It would be best to set some more clear goals if you actually want the work week to change.

Oddly this entire one is about gear, from troubles buying it, to a bunch of random gear I bought that I love, to a book series all about gear.

Let’s make some room in my house!

I am swimming in a sea of new EDC gear I need to figure out how to carry, what to use, what to sell and all that good stuff.

Why Numbers is an app you are not using as much as you should be, and it’s really great.

I have been going pretty crazy in Numbers with tracking stuff, so I can help determine what I should actually keep, and what I should buy. And also, why Reeder is just fantastic.

You notice how every interaction now is this awkward dance of talking about the thing you waited over a year to get the hell out of your life, anyways I also bought a tactical cat harness — so you know you want to read this one.

I wish more people were grasping how huge the seemingly small changes are for not just iPadOS, but iOS too — not so much for macOS though.

Apple News is really fantastic, but people hate it because we are used to the firehose approach of scrolling through content — that’s not Apple News.

The most powerful accessory you can get for your iPad is the Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro, but I can also explain why that is.

The new iPad Pro is nice and heavy, but let’s talk about why I need to carry so much crap to the office.

I’ve found that I have way too many bags, so I sold a bunch, but now the same is happening with all the EDC related gear so I think I am going to do figure out how to sell a bunch of that stuff.

Why digital notes are always better when theory than they are emotionally. Also, you need some S-biners.

That thing when you spend decades telling every other company you know best, only for it to blow up in your face — also talk about bags.

It was the best camera they ever put in a “Mac” and then the iPad Pro came onstage and was like “that’s cute Mac people”.

In this edition I humblebrag about how many articles I have in the queue, get to write the word queue, and I show off the coolest vintage lighter. Among other things.

I feel really good knowing that I am not the only person loving sling bags and Mystery Ranch — San Antonio might be a bag town, which is nice to know.

Why don’t our keyboards charge with a Qi charger, and why do I have to bother with so many charging cables.

That then when you place a dozen bag related items on eBay, but still have 10 backpacks left over that you can’t bring yourself to part with.

Why can’t I get an Apple Pencil insert for my actually good feeling pens?
