https://netizen.club/~wildweasel/golfswings.html - Going live with a slightly more analytical article for Golfshrine, as I think about how being good at a golf video game is nowhere near the same thing as being good at actual golf.

thank you Matt Grey for this wonderful new image that I will save for when it is most needed

https://netizen.club/~wildweasel/gsdigital.html - I get a little grumpy-old-man today about digital ownership and whether I actually feel like documenting my disorganized, spread-out library of downloadable golf games.

Whoever's following me from Cohost and misses my fiction: I've been slowly reposting (and updating) some of my stories I wrote for the writing-prompts over here: https://weaselswriting.dreamwidth.org/2024/10/ (and some new stuff besides).

Another thing I'd settle for is a dual-playlist player where you can fill out one list with "quiet" tracks and another list with "action" tracks, and just hit a hotkey (or wire up a game script mod?) to shuffle to a track in the opposite list, as the mood dictates.

Somebody should make a standalone media player where you can load two songs up, they play in sync, and you hit a button to crossfade between them, so you can listen to stuff like Fire Emblem's two-part battle tracks or the soundtrack to the Flash game Continuity the way they function in game

You know what I can do here that I can't on bluesky? Upload my own damn animated GIFs.
