Fun fact: `protocol Enumerable not implemented for nil of type Atom` is the error returned when you try `:value in variable` but `variable` is accidentally `nil`, such as what happens when variables that get set for real don't get set in tests.

I can't stand the fact that this wad is almost surely going to be the Democrat choice in 2028.

I made soup, so I burned my mouth.

As is tradition.

Real excited to dig into the next part of Silksong. I had to look up a hint to get there and it turns out I was a hair’s breadth away anyway.

The kid is reading our Calvin and Hobbes books and got to this strip, whereupon he asked me to explain the last panel. Because people (well, this household anyway) don't have thermometers hanging outside their windows anymore. We just have phones.

I am calling for a nationwide #NoCowards Protest to shame the Democrats for caving on the shutdown.

Ok, beat Lace and found the next boss in Silksong, but knowing what I know about HK, there's no way this is the _last_ boss. But instead I went a-wandering and found a whole-assed new zone. So that feels like the more pressing task.

You know, setting my streaming station to seed off Orbital is bringing up some tunes that I haven't heard in 20 years but absolutely remember. Did not expect that.

Ahh that wonderful time of year where it's 2pm but it feels like 6:30pm. End DST, please, because this "lying to ourselves for over half the year" bullshit is stupid.

The amount of AI generated art in slides at this conference, primarily used by older scientists, is killing me. Scientists please. Don’t use these ai platforms to make your figures or slides. They look bad and I have yet to see them meaningfully improve the message of talks.

That moment in Silksong when you finish a days long fight-die-runback cycle and make it past a plot point only to get absolutely bodied by a boss fight.

"X shouldn't be political." OK but it is. Now what?

Cool, cool. Just hit my head a little when I fell down. Nothing bad, but I'm going to have a headache today.
