I'm stalling on updating the Golfshrine website. These examples aren't uninteresting, and it's not like i have nothing to say about them. Just updating the website is a pain. Currently researching ways it can be made easier or more entertaining.
Maybe i should install Frontpage for Mac? Though I'd also have to struggle with how to upload the result...
Now on the Secret Area proper: https://asecretarea.com/2024/02/20/celeste-frustration-puzzle-platformers/
I have round cards, dog bone cards, donut cards, pizza slice cards, VW Minibus cards...
...but the shaped cards I'm the happiest to own is a trio I call the Extra Value Meal. Burger, fries, and a Coke.

Hey, Fedi admins, go right now and check to make sure that you have caps/limits set on your Object Storage provider so they just stop serving you images instead of charging you $3,000 because some random person in Europe decided to scrape your instance.

This is a really tragic tale (I hope they can get the charge reversed) but right at this moment I want to make sure this doesn't happen to anyone else.
In this video, for example, while "Wanna cookie?" definitely gets Minnie's attention, in some instances she only gets up or meows back when her person goes "Huh?" for emphasis.
So many different people, presumably people who have never met each other in any form, seem to have independently arrived at going "Mmm?" at their cats to chat with them. Not quite meowing back, but also not quite actual words.
I'm sure there's an entire sub-field of human linguistics around pet-talk. It's fascinating, like an inter-species pidgin language.
