The kid is reading our Calvin and Hobbes books and got to this strip, whereupon he asked me to explain the last panel. Because people (well, this household anyway) don't have thermometers hanging outside their windows anymore. We just have phones.

Ok, beat Lace and found the next boss in Silksong, but knowing what I know about HK, there's no way this is the _last_ boss. But instead I went a-wandering and found a whole-assed new zone. So that feels like the more pressing task.

You know, setting my streaming station to seed off Orbital is bringing up some tunes that I haven't heard in 20 years but absolutely remember. Did not expect that.

Ahh that wonderful time of year where it's 2pm but it feels like 6:30pm. End DST, please, because this "lying to ourselves for over half the year" bullshit is stupid.

The amount of AI generated art in slides at this conference, primarily used by older scientists, is killing me. Scientists please. Don’t use these ai platforms to make your figures or slides. They look bad and I have yet to see them meaningfully improve the message of talks.

That moment in Silksong when you finish a days long fight-die-runback cycle and make it past a plot point only to get absolutely bodied by a boss fight.

So the cold comfort is this: They're not novel, and they're not going to get what they want, either. The wheels will absolutely come off this wagon — probably sooner than later, and probably on fire. But unfortunately, *we're in the wagon*. (5/5)
