    also my favourite video of shanty singing, Statsraad Lehmkuhl returning to Bergen after three months at sea

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8s_Z13jEeo

    edit: the shanty is (based on) "South Australia"

    edit2: also at that moment, KNM Statsraad Lehmkuhl, rather, as that's the navy manning the yards. They use her as a school ship ever now and then. Hence the split flag, the orlogsflagg, on it, rather than the regular norwegian flag.

    anyway good morning, I finally slept until actual morning

    there was a brief moment of being in the pits of despair, because I thought there was coffee left and then I saw it wasn't

    but now the pots boiling and I'm listening to shanties and this could be a decent day after all

    I'm considering making a bracket of all of the husbandos on gbbo and determining who is the primo bakeoff boyfriend

    there are a lot of contenders

    @Casual Eddy off the top of my head without looking at a list of contestants, the medical student. Tamal? He was so charming and very handsome and good at baking.

    Starting to think that the Switch has poor controller responsiveness.

    Definitely running out of games worth playing on the thing.

    I possibly got the covid (source unknown) but I am mostly asymptomatic. Won't know until a test tomorrow at 3:00pm.

    God I hope it's negative I need to be able to go outside again. Maybe get a carton of milk.

    True, though I burned out on that months ago. I think this is going to become my bulk as hell DS and little else. It just seems to not be responsive enough for me to enjoy games with tight activation windows.

    A-OK for turn-based, but I struggle to find the right turn-based games.

    May just become my Ring Fit Machine and nothing else.

    I found an ancient can of evaporated milk and mixed it with water to the right concentration and it tastes like absolute shit. It is truly stunning the degree to which doing this did not create milk.

    I know you aren't allowed to switch out balls, can you switch out bats?

    Not unless they get broken. And you can switch out balls after 90 overs. Or 80 overs, can't remember right off the top of my head when the new ball gets offered.

    I haven't tried that since I was like 9 in our fridge-less boat, wanting some damn cereal. It left a permanent mark. Scar tissue of the soul.



    also I had spent most of the week before quarantine doing nothing at home but the instant I was told I couldn't leave I wanted to get out, which made me understand why cats cry to get you to open a door for no other reason than to have it open, I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you're feeling something similar

    I am annoyed that the hitman 2 expansion pass with the two levels I haven't played is 40 dollars

    Apparently it goes on sale down to ten or even cheaper, but it's not on sale now which is when I want to buy it. Curses. Hopefully with 3 coming out next week it'll go on sale somewhere soon.

    it's gotten cold in norway, and thus, the ever traditional news articles about people getting busted for doing a shit job of scraping their windows

    or in this case, not touching it, figuring that the air will get it eventually

    which cost the driver 8000 kr and the right to drive for three months.


    some people look forward to winter and being bundled up with a mug of hot chocolate. I look forward to this.

    Back when i was still driving a full size van the heater went out in the dead of winter. The most recent event in a series of parts dying in that van.

    I couldn’t defrost my windshield so I bought a can of de-icer and would periodically spray it on the windshield from inside the vehicle, while I was driving

    How did I do this? Did I perhaps roll the window down and reach out? Of course not, that would be too easy. Besides, the windows didn’t roll down because after their electric motors died I rigged the windows so they stayed up no matter what.

    So how to reach out? Well, vehicles of a certain vintage came with little triangular windows in front of the regular windows, that could be flipped open on a central pivot point.

    So here I was, in below freezing temperatures, spraying chemicals onto my windshield through the little batwing windows so I could see the road ahead.

    Yeah that lasted a week or two before I finally bit the bullet and went to go buy a new car.

    My brain is all out of focus tonight.

    Training at work is feeling good and giving me good ideas.

    My exceptionally unusual skill set is letting me blow minds using information I picked up from a community college electiive I took decades ago.

    Got a new game idea I'm musing about.

    Gearing up to do some more writing this weekend.

    Day started with lots of happiness around one grandma and then found out the other grandma died, but I'm mostly mad at my sister's in-laws for some other thing.

    Really glad I have a three day weekend ahead to refocus.
