Hey, you!

Yeah, you. The one reading this.

You're pretty cool!

Anyway. Just wanted to say that. Later!

John Linnell of #TMBG just recorded 4 songs in Latin. Speaking as someone who is currently warring a They Might Bi Giants shirt, and as someone who was Senior Consul in my high school Latin Club, I’m more than a little excited.

I seem to be doing something right, online-privacy-wise, because I keep getting ads for watch of the month things.

Y’all.

I haven’t worn a wristwatch since 2004.

Broke out my SNES Classic and played some old games with my kids. They weren’t fans of Donkey Kong Country but really liked Kirby’s Dream Course.

Currently running three count em THREE D&D campaigns. I’ve never actually been a player in a D&D game, and it’s been a hot minute since I’ve played any TTRPG. But all three groups are pretty chill and excited and it’s good times. Even if we have to play virtually still.

Ordered an M1 Mac mini on Amazon. The one they sent was used and locked to someone else’s AppleId. Not impressed.

Then, to really crank it up, we played “try to guess how much the dogs weigh”. Tonight was lit, fam.

Playing chess and Pente around the fire. It’s a nice way to pass an evening!

Just showed my kids some #TMBG and #OkGo videos on YouTube. They only liked the ones that were animated or featured dogs. Fair enough.

Hey it's Bandcamp Friday! These are getting more rare as Bandcamp realizes they need to actually make some money, but they're still doing them! Go support some artists! And...well, PayPal and/or a credit card processor. Capitalism, amirite?

Idle games are amusing just for the insane numbers that happen.

"Welp, these sixteen thousand whales I caught ain't gonna cook themselves!"

*clicks twice*

"there, NOW they will."

Got the message that yap.net shut down today. I felt guilty for not spending more time on the site. I did like the idea of what they were going for. Things start, things end, we learn and move on. Alas.

So, I think Both Fuser and Hades should be higher on this list, but whatever it's @jeff 's list, not mine.

BUT

He links to a collection of The KLF's that I didn't' even know existed. I tried to explain the KLF to my kids a while ago and they were confused. Which is unsurprising.

Sunday family board game: Neon Knights 2086. It’s a slow but fun racing game set in the future as seen through the 1980s. I got it on a massive sale, and we like it. Also the “Laser Ryders” soundtrack pairs well with this game. #boardgames
