I wrote yesterday. I drew today. Can I keep it up?

...seriously, can I? I hadn't worked on either comic in over a year. I just don't have the spoons anymore.

@socketwench - I'm streaming it in Discord as we speak.

I did an art. First time since November 2021. O_o;

My current sleep schedule is at 5AM to 3PM and I've never felt so rested in my life.

Me at Ten: Falls off a two story house with nothing but the wind knocked out of me.

Me at 48: Pulls a back muscle sleeping.

I have sliced filet mignon into maruchan ramen.

Somewhere, a foodie is crying and doesn't know why.

@structuregeek - I did see the Fountain macros, but I needed something "now" that I knew worked versus trying to figure out a new program when something's due. But once I finish this I'll check it out. I've heard good things about Fountain.

@andyy - There was a place down south I liked to go to when I was in the area. IT was a branch of a Chinese place up on Anderson Lane that burned down in the 2000s....

@dfeuer - There were a few options listed there I'd already looked into. Most owere charging for software, which I was like "I'm laid off, I'll just go into Windows if I need to."

They did have a DEB file on that site that SEEMED to install on my system...but when I installed it, Linux Trelby just errored out.

Really hopeful that this'll be something that finally gets produced...

My Linux screenwiritng program, Trelby, no longer works in Linux. But if I install the Windows version via WINE, it works fine. That just feels wrong.

I just finished ripping my DVD copy of Fail Safe to disk. This movie, man. This movie. This is one of the most engaging and stressful movies I've ever seen. As the movie goes on, every scene ends up just being a scene of deeper and deeper trauma of everyone involved and a terrible and unnecessary Catch-22.

@andyy - I lived pretty close to there for several years. They were my goto place for American Chinese. (I did Chen's Noodle House and Asia Cafe when I wanted something less American).

So, yeah, the Tangy Spicy Shrimp IS the Austin Super China recipe, but with a lot more broth and veggies. The way Austin Super China served it was just the shrimp on a bed of sliced onions. This recipe is more of shrimp in a broth.

BUT, if I don't eat the broth, and just the shrimp, it's exactly the same. I'm thinking Austin Super China cooks it in the broth/sauce, but then either (1) drains the broth from the shrimp serving itself or (2) uses the sliced onion to soak up the broth.

It's kind of expensive to not eat the broth this cooks in (it takes 20-some scallions!), but it IS the same dish....

Out of 1989 people who underwent GRS surgery, SIX regretted it. SIX. 0.3%.

@Aminorjourney - I'm a big believer that the holodeck uses both holographic and replication technology for realism. It allows you to grab and move things realistically with heft and weight, while other stuff is just projection. Also: excuse for stuff like the oil smears. :)

I may not be able to pull off cosplay, but I know who can-tchya, Daaaarling!
