just wanted to let everyone know i made a real good breakfast sandwich this morning. extra sharp white cheddar, a folded egg patty, pepper bacon, grunions, and leftover salsa roja from some bbq tacos
spent all week procrastinating on a work task because it involves an extremely complex system that i’ve somehow mostly avoided and when i finally forced myself to start it this afternoon, i was done 30 minutes later 🙃
there’s a bar near me that i love but they play loud music and have bad acoustics; i finally came with my airpods and put them in transparency mode and it’s a fucking game changer
there’s just nothing quite like the thrill of SSHing directly into prod so you can manually run a DELETE command
BREAKING NEWS: Congress amends stipulations of proposed TikTok ban. TikTok may remain in US app stores if they change their algorithms to make it so we don’t have to scroll past four to six ads, sponsored/commissioned posts, or live videos for every one normal post.
i opened a GitHub issue on Brogue (a modern version of the game Rogue) and it’s the only good issue i’ve ever opened
![A GitHub issue titled "[Opinion] Eels shouldn't be able to open doors". The body reads "Eels don't have a form factor that supports opening doors when you really think about it. Unless the doors are opening on their own (magically…?) shouldn't eels get trapped behind doors?"
7 hours later, a repository collaborator named zenzombie leaves a comment: "Brogue doors are designed for inclusive monster accessibility, without regard to form factor."
Then, 13 hours after that, I leave a final comment before closing the issue: "Fair enough! Hard to be mad about the little eel holes at the bottom of all the doors when they're in the name of accessibility."](https://cdn.davidcel.is/blog/1786061925873910272.webp)

ME [IN CHAPTER 4 OF FF7 REBIRTH]: dunno why people are complaining about the minigames, they don’t seem too bad?
ME [IN CHAPTER 10 OF FF7 REBIRTH]: o bahamut! release me from this everlasting torment!
i wish RPGs wouldn’t do that thing where they temporarily remove some team members and force a specific party makeup. i don’t want to play as Aerith. i don’t know how
you’ve tried Buying Dumb Domain Names… but have you ever tried Having Your Employer Buy Dumb Domain Names For You???
instagram just showed me an ad from a company called “ligma provisions” and the double take i took…
never thought i’d have this specific complaint about a game, but FF7 Rebirth does not autosave NEARLY as often as it should
i cannot believe the birthday present my partner and our friend BUILT for me 😭😭😭

the amount of coughing on my 7h30m flight was unreal. nearly constant dry coughing from multiple people and children. most people still not wearing masks. it’s just incredible that people accept this
