Tilemap Town has the start of a mail system now. Things should be mostly implemented server-side (aside from anti-abuse measures I will need to add) and I need to add it client-side now too.

I don't think I'm going to put in a bulletin board system though because honestly that job is better done by forums.

I think it's the part of December where everyone's off visiting their families so I'm gonna brave it as best as I can and be productive with it if nothing else.

Me, except I'm not sure there's anything I actually want. I should probably ask for plushes or something.

Realizing that I have a NickServ and ChanServ equivalent but no MemoServ so I should get on that. Leaving messages for offline users is pretty important!

I found a big stack of referrals from high school that I thought were lost! Now I can reminisce about how bad students at my high school were.

When thinking about architecture for Tilemap Town features one thing that pops into my mind is "wait a minute am I reinventing IRC services here?"

I think the real problem with IRC services was that it was sort of clunky having *core* features like name and channel ownership be bots you message, but that kinda stuff is actually integrated into the server here.

I guess the concept of non-core features in the form of server-side bots for all users to use is harmless, though.

I think it's amusing how the pizza recipe I use barely uses most of the ingredients. A teaspoon of salt and sugar, 1/16th cup of oil. You can buy a large container and not have to again for like a year if all you use them for is pizza.

And then cake calls for a whole 1/3 cup of oil and it looks a little less endless after making a few.

Cake is in the oven. Excited to have cake again soon!

Once upon a time I had a friend over so we decided to bring a monochrome TV/monitor outside and plug it and a Nintendo 64 into the garage for no reason. I think we were very bored.

Saving money without getting in trouble 👍

MEOW

You know what, I think tonight is a cake baking night!

One predicament I have here is that while I'm 100% free to favorite anything I want without risk of it ending up on someone else's timeline, most of the stuff on Twitter I wanted to like (but that I didn't want to push onto anyone) was shown to me through... other people's likes ending up on my timeline. :p

This signal is so dirty but at least it's readable, I guess.

My preferred RF cable doesn't seem to be working so I'm using a Nintendo one and oh no

See this is what I mean. Bulky as heck.

I recently bought orange juice concentrate specifically to make Orange Julius but I just found that I don't have vanilla extract. I guess I'll have to get some next time.

Now that I've gone through my closet I wanna hook up my Commodore 64, though I'll have to find the power cables.

Shouldn't be hard to find, they're ginormous. :p

My closet is now actually usable! I can navigate it instead of awkwardly reaching over boxes or temporarily moving them out of the way.
