"Vs. Susie" on loop is my entire internal soundtrack for today

But at least I haven't broken anything
Yet

I have a piece of code that, because the way the program is structured, the only way to add certain outputs is to copy-paste about a screenful of code and every time I do it, I add another ":(" to its comment.

I'm up to ":( :( :( :( :( :(" and I think I need booze now

@ArrBianca awwwwwww you know you wanna ruin a toaster oven!

Honestly surprised that I've seen absolutely zero fanart of Clover from DR so far.

They seemed neat.

Ugh, I had to go full "I AM THE DOMINANT CAT" mode on Runt today because he peed all over himself at the vet but was swiping and biting when I tried to clean him.

And it's like, I get it buddy, but I have to work to keep feeding us, and I can't leave you alone covered in urine.

It me

Today's mood, as my now urine-soaked cat tries to pee all over the vet:

hmm, I'm probably gonna give things another day or so before I start RTing DELTARUNE fanart. And even then, I'm gonna try to stick to low context stuff that doesn't touch on too much plot.

But I've seen a lot of really great work already, it's hard not to share.

@ArrBianca good excuse to learn how to do reflow soldering?

Me: I feel *AWFUL*

Body: You've eaten nothing but hot dogs for dinner for the last four days

Me: I was *EXPERIMENTING* with them

Body: OH MY GOD EAT A REAL FOOD OKAY

(this is the third time this year, so like, it's probably just gonna be an infection like the last two times, we'll throw kitty antibiotics at it - we've done this dance before. But it still means I need to take time out of work to go do that, etc)

jesus fuck my cat is peeing blood again

I really need this to stopppppp

This nerd

Also, don't say "Reddit" - Reddit is just another monolithic network with slightly more dileniation between interest groups. But it's also a cesspool of terrible people who will never be moderated, and I refuse to join any Reddit community founded on $VIDEO_GAME because… reddit

Anyway, what I'm getting at is that maybe the idea of a single monolithic networks fundamentally flawed, and there's value in different formats formed around specific interests and smaller subcommunities, tied together by a larger, general purpose public network?

And again, this wasn't spoilers! Nobody was being impolite! Just a side
effect of a subset of people getting excited at the same time on a medium where literally everything is public and blasted into everyone else's feed without any design considerstions for context or content

This goes for like, Smash too.
I absolutely don't begrudge anyone getting excited about it and tweeting (we're cool), but even my shortlist timeline was flooded with literally hundreds of smash tweets today.

I already struggle to keep up, and it really tanked my snr

And okay, it was never quite as clean as that, but for this specific kind of thing, it's orders of magnitude better than "literally everything you want to say is on a public timeline and everyone you know will be spoiled" and just hoping they have keyword mutes or something

Friend's tweet got me thinking how on old community forums, we'd probably be discussing DELTARUNE right now without a lot of the spoiler issues we have with public timelines.

Like, you'd make or join the clearly labelled "DELTARUNE discussion thread" or avoid it to skip spoilers
