Fancy jar of honey from the grocery store for me. Tasted pretty good.
Baulders Gate 3. No, I can’t stay awake more than like 10 mins if I play
I would pay for BG3 ten times over if it worked that well
I have the same problem with marvels midnight suns.
Pickles, is that you?
What is that from? She’s pugly.
That’s Pickles Aplenty from the netflix show Bojack Horseman, specifically season 6 episode 11 at around 21:40.
I’ve seen the show, but not in years. Thank you!
And now you’re gonna think about Pickles whenever you wear those on your puppies.
Joke’s on you, I’m always thinking about pickles.
I bought one of those inflatable raft things that you can fill with water and lounge in (it has an inflatable pillow and cup holders!) and it’s still in the box. I bought it in early June and then got very, very sick and by the time I felt better, I just…forgot about it.
Today bought “bathrꝏm” tray to try organising objects scattered all over desk . Black with white marbling
Bought some frozen burgers, the TGI Fridays sliders. They’re alright. Problem with them is I can eat the entire box of four in a sitting.
Digital copies of the entire run of the Girl Genius webcomic. Very worth it.
Is that finished or still ongoing?
Bought trackball mouse
My workflow is not as fast as before but it is so much more comfortable, definitely worth it.
I had to reconsider. My thumb joint was grouchy after a few months.
Ah yeah, there no real place to rest the thumb, but since I use my keyboard like 80% of the time it does not matter too much.
I really like the Kensington Expert mouse for this reason. Expert Mouse Wired Trackball
I use my index and middle fingers to manipulate the ball (together or alternating scissor-walk like fashion), and ring finger to turn the wheel. Thumb for left click (bottom left button), and ring finger to right click (top right button). The hand doesn’t move at all, with movement all in the fingers.
It freaks out visitors when they try to use it, but it’s a life saver for click intensive workflows. So much so that I would have a second as a backup. My only complaint for it if I had one is that the scroll wheel can get a little loud with aggressive scrolling in a single direction, like trying to get to the bottom of a page.
I’ve been using trackballs for 25 years. What do you think of the M575? I’ve got a fleet of old and tired M570s that will need replacement soon.
I was like you. Both are great your over thinking it. 575 I think has a slightly less rounded curve but trust its nothing to worry about. I swap between both with ease. Matter of fact. I love the 570 sometimes but my hand arch started to get worn out after hours of use. 575 has less of an arch and relaxes the wrist a tad more.
I got an MX Ergo. It’s godfuckingawful. The M570 looks back at you so your thumb rests forward of the centerline of the ball. The Ergo looks to the side like a lobotomized beluga so your thumb rests on the centerline of the ball reducing the comfortable range of vertical travel. It also developed a nasty case of leprosy, the skin started to blister and peel, so rubber wrapped devices from Logitech are dead to me forever. I just…I’ve been soldering new click switches into my little herd of 570s because Logitech is really bad at electronics and they used inappropriate switches that wear out prematurely so I’ve been fixing it instead of buying anything else from them because I am a severely petty man but they’re starting to fail in ways I don’t know how to fix.
I went to a café and sat down with the book I’m currently reading and bought a coffee and a crêpe. It was very much worth it! I’ll do that again.
Registered for a fan run Nancy Drew -esque 3 day event in WA for 2026. Went to the one this year and it was a blast, registered right before it filled up.
I bought an IMAX film cell of Interstellar. It was a little pricey but I love the movie and I also shoot film.
Chicken buillon powder at the Asian Market.
It’s nice! I like it better than the store brand I normally get.
Hollow Knight. I had a twenty dollar gift card to game stop and told them to recommend something.
Ninja DCT401 12-in-1 Double Oven on Boxing Day. Worth every penny. Rarely using the full sized oven now. Uses a lot less power due to not have to heat as much air volume.
I was going to wait to purchase Silksong until I actually had time to play it… and then I ended up buying it on release day. I’ve only played a few hours but damn did I enjoy it.
I collect old tech. I recently bought three things all from Apple: and 7th gen iPod Nano, a 1st gen iPod Nano, and an iPhone 3GS.
These things were honestly stupid rare in my country, since I never recall seeing an iPod in the wild at all, and an iPhone before the 4, so seeing these in my thrift store immediately made me buy them.
Even though neither of the iPods work, and the 3GS turns on, but with a dead battery and boots to an iOS 4 style recovery screen, I have to say it’s definitely worth it just to have these as display items.
