Radu… that’s inexplicable. Big hole for us to dig this out.

I do think there was more in that Son penalty shout than the commentators.

102m50s on the clock. I kept a stopwatch, 06m39s the ball was not in play for 10’ of stoppage. When are we scheduled to finish the remaining four minutes of stoppage?

Good effort, we turned things around and made them dig deeper than any expected to dispatch us. #COYS

Encouraging little moment from Spence, recognizing the pressure being put on the left side, stepping up into space in the central circle to offer a passing option and switch play.

Spurs’ defensive players being asked to play a smorgasbord of roles and trying their best.

Keep up the fight! #COYS

I wonder what the highest number of missed/forgiven handball calls in a single match stands at. Andrew Madley gunning for the record.

I have this firmly in the “never ever going to happen” category but I’d love to see Mohammed Kudus at Spurs. The body control and strength of Deki with the dribbling technique better than any of the current squad. He’s always an engaging watch. #COYS

Forster simply cannot allow it in from that angle, that’s unforgivable. Spurs have to now flip on the attacking switch because they’ve been trying out “defend the lead pragmatism” for the last 15 minutes and it’s been ugly.

I hope Cunha is alright but I won’t complain too much that he won’t get to continue his fine form against Spurs in the second half. #COYS

Pawson needs investigating. One of the least competent ref performances I’ve seen.

At the same time, we have to do better to overcome that disadvantage. Move on, Spurs, Ange In fully. #COYS

What’s strangest about Salah having 2 goals and 2 assists is that I was impressed overall by Djed Spence’s on that side. Very tough circumstances but Ange Fully In, we’ll come good, COYS!

Big shoutout to Tim Howard for being the worst pundit btw. Boring, inarticulate, and amateur analysis.

ReguilON? Wow, welcome to the show. #coys

Hadn’t realized that Deki is making his 100th PL appearance. What an incredible signing, easily been our best player of the season and he cost all of just €30m?! #COYS

Been interesting (and a hurdle) to switch game engine loyalties for game dev to Godot. But I’m getting to the point soon where I’ll be comfortable to resume coding! Been occupying time with more sketching and game planning while the production took a backseat.

Committing to making and publishing a game every 12 weeks in 2024. Perfectionism be damned. Domino effect the skills learned in each cycle into the next. Super excited to share updates and progress!

I was mildly playing with the idea of learning Unity before all of this insanity. Cut my teeth using GameMaker but wanting to expand my engine familiarity with one of the open source options like Godot or FNA. Need to determine which has a friendly GUI like GameMaker.

Excellent, library hold pickup notice for Rules of Play, the game design book that got me to really start thinking about picking up gamedev. Will be interesting to review and compare to the rest of what I’ve learned since.

@neilhimself.neilgaiman.com I had the most unlucky time watching the s2 finale of Good Omens last night. Literally got to the juncture of Az having to make his big decision and then… internet outage! Work’s over and internet is restored, time to resolve this Inception-esque cliffhanger.

It’s got to be a bit telling when, despite my relative financial security, I still count a haircut as a superfluous expense.

Finished Harrow the Ninth this evening and nearly spoiled myself by not understanding that a third book had already been released in the series. What was intended to be a trilogy got an unexpected addition. I was eager to jump into the subreddit and have Harrow’s wild ending unraveled for me!
