Am I doing something wrong or is the ability to pin widgets in iPadOS 13 not available on an iPad Mini?

Just finished season two of *Stranger Things*. All in all a fairly good season, though not at all as good as the first one. Maybe that was lightning in a bottle?

Season 3 of Jessica Jones is really improved when combined with a healthy helping of bourbon.

Really That Good: Independence Day

Now this seems like the perfect video essay for me. I love this movie and I think it is way under appreciated by critics and essayists alike.

Every singer, no matter how technically skilled, has their voice change by time. Every singer but Robert Smith. I don’t understand how it’s possible for him to sound exactly the same today as he did twenty-five years ago.

Pro audio stuff can sometimes have the silliest names. Despite the name and the URL though, MNTN seems like a really interesting solution for immersive audio.

I just setup an old iPod Touch for Iris to have as her first MP3 player and I gotta say that iOS 6 feels like an old friend.

The fact that my phone throws up notifications with the actual text ”notification” instead of what it’s supposed to notify me about, that is an iOS 13 bug, right?

Iris, my four year old, has convinced herself lately that she loves Star Wars. A few years ago she got a book called ”When Rey met BB-8” which is a child-appropriate version of the scenes in ”The Force Awakens” where Rey is introduced and where she mets BB-8. The book ends just prior to Unkhar Plot’s goons trying to steal BB-8.

I’ve read that book to her a lot and she knows that I really like Star Wars, so I think that is why she really wants to like it as well. So a few weeks ago, after getting tired of reading that book *every night*, I suggested that we’d try to find a comic book version of the whole film and read that. So we bought that from Comixology and since then, whenever I’m the one reading to her at night, we’ve slowly made our way through ”The Force Awakens*

Tonight we read the lightsaber duel between Rey and Kylo Ren and I asked her if she wanted to see it in the movie, which she did. So we watched that scene on the iPad and at least according to herself, she liked it and thought it was exciting but not scary.

So fingers crossed that she won’t have nightmares tonight and that she still wants to like Star Wars tomorrow.
