Australian, they/them.
My temperature thingy says it's fifteen degrees (Celsius) hotter outside than it is in here. I think it might be in the sun.

Still playing through the first Final Fantasy, and I got the halfway point class upgrades. The upgraded versions of the classes are drawn in a different art style, and it took some getting used to.

Who are you people

Went out for a walk earlier and it was raining a little, even though it was quite sunny. First thought: "Oh, a sunshower!". Second thought: "One part of the US has a really weird name for this."

I got a spam fanfic comment where the bot actually described the image they claimed they were inspired to create if I'd just pay them some money. The phrase "their expressions a mix of determination and mild exasperation" was included. This is art already, no need to AI a picture.

It's too waaaaaarm today. But yesterday I heard clicky bugs, screamy bugs, and... the generic ones. Greengrocers, I think. So the cicadas are at least enjoying it.

Why'd my tinnitus get so loud. Is that a symptom? I was doing ear training and now it's harder to hear the notes. Very rude, whatever symptom you are.

My dark work... it is at last complete...

(What I actually mean is that I finished the main edit of the fanfic I've been working on for the past year. I think this new medication is actually helping!)

Water's gone with no warning, how super fun.

Playing Final Fantasy I, and I didn't know there'd be spell slots. That's pretty weird compared to the later games.

I've made so many climate and height maps. Most of them are smaller, though. I just wanted to see more detail.

Hey look at this relative altitude map I generated! The pixels are lighter or darker depending on the heights of the surrounding pixels. I think it looks pretty cool, but also it's 10MB and I don't really know how image uploads work on Bluesky.

Finally managed to get on some mast cell stabilisers! I'd thought that wasn't even an option here because I didn't understand how compounding worked. So far I'm kind of hungry and tired.

I hope the denouement to this story will be easier to edit and need less rewrites than the climax. It should. I just need to be coherent for long enough to get through it.

Seems like I can program basically indefinitely even when I feel too bad or tired to do anything, which is interesting.

Also the chess thing I was doing to learn GameMaker now has checkers, xiangqi, shogi, and a game I made up. Unrelatedly.

Nobody wanted AI to write and read their emails. They just wanted to generate a courtroom sketch of Mr. Bean and Sonic The Hedgehog

Ugh my stomach hurts and I can't do anything about it. I'm glad I can at least tell for once.

Photobucket has switched from threatening emails about how they'll delete my old images if I don't pay them $5 to a "but don't you want to see your old memories? 🥺" strategy.

I'm making Chess on GameMaker so I can learn GameMaker and get things on the screen faster, but I got distracted after adding pawn promotion and now I'm trying to arrange eight queens on the chessboard so they aren't in each other's way.

That's because LLMs can't "summarise" text. They can "lossy compress text" and sometimes that's similar, but it is not a summary.

Actually feeling a bit more aware than I usually do. I hope that keeps up!
