So I went to see Coyote vs. Acme yesterday! This movie has intrigued the everloving fuck out of me since the initial hullabaloo about Warner being completely evil and shelving the thing, openly, for tax purposes, so knowing that it got picked up for distribution (and has since gone on to print money—take that, corpo stooges!) had me making plans to go see it. I wasn't expecting to find it so enjoyable though, on literally every level, nor was I expecting it to be so surprisingly cerebral. I Read more
I held off writing this post honestly more out of laziness than anything else, but also because I wanted to make sure that my replacement setup was going to hold out in the short-medium term, and thankfully, it seems to be. Let's catch you up... The eMachines Box is no stranger to problems. I've already had to replace the hard drive on it twice, going with a (freshly twenty-year-old) 250GB WD Caviar drive at first, and then when that gave up, simply going with a modern SSD plugged into an Read more
With a 42 day legacy behind me, I have, in my own way, managed 100% of Cookie Clicker achievements. Well, 99%. The last one is to click 7,777 Golden Cookies—that's not fucking happening any time soon. I have about 1,300 Golden Cookie clicks.

The progress towards 700 of everything At the moment, the achievements for buildings top out at owning 700 of them. This takes you into the duovigintillions, which Read more
Slightly late, seeing as today marks a week since I arrived home, but I've been sprawling out and decompressing which comes before updating the journal—I'm home again! I got back to the US in the dewey final hours of the 9th and back home around 2AM in all. Slightly late, but I was pretty wired, so I still found time to get a shower and settle down before I ultimately slept not long before the sun came up. Once again, the batshit weather in the US delayed my arrival. I was supposed to fly back Read more
The thing I crave more and more as time goes on is simplicity and familiarity. Getting a job and traveling after the lockdowns spurred on a hyper period of trying everything, going everywhere, building everything (Caby is fond of saying that, for marfGH, in the triangle of "quick, cheap, and well put together", I picked all three). This is great, and I do have lots of great memories and feel my mind has been embiggened by the last three years of going ham, it has left me wondering if I'm Read more
