The cat needs to stop going up to, licking and biting every single plastic bag she can find in the whole world

I started on an experimental tool to easily (hopefully) make WarioWare-style microgames for NES, by creating a map, placing down any number of actors on the map, and defining the behavior of each actor using a sequence of premade behavior primitives (or just assembly).

No idea if I'll go anywhere serious with it but with the right scope it *seems* pretty doable. Just I don't know if it'll be genuinely helpful to have the script thing if the assembly it produces is mostly subroutine calls.

It's hard not to feel cooped up and stuck in my room when it's 12°F and I don't have friends to visit or places I'm required to go to

I told my girlfriend that she's so short that if she were an integer she could only count up to 65535

I'm still unsure if I would ever actually want to write a SNES game that wasn't a port. On one hand I have a strong love for the console and it would be amazing, and on the other hand things would be made much more complex and difficult without much of a benefit versus making a PC game. In contrast, NES's limitations make it an interesting platform.

Cat needs to learn that 3 AM is a bad time to start meowing for my attention

There's someone I chat with who roleplays Capcom's Felicia and she acts proud of her involvement in Darkstalkers and we have a situation where I'm like "oh hey I know you from Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo"

I need to get in the habit of just making some smaller short-term stuff so I can have a place to put creative energy.

obviously the reason White Diamond was unable to defeat Obsidian was she did not first construct a diamond pickaxe. I'm imagining her just pausing the fight to go punch some trees for the sticks, haha.

I wonder how tiny (and maybe consequently how fast?) a 6502 could be if made with modern chip processes and design

I actually heard back from the person who recently unadded me and cut me off and they told me it wasn't my fault and just that because of undisclosed abrupt life changes they had to leave all the people they used to roleplay with.

I suppose I can live with that, it's much better than anything my own head could've given me as a possible reason.

Actually went and organized all the transactions I did between today and the January 1st, 2018 because I was curious about how much I actually do spend on groceries on average based on actual data.

And the answer is $24.53/week which sounds about right. Also only ate out 16 times and it was almost exclusively Wendy's. When I manage to get a job I'm gonna stop being so stingy and just enjoy things more I suppose.

Very surprised to see the clock on my PS2 actually correct given how the clock on almost everything else I have with a time function (my TV, my calculator) where the time function is unimportant either was never set correctly or I never bothered to fix it after it lost the correct time

I wonder if spoilers are a part of human nature and if people in the days of Shakespeare had to avoid spoilers for Hamlet and stuff

cover letters seem pointless and unnecessary, why do people still ask for them

After being unsure about what my fursona would be material-wise, I'm pretty sure she's some sort of software that's taken a physical form somehow.

It would make all the video game character stuff make a lot of sense, help explain why she's so into computers, and open the door for a lot of shenanigans that sound really fun.

Now to try and put together meals that get away from pasta because I've had enough for awhile after going through a whole box of lasagna noodles myself over two days :p

Wow it's late already

I have no idea what the original Dr. Mario used for generating pill colors but I'm gonna try to put some work into preventing getting too many or too few of a type of pill
