To kop or not to kop ... is not even really a question is it?

He has a new record out too.

Love that album. Nobody can tell a small, sad story like (ie. 5:15 am) like he can.

Lol. Little Jonny Bunning ("is a PhD student in the History of Science & Medicine program at Yale") so wants his academic narrative to be true, in the face of the stubborn disagreement of reality. It's adorable.

Noted and agreed!

Leo that's just mean. Keepers are people too! https://streamable.com/2o9jr https://streamable.com/sclh3 Also, how the fuck do you lose to Wolves on Wednesday and beat Man City on Saturday, Chelsea? Actually I don't care -- it happened.

Where was this G? I need that pork belly breakfast!

Happy Birthday Todd!

The 1975 -- A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships This is getting some hyperventilating reviews like "OMG it's OK Computer for millennials!" which is bollocks of course. But it is very good in parts and quite thought-provoking as a whole. For me, the B-side kind of meanders a bit, but it's one of those rare albums nowadays that absolutely merits a few listens all the way through.

The 80s were more or less ambitious?

Happy Birthday Bryan!

So I've been using the new Screen Time feature in iOS12 to lock the kids' iPads and phones overnight to remove temptation and alleviate bedtime arguments. Was working well. Until I notice today that a couple of notable apps (Clash of Clans, Netflix) are no longer blocked on Alec's devices even when Screen Time is active. Hmm, that seems ... mysteriously convenient. I reset everything (including the master passcode) on his stuff and on my phone, which is the main controller. No change. So I then manually add these apps to the "Always Allowed" list, then manually delete them. No change. Try this with a couple of other apps and it works just as you'd expect -- add them and they become accessible, remove them and they are blocked again. Doesn't work with CoC or Netflix. I check to make sure that he's signed into them through his iCloud account (since that's how Screen Time works) and not some new profile, and he is. Am now stumped. Can still frustrate the sneaky little fucker by manually setting a usage limit of 00:00 for each app each night at bedtime, but 1) that resets automatically at midnight and 2) I'd just love to know how he's pulled this off without knowing the passcode (quite sure of that) or leaving any trace. Any ideas?

Nice! I ate a lot of horrible crap in Vegas, as one does. Did have a superb Tomahawk ribeye at Jean-Georges Steakhouse -- one of the best pieces of meat I can remember, and I've seen a few. Experience slightly tarnished by the 500% markups on the wine list. Stuck to cocktails.

Also this. It bounces. His hair is tragic though.

Young The Giant -- Mirror Master Straightforward, but enjoyable.

Don't miss that. On the other hand, nothing appears to be on fire.
