Tom Does the Flower Pose

And if you're in Vegas Monday, you should say hi!

Hey folks,

I’m headed out on the road again this week!

This Monday I’ll be at TMS Vegas the fan meeting for Frogpants, Coverville and of course The Morning Stream, which I am on every Wednesday.

The best part is that we’ll be doing a live Daily Tech News Show from there Monday at 1 PM Pacific. Our main topic will be about that AARP study showing that people older than 50 are playing more video games but spending less on them. Maybe Gen X is just better at gaming bargains. Can’t wait to talk that over with fellow 50+ Brian Ibbott and Scott Johnson while millennial Rich laughs at us.

I’m back to LA and on DTNS and It’s a Thing and then Thursday evening I fly to St. Louis (and drive to Greenville) for…. cleaning out my Mom’s storage shed! Hooray! Should I live stream that on TikTok? Probably. Let me know.

Meanwhile Top 5 is full steam ahead with a Roger Chang written episode on the top 5 cult tech movies! Set your weekend viewing lineup now.

We also have a brand new episode of Know a Little More out about Mastodon. You may be using it, but how much do you know about it?

I also got philosophical this week with Ruby Thélot about whether humans or machines will inherit the future.

And… I went a little viral with Blackpink fans. Again.

On Tuesday I could not get “‘꽃(FLOWER)” by Jisoo out of my head. So I wrote that on Twitter. And a few thousand BLINKS liked it and retweeted it. A couple challenged me to do the dance challenge. I declined but I did work the flower pose into DTNS.

What do you think?

My hands needed some flowers, I know, but otherwise dead on, right?

Anyway I need to get packing. I will try to write from Greenville next Friday and let you know how the storage container looks. Talk to you then!

Tom
