At my previous home it was a huge headache to get delivery because there was a home with the same number on a similar sounding street nearby. My new home should have no problem with delivery but the costs are so high. I can't justify delivery when I can drive. Is this being an adult?

Somebody asked me on Reddit why people who use AI to generate Recomp projects are currently being rejected from the communities and what they can do to fix this. I might tweak parts of this to be a more general blog post at some point, but this should be of help to anyone in a similar situation.

I'm watching my parents' dog while they travel and she was going in to get groomed today. She made it 20 minutes before she was screaming at the groomer and had to be picked up. At least the groomer didn't charge me since they could only shampoo

Corn salad follow through! I've spent years unable to seriously use my kitchen because of a shitty roommate. Getting back into safely cooking with some easy chopping and vibes based measuring. It's pretty good, I think I'd swap the mayo for some other sauce base though. It's an unsettling purple.

Photo of a kitchen counter with food on it. The counter is a white marble with light brown streaks. Two bottles in the top left corner with dark liquid in both, one is partially empty. The left is olive oil, the right is balsamic vinegar. There are two tupperware containers, one rectangular, one circular, and a bowl that all contain corn salad. The corn salad is primarily yellow with specking of dark brown, orange, and purple. To the right of the corn salad is a bag of Mission brand tortilla chips. Behind the chips is a navy blue ceramic jar and a water dispenser.

Turns out prescription dogfood comes in multiple strengths so I had to drive back to PetSmart and return the food I bought to buy new food. Since I was out again I turned it into a grocery trip too. Picked up the stuff for a corn salad. Hopefully it'll be a nice snack for the next few days.

I would like to care about Magic again but two things continue to stop me. First I'm exhausted of all the collaborations/cross-overs. Second I would be playing on MTG: Arena and only want to play bots, but Sparky sucks and I doubt that has changed since I last played.

I'm glad to have wrapped up my FFX playthrough but now the post-JRPG emptiness has hit. I've got several games that might fill the hole but picking is *hard*. I've been sitting on Breath of Fire 4 since it came to steam, I could always actually spend some time with FFX-2 but Sea of Stars and FF8 too

I've collected every aeon, and maxed out 4/7 celestial weapons. I think I'm ready to bring my playthrough to a close. Tomorrow's project. I think it helped me put some feelings together about how I've only been able to share gaming with some people I care about and how much that means to me.

Because the landlords are cowards their realtor has been on every exchange and came up with this bullshit. I moved out early because they wanted to show the house, so I told them I'd be leaving things that I could have handled, they said that was fine. And they did get paid, rent for 4 years.

My old landlords are trying to milk me for more money. Just had to shoot them another email calling out the weirdness of claiming 6k in repairs and only being able to account for maybe 1.2k of it. And now the adrenaline is too high and I can't get to sleep.
