I bet this discourse over pineapples on pizza from the last few years is just a distraction manufactured by anchovy lovers to take the heat off them.

Me: "hey, brain, can you grab a memory for me? This guy I'm talking to on the phone. What was his name again?"
My brain: "ooh... sorry... best I can do is pull up this memory from 13 years ago when you said 'ice cream' when you meant to say 'frozen yogurt' wasn't that pretty embarassing?"

I did a game design this weekend.
Been way too long since I made something small and complete.
It feels good to finish a small project now and again.

Found my copy of house of leaves!
I love this book, it's the only book I've read that really uses the medium.
You couldn't make House of Leaves as anything other than a book.

Had some Chili Dogs and watched Sonic 3 yesterday.

Been wanting to upgrade my video card lately but then I remembered I have the founders edition level of GeForce Now.
Tried it out yesterday and it works way better than at launch. So I can just play all my new games at absolute max settings without having to worry about my hardware.

Haven't done a game jam in a while and my brain is telling me it's because I'm lazy.
Nevermind the fact that I've been writing game sessions for Vampire, writing an entirely new LARP rulebook, and working on professional development like crazy.
