ahhhhh that makes sense ty!

Related, I found this cheatsheet in the docs: raw.githubusercontent.com/godotengine/...

I thought I might need the reverse mapping (Color to nice-name) for a Log\.gd feature today, but `Color.to_html(false)` was enough b/c bbcode supports [color=hex] tags.

I didn't realize that gif was 75mb (!!) so here's a 5x-ed mp4 version (only 8mb now).

I also released the latest version (1.2.0) in all-the-places! But there are too many to list, so now I'm writing an all-the-places page for the website/docs. Will share that once all the release notes are in place.

I just do not care about defending why this is not their fault. It truly does not matter if their hands were completely tied and their motives as pure as driven snow. It is not viable to sell things on a platform that could take all your money at any moment without notice.

It's definitely looking more and more like a candy store these days!

I've been eyeing the fgcolor/bgcolor tags as well....... but that's crazy, right?

lmao at how unreadable this is, on top of being the most difficult puzzle in the game right now

this one was generated to be hard, which his why it's in the 'extras' section... tho i'm not sure who i'm protecting.... i guess, wandering grid-puzzle nerd-snipes?

I reread a bunch of my writing from around that time this weekend (while pulling things from Medium and into my blog) - kind of surprising how many of them referenced me being hungry or otherwise eating poorly. I think I might have been kind of an idiot... hopefully that's different now?
