Stand up and move for one minute.

I said, “Time to stand!”
Every hour I remind you, and every hour you ignore me. Must be great to be married to you. Stand up, O.K.? I know your B.M.I.

Almost there!
Keep moving for a whole minute to make progress toward your stand goal. Hey, one whole minute! I saw you doing that quick stretch and trust me, it doesn’t count.

You did it!

AirPods Pro left behind
This device is no longer detected near you. It was last located in your home. Using deductive reasoning, either you have left your home and didn’t bring your AirPods with you—an obvious oversight given that 24/7 usage is key to our quarterly earnings—or your AirPods Pro have left your home and you decided to stay put. Either way, this is highly concerning. Please report to your nearest Apple Store A.S.A.P. to explain.

Dreams left behind
Your aspiration to start a restaurant is no longer detected near you. It was last located in your mid-twenties. Also no longer detected anywhere near you are your dreams of owning a two-bathroom apartment, finding great love, and doing meaningful work.
