About a year ago I was booted off my team at work and told to go find another team to join (???) because, and I cannot believe this is the case, I did not want to name variables and database columns in the style of MSDOS file names.

I just got author medal on the hard ice track of the new Trackmania campaign and as soon as I did I let out a wicked huge fart.

jp game developer in the 90's: so we're making a bass fishing game composer: oh hell yeah i got you [adds "drop the bass" sample] jp game developer: no no like the fish composer: what fish?

I feel like I've been in a mental holding pattern for the last couple weeks. Being trapped inside for a week didn't help.

Today I'm reminded of my favorite bit of old coffee wisdom: the bigger the bean, the bigger the grind.

Had some failure this morning but then this guy showed up to redeem the day

Infrared snow day

Mardi Gras costume idea: The Hereaux of Time

"...and these are the chowder tanks!" I say, slapping the side of one of the great steel pillars. "Ouch! Forgot for a sec these puppies are each holding 60 decaliters of piping hot chowder! Want a taste?" I open the valve and pressurized, scalding, creamy fluid sprays my tour group. "Drink up!"

“I am Hari Seldon.” The voice was old and soft. “I need TP for my bunghole.”

I'm so happy with how this space station animation I made for an upcoming collab with ost comp jam came out

I can buy a claw-foot bath tub if I want to.

Drinking beer straight from the can like a filthy animal.

Master and Commander is such a good fucking movie

I did not sign up to shovel sand. Except this is sand of ice instead of silica. Maybe that's what's on the beaches in hell, I hope it is. No less than the ICE goons deserve.

I shovel, then I beer.

When I played Trackmania United a long time ago, I didn't know there was a social scene; servers and so on. I didn't know any of the hidden mechanics. I discovered some of the air control tricks by necessity and thought they were weird. I was so naive.

Sorry, F1 The Movie, but Speed Racer is still the superior racing film. Valiant effort though.

I live on a steep-ish street. Every time there's snow I think about the neighbors who used to live across the street from me. They would order delivery for at least two meals a day even in the snow. Dunkin, Chic-Fil-Asshole, Maccas, etc. I see em out the window while I'm workin.

Look Around You is one of the most important comedy artifacts ever created.

I've been leaning towards Tubi being the streaming service, and now I think it's official: they have Season 1 and Season 2 of one of the best science and technology comedy shows ever made… "Look Around You". Thanks, Tubi. Thubi. tubitv.com/series/30001...

Good evening, humans. On this #ItaloDiscoFriday, we invite you to have Sex Tonight on behalf of Brian Martin (1984). The guitar, the vocals, the chugga chugga bass, and the little pinch of saxophone are all you need. Stay safe, stay warm. www.youtube.com/watch?v=L878...

These cannoli chips contain cane sugar AND stevia! Stevia just tastes so wrong. Why have you done this

I bought a mystery record that had all the right indicators of being My Shit and yeah, I pulled a banger. Late '70s euro disco (French, specifically). www.discogs.com/release/2901...

I say once more, respect to the man in the ice cream van.

Daydreaming about being 40 years old. Fiber supplements! Lite beer! Back problems! Constant low-level pain! Middle management promotion! And of course, the piece of resistance, Doctor Putting Things Up My Butt!

Saw the local liquor guy to pick up some of his latest experiment (rum). He was proud of the fact that he bottled up an entire pallet of stuff all by himself by "letting the autism flow." No music, podcast, anything. Lights off because they make a hum. Just sunlight, "robot mode." Love ya man.

The Best Picture category this year is stacked with weirdo picks. There's Oscar bait of course, but then you got Sinners Frankenstein Bugonia and to a lesser extent F1 and One Battle... (which make sense, but they don't feel like traditional Best Pictures, yknow?)

Hey I'm real glad Sinners got so many Oscar nominations. I went in with no expectations and was blown away. I've watched it twice more since. I made some posts on here about the cinematography, even. Oscar-worthy? I'm not qualified to judge. But I hope they get it.

I set a record on one of those U10S (under 10 seconds) maps in Trackmania, came back tonight and it was soundly beaten. I took it back. The others on there are habitual record holders on these things. I'm sure they spent a fraction of the time I did on it, but still feels good.

Everyone's in pre-apocalypse mode for the huge snowstorm. They're cleaning out the eggs, milk, bread, meat, snow melt, and shovels. Let's hope they aren't cleaning out the tools I need to replace my garbage disposal.

iOS Liquid Ass deleted the (non-Apple) wallpaper I've had on my phone for 15 years. Just replaced it with a stark black background. I could probably track down that image again, but it appears they've also removed the parallax effect? Seems they REALLY want you to use just one home/lock image too.

Unrelated, I've really started to enjoy learning to drive ice maps in Trackmania. They're kind of relaxing and when you nail a sequence it's just so satisfying.

Abolish ICE Use due process to strip the agents of their liberty and send them to a hole in the ground. Being in this country without documentation is not a crime. Violating the US Constitution (even under orders) is. My calls to my reps don't do anything. Doesn't mean I don't try.

I got a new manager at the beginning of the year and we haven't had even one conversation. Not in standups, not on Slack, just nothing. Great first impression, man.

Why haven't they brought back Ask Jeeves as an AI yet

A failed cockblock is just a glansing blow.

I want some pound cake.

I just don't think Eyes Wide Shut is very good. I think it's impressively made, but at the end it feels like nothing happened. Maybe watch The Game with Michael Douglas instead.

Finally got this developed from the same day

Surprise snow storm today, led to this pic

Tried something new. 800T shot at 1000 and pushed 1 stop.

The cosplays bring this to another level for me

Sorry it's been a while but I've been busy the past several #ItaloDiscoFriday but today is different! Did you know that sometimes people make Italo Disco even in modern times? Here's one from 2019, and they nailed it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAKL...

I keep forgetting that this web site supports adding alt text to images!!!

I saw this pinball machine and just had to play it (it was bad)
