My name is Benjamin, and I am a musician, raconteur, roustabout, and public policy interloper. (They/Them)🏳️‍🌈🩷💛💙 You can find my various other things using linktr.ee/rasgueado or on fedi (@rasgueado@mstdn.games).

I had forgotten just how hard iRacing goes with setting up their events for players. I am not a great race driver, but it has been a thing I've enjoyed going back to every few months to improve. 48 pages of code... dang!

This is another periodic reminder for folks out there struggling with self-worth that you are, in fact, worth it. It can be hard to feel like it in a vacuum when it seems like there's no one else around to provide some of the feedback we need to feel that. 🧵

I know I can be a bit cynical. When I look at a youtube feed and see a large channel like this uploading a "new" clip 2 days ago featuring Sam Neil this just feels... icky to me. Gotta get those clicks I guess eh JoBlo? 😡

And after two weeks… I am home. Loads of interesting travel problems that popped up along the way, but it’s good to be home. I do always like seeing my family, but it is equally refreshing to have my own space back again.

Leave it to M$ to fail at seeing a pathway to sustainable business out of id software. I’m just reading about this, so I’m not sure how the Bethesda relationship works anymore and if this was Bethesda making these calls for what to do to meet a target to handed to them or not.

Yes… the day I’m leaving for the woods for three days is the perfect day for a massive headache. >.< Been awhile since I’ve been overnight in the Alberta rockies, but I’m looking forward to it. Spent a lot of time out there growing up.

Nothing remotely on theme for today, but I’m out of town for another week and I’ll be in the woods for most of next week. Want to get my head back on track, and getting two of these up a month. Have a great morning folks!

Gosh… it’s almost like people aren’t buying enough of the brand new things, and Sony wants you spending money only on the new things it is putting into the current storefront. Added benefit of cutting cost of support.

Two weeks away from home to visit family. Might just be the little jolt to the system I need to help knock some stuff loose. I'd like to say I'll be more back to normal, socializing, and streaming again when I get back. It's also been 3 months of this so... we'll see?
