I never did read the Dragonlance novels when I was younger. I’m reading Dragons of Autumn Twilight now and the “friends” are all absolute assholes to one another. 🤣


With all the talk of UFOs lately, I’m kind of hoping we get the “Childhood’s End” treatment. I’m ready. 🛸


Just finished importing my literature notes from “4000 Weeks” by Oliver Burkeman into TheBrain App.

4000 Weeks Literature Notes in TheBrain
4000 Weeks Literature Notes in TheBrain


I’m finally trying out TheBrain app.

Two things stand out. Deliberate terminology. You have a thought and a thought has a type. I find that refreshing. This begs for a relatively flat structure with tags added for flavor.

I have a thought about Groundhog Day. It’s a movie type. And its genre tag is comedy-ish. Just like, well, my brain.


I just spent WAY too long investigating how to sync a highlighted Zotero pdf into Readwise with the highlights intact. All I had to do was look at the imports on Readwise to see that PDF is supported. Worked great! 🤦‍♂️

This is why I’m currently simplifying my digital stack.


Lines like this are why I love Murakami.

It cannot be this heavy of a lift to PREpend text to an Apple Note can it? Best I can tell, you need to:

  • Find original note
  • Get body
  • Delete original note
  • Create new note with new text followed by the original body text.

Currently importing all of my Readwise highlights to Apple Notes via the Readwise API and Shortcuts. Gonna try native Apple stack for writing, notes, etc. for a bit.
