A bit of follow-up: the best way to find a lost notebook is to start a new one.

@Brad
Do you ever misplace a notebook? One that’s actively used and about halfway filled? It’s been about two weeks now …

@Brad Adding to this one: Blockhead says the first and last songs should be statements. Then figure out the rest.

Heard two thoughts on album sequencing in the past week that I am still thinking about:
Billy Woods likes the first two songs and the last two songs of the album to be strong.
Bob Mould always puts the lead single third.

Started, and finished, a book tonight. A short one, of course - the 33 1/3 on Madvillainy - but happy to get my face back in a book. 🎵📚

I recently added a playlist called “Fresh” in Apple Music to have a home for those random reminders, recommendations, and thoughts that pop into my head. They can be quickly deleted after one play, or moved to a more permanent playlist. I will say it is getting a workout so far. 🎵

Dabbled with the Apple Journal app and quickly realized these are things I should be posting on my micro.blog.

@cygnoir I’m on it! I’ve been testing the letterpress line scoring similar to this but with a different brand. It something I’m liking better than I thought so I’m anxious to test this one out.

My wife learned yesterday that I’m a big “elevation guy.” We went from 0’ to 4600’ in a few hours, with me constantly asking at each town what elevation we are at. I even made her search when the signs didn’t list the towns elevation. Good times. 🤣

I ruin my own Instagram algorithm frequently by spending too much time on a Reel I accidentally clicked and have no idea how to close.

Turns out starting HBO’s “100 Foot Wave” before my flight isn’t exactly the calming content I needed.

@Mtt just chiming in on the Pinboard train, with the Pins app on iOS. It’s more of a workflow situation for me, but it always works.

@AngeloStavrow just a Lock Screen custom button, maybe not exactly a shortcut?

@BenSouthwood got it thank you!

@BenSouthwood I could use one if still available.

@patrickrhone For sure! This one is from Good Made Better and I’ll work on a review. Sarah got a portable one too which fascinates me. I’ll see if she will review that one as well.

@Brad
@petebrown Haha! I guess I do have a 0-star for those albums I last about 3 songs and nope out of there. Those don’t even get the one star treatment.

@chrisaldrich ugh I wish I knew! This would be a dream scenario.
