Everspace is fun but I worry that there’s only three digits for the number of times I’ve died. I know how I am with twitch games.

We’re gonna need more digits.

Followup: Decided Trello’s price wasn’t right for my limited needs. A separate informal task board for each week. That’s all I want.

Notion has equivalent functionality — and they already have some of my money — and can import from Trello — so:

@lordbowlich I’ve heard it proposed half-jokingly, but really. Time for meetings is time taken out of your work. It needs to be factored in, and one way would be a ticket for every meeting.

You can create them automatically if you like: a calendar hook or something. But they should be on the board.

Loud Dog’s being quiet, so of course I just checked to make sure she’s breathing.

She is breathing BTW. Just sleeping.

Bill & Ted Face The Music was thematically consistent with the earlier movies and I feel it does a great job of answering the question of how Gen-X’s premier proxies could save much of anything, let alone the universe.

I mean it’s not Great Art or anything but neither were the others. It doesn’t have to be.
