Amazon’s Drop In feature has to be enabled on the device and contacts have to be given access to drop in. You may not like the Drop In feature, but to say that once you enable it anyone can just listen in without you knowing is incorrect.

Wait. Is there no way to uninstall an app from the Apple App Store? Like you have to find the app on your screen and make it to the wiggles to uninstall an app on iOS?

Has everyone forgotten that the government was fully funded before the Christmas vacation until president childish idiot decided he wanted $6 billion for a wall? Why are these politicians playing with the future of the country for something that was already done? Just pass the same bill you passed in December and tell Mr. Tiny Hands Drumpf to suck it about his pet wall project.

And let’s not forget that the idiot centric GOP controlled BOTH HOUSES of Congress and didn’t even TRY to get funding for a wall because president I’m A Tiny Baby said Mexico would pay for it.

Why can’t we just dump slime on these idiots on live TV like they were on Double Dare?

The largest utility in the US has filed for bankrupcy to proctect itself against lawsuits.

$30 billion is a lot of money.

At least services will not be affected.

Today’s minor annoyance:

Got a pop up message on my LG TV that the MLB.tv app is no longer supported, but the web page they directed me to has no information on why support was dropped.

Good thing I have my Roku to fall back on this season.

A tiny screw shows why iPhones won’t be ‘assembled in U.S.A.’

Technically, 3 weeks is temporary. Just Saying.

Hey Feedbin users I have a question about the web app. Is there a way to activate keyboard shortcuts? Just a couple simple ones: J for next story, K for previous story.

I’ve never thought of pets in this way but Christopher Hitchens is correct.

Cats think they are gods and dogs think you are god.

Today I realized that my Fitbit has a stopwatch setting so I don’t have to use my phone to time my coffee Brew time (which I forget to do half of the time).

What I would do if I were in Congress and dealing with the shutdown:

Bring up the funding bills passed in December of 2018 every single day. No changes. Straight Up or Down vote.

Every.
Single.
Day.

Why would a monitor work with one input device but not three other input devices?

I’m not going to link to where this came from because it doesn’t really matter

Free as he is from honesty, decency, manners, moral scruples and any sense of good taste, Trump is able to move through our postmodern media landscape with the brutal straightforwardness and eye for a winning image of an older kind of strongman politician.

What matters is that there are people who see that Drumpf for what he is and do not care about what comes next.

John Wick Chapter 3 is coming this year!

Color me excited.

Seth Godin wrote about project metrics Wednesday and I think his advice can go beyond just metrics.
