Managed to get it through the entire install process, it said it was done and restarted after like two hours, and then I came back to this
We couldn't install Windows 11

Well. I've tried it twice and this is the result both times. So glad they're ending support of the one that actually works today.

Disappointed that Sonic Blitz is using the proportions from Johnny's chibi in-game DS model instead of the ones from his official art
Chibi Johnny. Goofy. A lil guy. Actual Johnny. Bigger. Kinda threatening.

I don't think Etsy is very good at letting people know, but if you buy all three of my books together, you get 20% off

Having to talk to an AI chatbot for a job interview, and I love that it doesn't even seem to know how it works
Tip: You can use speech to text to respond. How?

Batman Begins #art
A little boy falls in the mud. He lays in it looking sad. A shadow falls over him and a hand reaches out to him. The person reaching out, silhouetted against the sky, says "Why do we fall, Master Bruce?" The boy responds "Because you keep pushing me, Alfred!"

Was briefly excited for this until my brother, who's a big Lego fan, explained to me why it's going to be impossible for me to actually get one thanks to Lego's shitty VIP gift-only system. I love Lego, but they keep reminding me they're an asshole company who hate customers.

I mentioned yesterday on stream that I wore a sailor outfit a lot when I was a kid. This is the only picture I have of it.

These are really stupid. I don't think they're inaccurate, they're just stupid
34:14 I'm not a cat person. Well, I like cats. When you die, they're all going to eat you. I like cats, but I like dogs more. 34:21 You don't have to choose. You're allowed to like both. I want to choose. Mel, you're you're 34:27 misunderstanding. I'm choosing to choose. Well, then that's a character flaw. 34:32 You're a character flaw. Yeah, I'm your character flaw.

I looked at Youtube's auto-transcript of our last podcast episode
3:53 Oh, no. I forget which one that was. Yeah. No, I don't know either, but just 3:59 the fact that it's the Super Mario Brothers 3 show doesn't bode well. It's the last one we watched where she got 4:06 turned into a human and then Luigi got turned into a sexy Koopa man, right? Where Luigi went to smooch town 4:13 all over her. Yeah. Yeah. Weird. Yeah. And her head came off that one time. 4:19 Her head did come off, but I can't I don't think we can blame that on on Doug. No, he probably didn't write that.
