anxiety, low phone battery %, transportation concerns
taking apart flatpack furniture has never been as scary for us as it was last night at 1:45am with our phone's battery at 1% and us still needing an Uber ride as our only way to get home with the large pile of parts

design talk though: I love that the Myst games use careful exploration and observation of your surroundings as their most core loop - you encounter puzzles through it, you find clues for them through it, and your reward for solving puzzles is normally access to new places to explore

dream logging, full on Nazi edition
Had a very long dream with multiple interwoven threads from the past and present. Mostly they focused around an event from an unspecified war and ethnic cleansing.

When designing a user interface, imagine some old woman using it, say Margaret Hamilton, and she's clicking your app's buttons and saying to you, as old people do,
"Young whippersnapper, when I was your age, I sent 24 people to the ACTUAL MOON with my software in 4K of RAM and here I am clicking your button and it takes ten seconds to load a 50 megabyte video ad and then it crashes
I'm not even ANGRY with you, I'm just disappointed."

"Surprise!"
"Is that..? OH MY COD IT'S A WATERPROOF E-BOOK!"
"I hope you like the books I loaded on there for you..."
She couldn't hear me over her broad translucent fins slapping the sand & surf excitedly.
"I can finally read in bed! Oh oh I can finally join a book club!"
"Uh, I dunno if there's any beach-side ones here..."
"My girlfriend will just have to start one, then."
"I'll look into it tonight, love."
"Yay!"
