I hope everyone has a quiet and productive day.

“Just because it’s not understandable doesn’t mean it’s god.” #writing

There should be a standard for exporting annotations and notes from devices. And a way to centralize everything you export.

Plan for tomorrow: — iOS — editing “Out of Time” — research — free-writing — other stuff as time permits.

We spend more time listening to other people’s opinions than thinking for our selves. #life #failure

Marketing just makes stufff up.

Time to switch it up. An Esrerbrook I restored (F) w/ Iroshizuko Amo Iro #fountainpen

Time to switch gears again.

Now I need to figure out how to get to book 4. All my previous plans are out the window for this series. Book 1’s first draft is done—and works. I’m planning 2. Now I need to lay some groundwork/foreshadow 4 somehow. #writing #planning

Ugh. I just have the title/idea for the 4th book in my “Coins of Destiny” series that I’m working on. …and I’m still planning book two.

I need a vacation. One without social media, writing, programming, and its ilk.

“My AI can beat your AI.”

What if Swift/SwiftUI were a visual/component language instead of the arcane/obtuse syntax it has? What if it was a template-based language such as Dylan and NewtonScript? #programming #swift

The reason they’re called hyperlinks is they excite you.

It shouldn’t be called a “browser”. It should be called a “grazer” since you spend more time grazing than gathering real information.

I’ve been thinking about what stats and how I could track them in my game idea. I should post. #gamedev #scryinggame

Yes, I know I have a weird and sometimes macabre sense of humor. What’s your problem?

Anyone actually use/write a commonplace book?

“How To Remove Bubbles From Your IV Tube When You Are Dying”. I’m in a weird(er) mood today.

Couple of pages written. Time to eat something edible.

I tried to entice Oreo, one of The Gathering, into a carrier to go to the vet. It was not enticed by the food. I ended up with some puncture wounds for the effort. Ferals will be ferals. #cat
