Holidays are pretty good. Called the fam, my parents are coming out over the weekend so we’re opening presents then. Making a small feast for just us. Made Christmas cookies yesterday so that’s dessert. Other than that it’s just playing Hollow Knight and going on walks.
Oh man! It’s so uncanny but the hat is so festive! It embodies the series perfectly. A+
The code stack at my company. At one time, I was confident that I could affect change, add modern features, and make the process form streamlined and user friendly. Now I get to explain our tech debt to our new not yet soulless new hires.
Behind the Bastards and The Dollop both featured the park on their podcasts. If you’re interested in other flavors.

Uuuuh The Saga of Tanya the Evil is basically all about war time supply chain logistics. I was not expecting to read so much about trains and socks
Uhhh light novels are mostly text with maybe 5 illustrations in a 300pg book. Perhaps you’re thinking of manga?
I see you and raise, Las Vegas, NM.
They actually do care believe it or not. When our city council was voting on municipal fiber we showed up to petition our conservative city council representative to vote in favor. Guess who also attended, a representative from our federal senator’s office. Oh man the look on his face when only 3 members of the public showed up, two of them major supporters of municipal broadband, and the third spoke up to agree with us. Mmmm priceless. The city council man and conservative rep were so damn flustered. The senator’s rep took notes the whole time and we got to talk to him one on one. These outreach events do way more than you would think, this is how they gauge what they can get away with. Don’t let them discourage you, show up and bitch!
Spider is one of my all time favorites. I loved the LN, the world building was fantastic. The way the author laid out the mysteries of the world and the dynamics was perfection. Also, it’s a isekai that forces its characters to actually deal with living in another world. It’s not a throwaway plot point that explains why they’re so much better, smarter, ect than the locals.
So are you open to solar water heating? It’s the cheapest thing I can think of because it’s basically just running your water through pipes in there sun to make hot water. It’s not ideal for all r environments but it’s an effective way to get hot water.
Ok so I know that this is controversial, but if I recommend One Piece to a new person I recommend the live action. I know it has its flaws, BUT, it cleans up the pacing issues that I had in the early series. It honestly feel way more accessible than the daunting +1000 episodes, that’s not a binge watch, that’s a depressive episode.
Nope, just finished some scales and arpeggios and was moving on to some warm up pieces.
I am learning an instrument as an adult and my instructor commented “You’re so good at recognizing patterns.” That comment hit way harder than it had any right to.
My grandma is hard of hearing so she prefers written correspondence. I like using my fountain pen to write postcards because there’s something about the tactile feedback of a fountain pen. Like typing on a nice keyboard. Also I can change the color of the inks to match the season, stamps, and whatever.
Also she’s from the Bay Area, every house starts at a million. So just owning a home in the area she lived and worked in would make her a millionaire by default. It’s such a bad metric.
This is pretty much the best security one can expect for a bike. If you need better or to lock up your bike overnight, check if your town has bike lockers.
I wish I voted in Michigan so I could get that sweet werewolf sticker. I think I need to learn to draw.
Facts and I love their dedication. On year I had ordered some books online and the seller did not do a good job packing them. The box broke open and all of the books fell out so I was left with disappointment and an empty box. Now the postal service could have just given up and said it’s up to the seller to make it right. But a day or 2 later I got a box from USPS and it was most of the books! They had found the invoice in the wreckage and since it had the contents and my address, they gathered up all of the books they could find, properly packed them in a box, and sent them off to me. I was so impressed with the care they put into their jobs, postal workers are the best.
OMG!!! I get to recommend Delicious in Dungeon!!! The show is a bit of a slow burn, but the early episodes set up the incredible world building and the basic plot points. Then as it starts churning it gets crazy. The story is strong enough on it’s own, but it’s animated by Studio Trigger so the anime is pure perfection.
Piggy backing off of this comment. Most libraries offer more than just books. CDs and digital music aside, they also check out things. My library has a telescope that can be checked out for free as well as state parks and aquarium passes. Another one has a 3d printer available that lets you print at 10cents per minute. Libraries are incredible.
