colors, shapes, and a gravel driveway

So here we are, up at brother's place for pre-Thanksgiving. I’m pleased to announce the little tabletop Christmas tree is back. That guy has been on display like three-quarters of the year. I respect it. BB's new favorite thing is to turn on the dance music on his Bluey microphone and simultaneously...

get down mr. president

Putting this predix on the table NOW: We’ve never seen Metem and the Arcadion president in the same room at the same time. THEY ARE THE SAME CHARACTER. BOOK IT. Last weekend, the loot cap for the tier was removed, and we decided to try and blow through all our Brute Abombinator reclears at once. We ...

eating chowder with a fork

It was an ugly, cold fall day with not a hint of blue in the sky, and I was in the mood for soup. So I went to Tomo's Market for lunch. The food there is served cafeteria-style; you get whatever you want and pay by weight. I got a bowl of corn chowder alongside my usual mac & cheese and some oth...

thanksgiving cards & retrospective on dragontober

Last Tuesday I noticed they already set up the big Christmas tree across from the train station. Bros, please. It’s not Thanksgiving yet. Have some class. This weekend I’m heading to a pre-Thanksgiving family get-together (since people are visiting other family for Thanksgiving). I made watercolor T...

whoa! eet noey

The weather is wack. On Friday it was 62 degrees (78 degrees in our non-air-conditioned house). On Saturday the temperature plummeted. Woke up Sunday morning to snow on the ground, more snow falling, and a winter storm warning on my phone. Got an email from Noah saying not to come in on Monday and w...

the true power of this monstrous fusion

Over the past few weeks, HGR has become increasingly bearish about our prospects for this tier. He predicted we wouldn’t beat the Brute Abombinator before January. He didn’t think we had the damage. We aren’t exactly a cutting-edge dps squad, as the Sugar Riot saga demonstrated. Also, KJH’s computer...

daily jumble

A mess of assorted thoughts:My daylight savings buff has completely worn off. I woke up around 8:45 today, which is a totally normal time for me to wake, but it didn’t feel like sleeping in. It just felt like morning.Time is sliding sideways for me. Is it Thursday or Friday? (It’s Thursday, but I ha...

#tree

Lately I’ve been making an effort to look at trees. Typically, I appreciate trees in a general sense: enjoying fall colors, picking BB up to show him acorns hanging from a branch, seeing a willow tree and reminiscing about the tree at my old home. But I don’t really observe trees. What do they look ...

soft uwu deathlord

HGR was asking me, what’s the appeal of the lion game? I told him it’s a jank, mechanically inferior version of the wolf game. But it’s got lots of aesthetic options! And, most importantly, I can play casually without having to worry about the leaderboards. Couldn’t you do that with the wolf game? h...

heat hoarders

We made it through the heat. Monday night was particularly cursed, since it was raining and we had to close the balcony screen door. We were stuck in an intensely humid 88-degree house, with cool fall air just outside where we couldn’t reach it. But the rain cooled things down. It’s been mid-60s dur...

double hobby

Weirdly, watercoloring has become two hobbies for me. The first is actually watercoloring. The second is watching watercolor tutorial videos on youtube. It’s a relaxing thing to do in the evening when trying to make step count for the day. Most of these videos are plant-related: fall trees, pumpkins...

THE SUN THE SUN THE SUN TH

On Saturday afternoon, the temperature in the house rose to 91 degrees. It’s not conducive to human flourishing. We didn’t have raid (KJH’s computer broke, rip) which is just as well because who wants to deal with lariats and tethers in this kind of heat? As predicted, roommate did not want to leave...
