I did. My point is that this productivity tool hurts your productivity until you tinker with it to make it less annoying.

Sighing (a lot) and reminding myself that every time the 29th rolls around I get a three-day weekend.

I guess we don't get to pick where we find the muse, do we? :)

I've never been able to tell.

It was a dream about my actual last job.

At least in my work instance, by default it sends me an alert any time someone posts a reaction emoji in one of the dozen chat channels.

That could explain my dream about setting up a projector in a room with a poisonous atmosphere, where everyone except me has a space suit...

Same as we did last time. Strengthen our relationships and trade with friendly non-US countries.

There's a space station sim from 2001 that I still play because I love it so much: Startopia. I'd like Startopia 2 to be pretty much the same as the original (including graphics) but with higher-poly models and better scripting tools for modders.

For-profit social media, certainly. I don't trust it anymore. Astroturfing, data-harvesting, I feel like they're all made to fuck us over in some way.

As a bookish child, I made weekly trips to the library. To get to the kids section I had to pass the large print shelf, and there was one book that was always there: The Spitting Image. The gargoyle on the cover scared me! But when I finally looked him straight in the eye I found that he was trying to look furious, but came across as a little goofy. That's the way I imagine myself, too.

Moments I have truly known I was alive:

• Using the restroom after chopping chillies but before washing my hands
• Hearing my boss say "Can I talk to you in my office...?"
• Seeing the jerk who swerved around me doing three times the speed limit get stopped by a cop
• Playing with a kitten I had just adopted

I've watched anti-Nazi TV, read anti-Nazi books and sung along to anti-Nazi songs. But I think my all-time favourite has to be Surf Nazis Must Die.

Wanting to die is a little 2019, isn't it?

Yuri's Night. April 12th. Celebrating the first human being to make it off this ridiculous planet, however briefly.

1. Move to Australia.
2. Miss.

Nice.

I just bought a set of weird dice, and they're a bit of a disappointment. Someone made them by carving the right number of facets off a sphere at random and numbering them. They couldn't possibly roll fairly. Not what I expected from the photos.

Microwave spray cans.

Happens to me every time I read an article on quantum physics. Pretty sure the universe is just messing with us at this point.

And there's a small but significant number of people on the internet who use "can" and "can't" interchangeably.

Batman and Robin appeared in an episode of Scooby Doo. The episode is considered canonical, meaning the Scooby Doo universe has a rich history of masked criminals, crime fighters and significantly, real monsters.

There's an unreleased Toho movie where Batman fights Godzilla, too!
