Got Hyrule Warriors a day early. Managed to feed the Zelda nostalgia a bit since Tears.

Having written a 520-page rulebook, I now struggle with whether I should make a thorough index with "everything" or a more streamlined index with "only the most relevant things." I like the former, but it adds another 20 pages to the book.

Noticed that YouTube had flagged a comment on my latest video that was a very visceral and unhinged reaction to the fact that I had mentioned consulting people with disabilities when writing cybernetics for my game. Such a strange thing to be so angry about, but it seems I really ruined his day. Hah

Why didn't life evolve on a planet with 36 hour days? There is so much I wish I had time for.

When looking back at my adult life, I can see a lot of patterns of apathy despite being fairly high functioning. I have a career, friends, family, am highly productive when it comes to personal passions, but failed at taking care of myself or my space. Once I started to look, I assumed dystymia.

I've wanted to improve and diversify my cooking, so the last couple of weeks I've been randomizing recipes. It's a fun challenge and it keeps me from being lazy and making things easy.

After 30 years of running ttrpgs, I've done all the classic mistakes. but I think one of the best lessons I learned was to stop overprepping. I got together with a friend and did regular fully improvised solo sessions few years ago. Was really helpful to get over that threshold.
