Thanksgiving went okay. Played some Lethal Company with friends over the weekend and holy fuck it's fun

I'm not sure that I'd call vanilla GNOME (or any modern DE) unusable for me, but Tiling Assistant is really great. I'm looking forward to GNOME's upcoming tiling changes so I no longer have to rely on an extension to give me quarter tiling.

Dash to Dock is also nice, though I don't necessarily mind having to hit Super to see my dock.

Happy (early?) Birthday!

My only issue with Ubuntu is that I effectively have to have two app stores to get everything I want. I'm not the biggest fan of Snaps, but they aren't showstoppers for me. If Ubuntu Software supported Flatpak (and fixed .deb installers) I'd happily daily drive it.

Debian because the swirl looks cool and the installer makes me feel old and sophisticated without having to be old and sophisticated.

It feels like one of those things that I'll constantly keep ready just in case, only to forget to charge it the one time I actually end up needing it.

My weekend started with my car battery dying while I was far from home. It was midnight, freezing cold, and I was in shorts and a tee-shirt. Not fun! Apparently my battery hasn't been replaced since 2017, so that's terrific. Thankfully I was able to get a jump (after waiting two hours for a tow truck), and got home safe. Aside from a new battery, I think I'll probably also invest in a portable jumper in the future. Y'know, just in case.

In other fun news, I've got a little over a month to finish three essays and study for a huge test that I've already failed once. Beyond that, though, I'm fine.

Very true. Hopefully I plan ahead a little better next time. ;)

KF1 was a huge part of my childhood, and I actually went back recently and started grabbing HoE achievements for the first time. Looking forward to 3 as well. :D

I'm okay. I had an extra long weekend which went by way too fast. I tried to spend the last day going for a quick hike at a state park, but I left way too late and only had like an hour before it got dark 😔

I just sunk basically an entire extended weekend on Killing Floor 2. It's garbage entertainment but I can't stop playing 😭

Watching George Romero got me in the mood for zombie sims, so I've also been edging my way back into playing Cataclysm: DDA.

For shower gel I use Olay Ribbons. For deodorant and cologne I just use whatever.

It's not that bad! I've got pretty sweaty hands, but mine do fine in the time it takes me to do dishes.

Did my mail-in ballot a few weeks ago. Just a handful of unexciting city and school council seats. Sadly none of the more interesting races are in my district - there was only one contested seat for me to actually vote on. :(

Sounds dumb, but dishwashing gloves. I don't have a dishwasher, and not getting my hands clammy when I do dishes makes the process infinitely less horrible.

Appreciates spiders and other crawlies.

Cool beans! Thanks as always for the update.
