Los Angeles 2025

🫩

As a public service announcement, do not lick trains, thank you.

Today was a "sending 10 emails to collect information so I can actually do shit" kind of day 🫩

πŸŽ™οΈ Rain, rain, go away

πŸŽ™οΈ Grass grass, I'm touching grass.

Another Summer Game Fast where @geoffkeighley.bsky.social and @valvesoftware.com didn't announce Ricochet 2. Guess we'll always have next year πŸ˜”

20 bottles of ginger beer. This would have been €50 here, yet it only cost me €32 in Germany. Danke Rewe Kranenburg <3

My brain did the thing and I've now got a detailed plan on how to set up my new desk while keeping height clearances, future drawer expansions and repositioning in mind. I even got a label maker to label the shit out of all those cables in case I ever need to take one out or troubleshoot a device.

New height adjustable desk frame came in today. Will get longer cables and fancy monitor stands on Saturday. I'm already dreading how much work the setup is going to be πŸ₯²

BABY! It's weird how we went from no new Godzilla Little merch to two new Godzilla Little merch items in a single month. Please let there be a third baby release inbound πŸ₯ΊπŸ‘‰πŸ‘ˆ

Jellyfin truly be the goat. That's all.

Rudely awakened by my plant grow lights which turn on and off on a timer. As of a sleepless night and finally falling asleep at 10:00 wasn't enough torture for one day 🫩

Emptied out my wardrobe, got 3 shopping bags full of clothes that I no longer fit, haven't worn in years or are completely done for. I even found a box of vacuum clothes bags which is funny, because I had literally ordered a box of new vacuum bags for this session.

Plant: I'll flower and die to reproduce if I'm unhappy and not taken proper care of. Also plant: I'll flower and die to reproduce if I'm happy and taken proper care of. Gotta love a plant that requires a careful balance of care and neglect. It's like I'm raising Mothra πŸ™ƒ

You know, those cheap (€100 barebones) Intel n150 based NUCs are actually pretty cool. I was expecting terrible performance, but so far it handles Windows 11 and everyday tasks like a champ. It even runs older 3D titles just fine at 1080p. Low-key might buy myself a second as a HTPC+emulation rig...

My infinity bottle never fails to put a smile on my face. I mean, it definitely is derivative to blend all your last bits of single malt whisky together, no? 😬 Anyway, time to bake a steak.

Fuck it, decided to be kind to future me and modded my new mobile air conditioner before I'm melting in agony. Time for stress testing, making sure the device stays cool enough with the added intake hose and eventually turning the cardboard cover into a proper PVC+ASA cover.

Five six seven eight, yesterday I stayed up too late!

Courier did brrrrrrr and so does my new air conditioner. 10500BTU just wasn't enough to keep my room cool, so let's hope 14000BTU is. Next step: modding this unit with an intake hose to make it at least 50% more efficient and we'll be ret-2-go for yet another moist warm Dutch summer.

Got to say, I feel ashamed seeing so many Dutch people shopping in Germany and getting angry they don't speak Dutch. Is it really that hard to say "mit Karte bitte"?! Ich weiße das mein Deutsch slecht ist, aber ich versuche es zumindest... Kutgerda, ik hoop dat je stikt in je goedkope shag 😀

Allegheny Center. East North Ave. Caller reported that a tree containing a beehive has fallen. The bees in the area are now really mad.

I bought 6 different brands of ginger beer to try on a whim. Diabetes, here I come!

Fuck yes, best girl Misato and Evangelion's most emotionally stable character PenPen Nendoroid have arrived πŸŽ‰

This weekend is Animecon and it's the first time since 08 that I'm not going. No promo stand means there will hardly be anything fulfilling for old "seen and done it all" me to do and the 3 hour door to door travel and €54 day ticket price was the final nail in the coffin.

I cleaned, depression nest is no more!

Also the Misato Nendoroid I had pre-ordered over a year ago will finally arrive sometime next week. She even comes with a little PenPen πŸ₯Ί

Went to Nijmegen for Kings Day, got over 18000 steps in, treated the new dogs to a new leash and walking harness, went on multiple walkies with them and now I'm beyond tired. Tomorrow I'm just gonna turn my phone off and play Oblivion all day, as one should.

LET'S GOOOOOO! OBLIVION REMASTERED!
