I lost my Klean Kanteen water bottle, which I had since October 2014. Thanks for the ride, bottle!

It had a few dents and needed some attention to stay upright, but we had a good run together.

I’ve just ordered a replacement, and it will be a Klean Kanteen again. I hope it will accompany me for another 10 years. See you in 2034 for an update.

Deadpool, 2016 - ★★½

The fun is really fun (cf. all the -1 in the Everything wrong episode). The fights are long and a little too gory for my taste.

Still great.

(500) Days of Summer, 2009 - ★★★½

Still good.

It was my first rewatch in a long time, and I felt embarrassed by how close my younger self was to Tom. Better late than never.

I’ve found my go-to coffee shop for a great mocha in Rennes.

It’s my favorite since the one from the now-closed Café Craft, which served as my part-time office in the mid-2010s.

Ice Age, 2002 - ★★½

Not as good as in my memories.

YouTube tends to transcribe “ChatGPT” as “Chachi BT”. Funny.

When you search for “Chachi BT” on Google, there are so many results and pretty much all of them are indeed about ChatGPT. Meaning that no human edited the posts before publication to fix this typo even in titles, meta tags, etc. Scary.

Notes for later.

From the movie The Apprentice, Cohn’s 3 rules of winning are:

  1. Attack, attack, attack
  2. Admit nothing, deny everything
  3. Claim victory, never admit defeat

This serves as a perfect test of assholery. 🧘🏛️

Il y a 2 ans, peu avant la Coupe du Monde au Qatar, j’écrivais :

En 2026, la Coupe du Monde aura lieu aux États-Unis, pas exemplaire en termes d’émissions de CO₂ totales et par habitant, qui pourrait alors avoir à sa tête un type comme Donald Trump ou Ron DeSantis. Au final, guetter la voie vers un avenir désirable se joue tous les jours, pas tous les 4 ans.

Bon. On y est. Ça ne fait pas plaisir, mais la conclusion tient encore la route. 💪

Je fais ce truc de Mary Kondo où tu dois mettre tous tes bouquins par terre pour trier/jeter.

Si tu me demandes si je suis une personne qui a la lecture au corps, je dirais probablement non, intimidé par rapport à ceux qui ont déjà lu Émile Zola ou Victor Hugo, ce qui n’est pas mon cas.

Mais en fait, peut-être bien que j’en suis. Astérix, Gotlib, France Football, Mickey Parade, les Inrocks, Rock&Folk et quelques auteurs — quand même — m’ont accompagné jusqu’aux 43 piges. Est-ce que ça compte ? Est-ce que ça se transmet ? Est-ce que ça se jette ? Je suis face à un gouffre existentiel. Vous en pensez quoi vous ?

Bonne bière. Ses notes fruitées s’accordent bien avec des chips et un match héroïque du Stade Brestois contre le Bayer Leverkusen 🍻 × ⚽️

Walking to the bakery.

I just finished watching Modern Family.

For about five years, it’s been a constant part of our routine when my wife and I have lunch together at home. The last time we watched the show, Season 11—the final season—wasn’t available in France, so we rewatched the entire series. Now, we’ve finally completed Season 11. It was an emotional moment, both on screen and in our living room.

I’m not sure why it’s not more popular among our friends, but for me, it’s definitely in my hall of fame. 🍿

The Bad Guys, 2022 - ★★★★

A delightful mix of Ocean’s Eleven × Zootopia × Paw Patrol (are we finally done with villains sucking energy from meteors?).

We rented it yesterday and the kids — 5 and 7 — want to watch it again this evening.
