Im always shocked that retailers still exist. I rarely do in-person clothes shopping anymore.
I had been meaning to go to Macy’s to buy some coats but kept delaying it. So I go today, get some coat...
I generally need to see something in person if there aren’t any professional reviews or where the review scores are so close. When it comes to fabrics I have to touch them to make sure I will be ok to wear them eg not all “pure cotton” is the same for me.
Here in Australia this journalist called Greg Sheridan who thinks Australians should have more babies and less migrants.
Greg, have you seen a baby build a house? We are short over 100,000 construction workers and also short on childcare workers to care of the children we already have. 🤦♂️

What’s the best way to use Nostr? #nostr
@jack now’s your chance to stage the real coup and recruit everyone from OpenAI to switch from X to Nostr so the media have to join Nostr to keep up with what’s going on at OpenAI/Microsoft AI and then they tell everyone else about Nostr
Yesterday my wife & I shut down her Square Online store after 3 years due to a price hike by Square when they deleted their lowest tier plan. I’m definitely not able to claim I’m any kind of E-Commerce or SEO King after the embarrassing loss we made on that site with even the lowest cost plan, but I couldn’t recommend that platform to anyone due to really bad pagespeed with the page builder being too bloated with DOM and other engineering faults that were probably very bad for SEO. We may spin an online store back up again in the future, but it will be with a different provider.
Threads keeps crashing so it looks like I’m back on planet Nostr! Whats been happening?

They said I’ll never own a house if I keep eating avocado on toast, then the price of houses has doubled or even tripled since then.
Might as well live it up.

To be honest I have a long & complex relationship with Meta due to being on Facebook, Instagram & have a Quest 2.
They have made it incredibly easy for anyone with an existing Instagram account to sign in, then it allowed me to automatically add everyone I already followed on Instagram, but the people I have followed they can still opt out of me following them if they have a private account when they sign up.
So many people & companies are already on there due to how easy this process is. I have already ported across 4 other Instagram accounts I have because it was so easy to do.
There are so many good memes over there. The vibe is people on the exodus from Twitter who are super happy to be giving Elon the finger as well as creatives such as photographers & artists from Instagram feeling like they can be part of the discussions so it is merging into one mega community.
I am a big believer in the Jobs To Be Done philosophy. I think Zuck has played a smart game getting Threads ready (including using Instagram to build it instead of another FB-engineered piece of bloatware) & Elon has hit a critical mass of people wanting somewhere else to go.
Nostr feels like the Batman in this equation. It could be the protocol that the world needs for freedom, but Meta seem to have won today with Threads.

I did a naughty thing today & got on the bandwagon for Threads.
