Yesterday at the QWERTY Typewriter Festival in Carson, CA, Bryan Mahoney of The Typin' Pint released Issue 01 of his new zine Clack!  Bryan Mahoney and his wife at a booth selling the first issue of Clack! Over their heads is a large sign that says "Newsstand" and the front of the stand is festooned with issue No. 1 I've just finished reading it this morning (from cover to cover, though I admit I haven't finished the crossword yet) and it is truly fantastic! There's so much to love inside its pages. My favorite parts were the poem (who doesn't love a good clown story?!), numbers 9 and 11 of Tom Hanks' "Eleven Reasons to Use a Typewriter" and  Sarah Everett's essay about Barbie typewriters which has the cleverest of titles.   It's so jam-packed with typewriter-y and analog goodness that the editor didn't have the space to include a table of contents, so for those who need one, I've  typewritten one which I'm including below. Typewritten index card with page numbers and contents next to a small sticker. The limited zine release has 500 numbered copies. Brian got the first two copies, Tom Hanks snagged numbers 3, 4, and 5. First in line, I managed to get issue number 6. I saw Michael Hanttula swipe number 7, and Lyn, who had just purchased a lovely duo-toned gray Royal Royalite typewriter moments before, got number 8. Which number(s) will you collect? Because there really ought to be an issue number 2 and 3, I'm already brainstorming things that I might type up for them. And if somehow that doesn't happen, then they'll just have to go into my own zine... Close up of the front cover of Clack! Issue No. 1

Well that was a crap race for the Scuderia. Poor Charles just doesn’t look comfortable with the new regulations. Complete 180 with the car clearly suiting Lewis’s style. #F1

I’m very happy that Alton Brown is making smart, entertaining cooking content again. 👏🏻

I was cheering when Max hit the wall with Charles and Lewis on a front row lockout, and George managed to get away with racing hard through the final sector under yellow. Damn! Still, what a result for the Scuderia where they’ve been nowhere all weekend. #F1

Back in LA after a few days in Nashville to speak at an event. My brain is wiped! Ready for some downtime.

Hey San Diego, We All We Got is running a fundraiser to help sustain the free grocery distribution and deliveries. Can you spare some money to support the community instead of billionaires? Every dollar helps!

I don’t like the “this changes nothing” take. Yeah you were playing your b-team, but you were in a packed stadium on home soil against the worst team in the group that hadn’t scored a goal. You could’ve had a historic group stage performance. Now you’ve got doubt headed into the knockouts. Stupid.

Well that’s embarrassing. 😬

Sad to hear the news of Om Malik’s passing. An ever-present fixture in my feed reader for well over a decade. His perspective will be missed. Blessings to his family and friends. 🙏🏼

If you are a person that gets carsick when they look at their phone, try out the iOS “Vehicle Motion Cues” feature in Accessibility > Motion. It puts these little dots on the screen when it detects that you’re in the car and it magically eliminates motion sickness. Seriously.

Kevin Magnussen yeeting rednecks into walls in NASCAR is 100% my jam. Put the man in a monster truck rally and a tractor pull next. Instant TV magic.

Been building out my website's feed reader in the background the last week or two, and I'm really happy with the progress. I now have a dedicated desktop view with a three-pane layout similar to NetNewsWire, with integrated IndieWeb quotes/repost/like/bookmark. Nice!
