Feel good enough to actually fool around in the kitchen again and made black bean burgers based off of this recipe as a springboard. They're not gonna replace a beef burger, but I think I like them pretty well on their own terms, at least in the unseasoned egg/bread/bean/onion/garlic mode of the thing. Maybe add some Worcestershire sauce or something.

The George Foreman grill company wants me to cook fish on their grill and I'm pretty sure this is a trap

I saw a reference to twine on Adventure Time last night and it made me smile. I've not touched it in a long time but I'm still glad it exists and I did preorder a book coming out by Anna Anthropy ages ago and hope that it is a good guide for it.

I've already got "Building Interactive Fiction with Twine" and it's also a good read. I'm just unfortunately unlikely to do stuff with reference books without having some kind of instructional environment.

"The Drudge Report" exists wholly in my mind as "a website your dad reads in the 90s"

How the fuck is soylent even a thing when a 12 pack of powder of it costs MORE

than sixty packets of carnation complete essentials aka Calorie Brown

Why is it such a damn ordeal to trade somebody money to see a weird tit

Ah cool good it looks like Patreon is doing the Thing again where apparently fuckin MasterCard or PayPal is throwing a big wobbly about people seeing a big wobbly

He ruins pizzas

Tingle is a noid, prove me wrong

Let's Hear It For The Noids

people talking about titty lizards reminds me of Zavai, who is a good and smart character. She got played on End of Time, where there was a limit break called Sexy Beam.

So imagine a shitty little pink haired reptite lady doing classic anime lady poses, a comical beat, followed by a gigantic psionic wave because "she just wanted to be sure"

And while hindsight might go "man that's a lot of wasted money that could have gone into a mortgage or something", for at least five of those years, I was either unemployed or underemployed or at an amazon hell factory, and for three MORE of those, the local economy was still bad enough I was worried our job would shutter the doors.

Now it's stable. Now we can look.

While I have been frustrated and weepy with how life keeps AGGRESSIVELY happening to us this June, I get to keep it in stride with the fact that Ferro is basically the best tag team partner that I could possibly have hoped for.

That, and my fits of cleaning mania have the place looking WAY better than it has in a LONG time. Observers might think that we were getting ready to move out...

We're at least LOOKING, but no, we just have TEN YEARS OF CRAP IN AN APARTMENT

Speaking of weird, mean-spirits design decisions, it felt weird that somebody behind The Critic decided that after the show was over and it was not going to be relevant at all to say "hey canonically after the series ended, Jay and Alice divorced"

The thing that boggles the mind: Medieval Times seems like it's just this huge cultural touchpoint that so many of us know about and yearn for

but there's like fuckin eight of them, period

one reviewer suggested that it's less like medieval times and more like professional wrestling with swords and horses

and that's actually good

at first I was thinking that it was severely fucked that Nevada, not even Vegas, had a medieval times

but thankfully one of the casinos managed to save me because the Excalibur casino straight up has their own IN-HOUSE version if it that plays every day but Tuesday

I gripe about the loading messages and the wumpus, but really, Ferro and I were even having a conversation about this in the car yesterday or the day before.

Before discord, we were both using AIM. And we were using a version of AIM *so old* that it lacked nowadays-essential features because the UI was so atrociously bad that neither of us could stand it.

Besides, it's not like I DON'T game. Games are fun.

So I haven't been using my computer too much for a while and when I finally got to sit down at it, I noticed that Discord added a games tab.

I reflexively looked up how to dismiss it forever (User settings > appearance > show games tab) but

I think I'm actually going to leave it on. Lord knows I don't interact with my friends enough and, as trite as it is, if I can do so through GAMEING, what's it hurt?

I accidentally only got three hours of sleep because I heard a noise that sounded like a phone call

but damned if I didn't get a lot accomplished today already
