Apparently doordash can't deliver my fast food order. 90 minutes and counting. For some burgers. It's likely to be freezing by the time it gets here, if it gets here at all.

I've been meaning to dive into Godot. Python is my language of choice, and GDScript is similar, so it shouldn't be too much of a chore.

I coded a map editor that uses existing map images as a base.
It auto-syncs the map key to a markdown document in real-time, meaning you can write the content in external editors easily, while still seeing the spatial relations of the rooms!

Exciting news! Weβre thrilled to announce that tapir Yuna gave birth to a rare and endangered Malayan tapir calf Sunday night. The newborn, covered in distinctive white spots and stripes resembling a fuzzy walking watermelon, is only the second tapir born in our 120-year history.

Just a reminder to all the new folks that Neil Gaiman has been credibly accused of sexual assault by five different women, and is almost certainly working behind the scenes with his PR firm to bury the story.

I haven't picked up Demon the Fallen because I'm not sure how it'll fit with the Mage chronicle I'm about to start up, but it does fascinate me for sure. If you had to give a reason, what do you think makes you obsess over it?
