I need to download the latest Pico-8. I’m probably more than a year behind. #pico8 #gamedev

The Spirit of Christmas Presents is an old sock marked down 25%. #life #christmas

Ok. I need to make pistachio cranberry biscotti. Not sure why, but it sounds like a decent combo to try. #baking

Isn’t it time for a new Apple product line, instead of an upgrade to an existing one? #apple

When you want to be perfect, but you realize you’re actually Batman.

Someone should have a “Pizza Advent Calendar” Nope nope nope.

It amazes me (well, not really) how marketing promotes: “A free gift for you” while giving you a 10% discount on stuff you don’t need. It’s not a gift if you expect me to pay 90% of the price. #marketing #failure

“Some day, I’ll use this ____, and I’ll save money.” Things people say while hoarding ____. #life #failure

My mind keeps wishing for an XCode project XREF utility. I may have to create one to find dead code and functions. #xcode #swift

Hm. Did you ever notice that “I want to get together” may be redundant? The “to get” part? And who is the “her” we’re talking about? #writing

What’s the worst present you ever got? Me? Socks and clothes. I don’t wear many and people either believe I do, or think I need more. I’d rather have a book or a gadget or game. Parents: you should never gift clothes. Clothes are a necessity, not a gift. #life

Happy Wear Brown Shoes Day

Spending the morning clobberin' an iOS bug and sipping coffee while listening to the radio (yup old school).

Good morning, all. It’s a sunny day here. Enjoin enjoying the day. Time for the ceremonial coffee.

Plan for tomorrow: — eat wings and stuff — Python — read — play some games — relax
