards I collect is Perrserker, the Viking PokΓ©mon. In fact, I’ve collected all the English cards and am well on my way to having all the Japanese cards. Just today I discovered that Perrserker is now in Pokemon Pocket too.

We decided to go to Northfield today as an excuse to get some more driving time for Tyler, and also Tammy loves Content Bookstore there, Tyler and I both like Games n’ Geek, and if I’m in the area it only seems appropriate to stop at Little Joy Coffee for a delicious Flat White.

I had Perrserker on the brain because of this mornings Pocket discovery, and Tyler and I both knew that Games n Geek had a very unique card a few months ago β€” a miscut Perrserker. They were asking a lot for it back then and I was wondering if they still had it in the case. They did!

I gave the card a close inspection. I’ve never bought a miscut and this one is really cool. These are all 1-of-1 cards so the price is hard to figure out, but I felt good with where they were now. So now in addition to my full collection of Perrserker I have this cool miscut one. I’m debating sending it in to PSA to get it graded β€” thinking I will.

Excited to see that Perrserker has arrived in Pokemon TCG Pocket! The full art featuring a Viking Ship is incredible. Looking forward to collecting these digital ones along with my complete set.

My cousin Quinn @quinntchrest and I taking in our first game at the new St. Thomas Anderson Arena tonight!

The print copies of the Yearly Thing arrived from Lulu! I’m very happy with how the formatting worked with Vellum and the production from Lulu is terrific. It is really cool to explore the year of the Weekly Thing like this. You can buy your own on Lulu.

We enjoyed watching Finch tonight. The story was surprisingly touching given that it is just one character, Finch, with a dog and a robot (two robots actually). 🍿

We had a great time at the TCG only Minnesota Card Show at Canterbury today.

  • I got the five remaining cards I needed for the illustration set I was collecting.
  • I traded for a great set of Eevee evolution promo cards.
  • Tyler was on a mission and got a Bubble Mew!

Candlelight vigil in our neighborhood. πŸ•―οΈ
