Nothing exciting, really. TTRPGs, medieval reenactment, woodworking, programming, philosophy, and a whole lot of reading.
- I tried to swipe "Office Snacks" into my grocery list but my iPhone thought I obviously meant "Oxide Smacks".
- I'll give it a pass on not knowing how to categorize "cat bribery", which obviously goes under dairy with the rest of the cheese.
- Singing my list to myself: Dr. Pepper, creamers, and a block of cheddar cheese Penne mozzarella salad, burger paddies please Grape tomatoes, office snacks, now what else do I need? I feel like I was possessed by @b0ud1c34.bsky.social and @chaoshouse.bsky.social...I came up with a melody!
- I can't take Zoom seriously as a platform because it can't cope with the fact that users may actually be using more than one device at a time. Even Teams doesn't log you out for multiple concurrent sessions.
- Much insensitive. Great savings. Wow.
- I read Fran Wilde's A Philosophy of Thieves and it was delightful. Every time I picked it up I was immediately ear wormed by Arena's Paradise of Thieves. That was a great week.

- Thank you Google for being absolutely, completely, and utterly useless. You somehow manage to disappoint me more every day.
- Of note, I am trying to verify the assertion that "cannot" is more standard than "can not". Personally, I believe it is a pile of prescriptivist meadow muffins, but data would change my mind.
- I really should be in bed right now.
- See a goblin, post a goblin.
- Best job interview in cinema history.
- Blix totally betrays Darkness at the first opportunity, and Darkness isn't even mad. He put the little bugger to task because they're the foulest creature in the woods, and that's exactly what a good evil lord should expect. It would be a disappointment otherwise.
- I think it is cool that Darkness likes bratty goths. Something we share in common. There may be a correlation vs causation argument to be made here.
