A little bit chunkier than normal, but that just adds to the Wilson Fisk look (from the TV show). Sleeves fit better than this shows, just because it's hard to hold this out with no mirror available.

True story, I'm looking at a restaurant that has a "nude pairing." I'm trying to figure out what that means? What's your best guess - serious or otherwise?

corrected the barista and said it should not have the mouth part near the split because it'll spill, but then proceeded to use sarcasm to say he'd buy me a new shirt. Gah. Brain is fixating, when I should be jamming!

I fear I've become a Karen. (For the record, most Karens, actual people named Karen, that I've known have been lovely, sweet people, and it bothers me that their name has become synonymous with white shitbird.) People at coffee shop put lid facing cup split, got coffee all over myself, and guy...

Start of my jam game for #QuebleJam! Hosted by @queble.bsky.social . Is it great? Probably as good as I can do alone!

I just learned AYCE stands for all-you-can-eat, *not* the gender description for "Canadian-sexual." Weird!

This is probably the least of your worries with AI coding, but one of my problems is it always bloats your code with comments, which sounds stupid, but actually it uses more energy to burn the tokens by adding them, and then again by having to send them and maintain them. It's a smash and comment.

Part of therapy for my mom after my dad passed a few days ago is just having someone to watch soap operas with, but to be honest, the acting level has plummeted very badly. This isn't even remotely good anymore. Young and Restless? More like Old and Restless Leg Syndrome.

Despite my dad passing hours before my birthday, I'm honoring him by utilizing his method of cleaning: throw stuff out, ask questions later to see if it was important. So far, it's more cathartic to do not in my own house than in it. ๐Ÿคฃ

Well, that's that, I suppose. I couldn't hold his hand (my hands were ice cold from typing so much, didn't want to make him colder), but I had my hand on his arm on the sheets, at least.

That's totally fair! It would almost certainly be horrific.

Thanks for hosting #TurnBasedThursday, @badgerpunch.com!

#StarSpark is a #roguelite turn-based fighting game where you compete in a battle anime inspired tournament against fighters from across the universe.

That's fair and a very good point! I know they're supposed to be working on a paid asset library, but I haven't heard about it in some time. Perhaps I'll ask about it again.

despite being used by a ton of people. It's painful, but the show must continue, as they say, because the plugin is useful to so many.

Not impossible, but unless you're a pro, and/or have experience eliciting money from folks when the circumstances make it free even if they don't contribute anything (i.e. super-well-established and professional level), it just won't happen. My #Firebase plugin makes zero money...

The major issue I see with #GodotEngine being a wildly popular, open-source game engine is that it inspires most of its community to _also_ make everything they do free and open-source, and then no one can make money to sustain themselves, or very little, anyway. It's an interesting conundrum.

It's almost my birthday, and I get to spend it taking care of a dying parent. That'll be my final whine on the subject!

Sure hope the swag bag was worth a Nobel prize.

We need a gun safe, just to keep the smart cat from getting to her treats.

The rule of thumb in Godot is that if you have to await a frame in _ready or any other callback, you are almost certainly doing something wrong. #GodotTips

Does Gemini have some sort of soft limit, where you give it too much context and it just starts blowing stuff up and forgetting to take names? Definitely seems like there's a bug somewhere. It can still proceed, so not a hard limit, but it's ugmo.

Honestly, at this point, my dryer is 90% dryer balls and 10% clothing to dry. They're like tribbles.

Yeah, that they trip people a lot by accident! ๐Ÿคฃ

Yeah, I mean, of course women throw themselves at me all the time. But that's the price I pay for having really big, awkward feet that trip people. Men do it too.

Well, I've gotten so invested that I'm getting shoes specifically for Zumba. It's so unbelievably fun, and my current shoes make my side shins hurt awful-bad.

Anyone ever see Wag the Dog? It was a pretty good movie.

A method declaration written in GDScript. The method takes two arguments, both of which have a name followed by a colon, which indicates the intent to specify argument's type. However, after the colon there is no type, and the method signature just continues to the next token.

True evil is knowing that types are optional after the colon
