So, I see a lot of women wearing wool sweaters. It’s 83º and brutally humid today. I hope they work in an A/C environment. Yes, I do realize women feel the cold more than men.

No, I won’t be joining Threads, or BlueSky. I don’t feel the need to contribute to megalomaniacs with tons of money. You can find me on Micro.blog and Mastodon. That’s enough for me. #social

I was actually able to use XCode today without it regurgitating a cryptic error message. Of course, it spent a literal half hour rebuilding the cache in my iPhone, for reasons unknown. #xcode #failure

Be the hero in your life. #life #success

I should blog something today.

Just because you’ve paid for something doesn’t mean you’ve created or invented what you bought.

Hail! It’s Friday. Get to it, so you can get to the weekend. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Played a bit of Overatch2 this evening. Made POTG 3 times. #gme

Plan for tomorrow: — verify it’s Friday — fight XCode — maybe do some Python — write — read — play

I wish restaurants, here in the US, would stop serving food on brioche buns. Structurally, they are useless for anything more than something like ham and cheese or pb&j. #restaurant #failure

It’s that time. Thank you all for following, interacting, putting up with me, and supporting me. I know you have multiple choices for who to follow. I appreciate your choosing me. Thank you for spending a bit of your time on me.

Hm. The new inspector in SwiftUI works weird on the iPad mini. Wonder if it’s me. It looks ok on a normal iPad. #swifui #wwdc

I should look into Swift charts and outline views. #swiftui

I always wonder when a server asks me, “Do you want fries on the side?” I think the correct response is, “No. Mix them in with the burger meat.”

It’s interesting that Bluesky was a thing a few weeks ago and now it’s Threads. What will it be next week? People are fickle.

I added a few more pages to my C3 short story. I really like this one. It has a fun/strong female protagonist, an interesting POV, and a fun twist ending. I still need to finish the fight scene, which takes up most of the story, and the ending. #writing #shortstory

It’s brutally humid and very warm. Summer is in full bloom.

Just because you have followers doesn’t mean you’re important.

I wish Apple would stop displaying internal debug messages as user error messages in their products. I want something I can a) understand b) do something to resolve. #apple #error #failure

I hate XCode. Today’s mysterious message that is keeping me from using a device. #xcode #failure

Hello. Experience the day. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

I want Activision/Blizzard to re-release the Infocom games. #gamedev
