Alright. New people seemingly following me out of nowhere in today's influx. Did I get recommended to you? What made you follow me? Inquiring minds want to know!
I just hooked my CPAP up to my home automation and monitoring so I can track data over time for it. Is it unnecessary? Hard yes. Am I delighted? Also yes.

I swear I'm not praising gen AI in this post.

AI Limit, the soulslike game, is actually pretty goddamn fun and I don't know how it flew under my radar.

I'm not much of a holiday person, particularly Christmas. They've always rubbed me the wrong way. Christmas, in particular, reeks of bad memories because of my scumbag dad continuously making hurtful choices that he never really learned from or grew out of. This has led to me being a resentful

Dry aged prime rib, thousand layer potatoes deep fried, pasta, two kinds of bread. Was a good day for food. Lot of work, but good.

A thing I want to impress to all the ladies, femmes, dolls, and anyone else who wants to:
It doesn’t matter how tall, short, strong, skinny, passing, etc or anything like that, you can *ALWAYS* be someone’s lil princess and don’t let anyone or anything in this world make you think you can’t.

Chat, is it mean to do the boxes inside boxes gift gag on a kid and have one of the box layers be a game console he wants? Asking for me.

After ~8 hours of playing it, I'm still not sure wtf to think about Cult of the Lamb. The core loop is frantic in a way that I'm curious about but I don't feel like I'm excited to do it. The resource management and upgrades are a lot to track. The combat could be better too. I don't know.

New desk new desk. Need to clean up a touch more, and need a longer displayport cable so I can move the laptop to the table, but it looks nice and I feel less physically broken than yesterday when I hauled it around and built it!

Setting up a new desk sucks ass (but mostly the tearing down the old one). I don't know why I keep doing this to myself.

Y'all, Ted Lasso is doing my heart and mind some real good right now.

So I complained about it being warm enough to rain, and Mother Nature took that personally. And now I'm debating how to warm up my basement because it's fucking cold down here.

Today is December 18th. Normal low temperatures for December in central Iowa are between 0 and 20. It's been raining last night and this morning because it's 40 degrees before sunrise. What the actual fuck.

Hey. You. Yeah, you know who I'm talking to. Stop trying to come up with solutions without understanding the problem space. Slow the fuck down and look at the situation before trying to write 10 different ways to fix it that don't actually address the cause of what needs fixed.

3AM is a spectacular time to mentally spiral over something, I tell you what.

Oh boy! They confirmed that I have sleep apnea! How exciting!

There is a voice in my head screaming about the start and end of a D&D campaign, and a framework for the middle that actually requires having a clear plan because of a timeline of events, and damn do I want to get it out on paper.

I have found out the hard way that the Unifi U7 Pro AP is really, absurdly big. So big and heavy that it mounts to a metal plate instead of the older plastic mount. Guess that's a project for a day when I feel more willing to mess up my ceiling.
December 13, 2025 at 7:45 PM
New switch set up, 2 new access points set up. There's still the hard one on the ceiling, but I'm making progress!

My body shouldn't hurt from sitting on the floor though. It does. But it shouldn't.
December 13, 2025 at 7:03 PM
Doing all the stuff and things. Also, cursing past-me for putting a wireless access point *behind* my TV stand so it's a bitch to get to.
December 13, 2025 at 5:38 PM
Took yesterday off work to play video games all day, with the plan to work on stuff around the house today and tomorrow, and then slept like absolute garbage. Now I don't want to do anything.
December 13, 2025 at 1:27 PM
Okay, Paladin in D4 slaps. I flat out don't understand how to build it properly so far, but somehow I'm having fun.

Flute guy played what, 7 different instruments this time? What a fucking legend.

I guess this technically, maybe, proves that Pragmata isn't actually a Mega Man game.

Unless it is.
Holy shit, new Mega Man.
