Really annoying that I can’t find stimulating content or interaction in a way that would keep me writing. All my essays are from like two one week periods separated by two months of shooting the sh$t.

Step one … pick up and play the godd@mn bass after years of ignoring it … f$&kin' ✓

So nearly all of my iphonography runs through Brushstroke. Code Organa showed me some range with Inkwork (which I sometimes use instead of Adobe Capture to get a simplified shape to feed into Brushstroke). Turns out they were on point again with Relight.

The original:

The split screen (of the single tap correction):

The result:

By the way folks, this proves that restful study (and the allowance of time for your neural pathways to reformat) > all-nighters.

Wasn't sure I would capture my record on video today (feels like I didn't get enough sleep) … turns out it took 8 minutes. Getting my 0.40 mean time on video won't be so easy.

This Is Not "F$&k You" in Japanese Sign Language

Japanese children are taught the names of all the fingers … the middle finger is the “brother finger" …

I had one older ┌П┐(ಠ_ಠ)

If you're following along with what's happening in Georgia, here is me calling this out for what it is some time last year On Tipping Points

So picking up the bass totally got derailed by a sudden desire to get a screen recording of my world record score for Color of Deception in Brain Wars. Haven't played in months, should get there tomorrow.

I’ll take self-fulfilling prophecies for $200 (RIP Mr. Trebek).

Dammit, now that I have noticed Hugo generates lists for posts by year (i.e. moondeer.blog/2020/) I bet Imma end up making more freakin’ banners…

If I could write the logic in Swift I’d be done already.

(눈_눈)

I suppose it wouldn’t take much to make my Hugo theme actually useable for others. Just moving some hardcoded stuff to the parameters portion of config.json. That and replacing some of the logic where navigation menu items are concerned.

Okay, it was totally worth it to get more in either direction.

2.5x to get closer

or 0.5x for when she is under my feet

Kind of wild to get a new phone and realize you need to hold it farther away from your face than you were holding the previous one.

39 days. Apparently the longest I can tolerate mistakenly downgrading my iphonography experience by ordering an iPhone Mini to replace the iPhone I spiked is 39 days. iPhone 12 Pro Max scheduled to arrive by noon.

Previous post via Ulysses. Entirely painless process for the straightforward content. We’ll see how it handles shortcodes.

Should our legislators convince themselves that the reinstatement of old norms and precedents constitutes meeting this moment, the entire house of cards will need to come down so we might begin again atop our forefathers’ foundation. Minority rule is unacceptable.

Running out of steam … I wonder what I will pick up next.

♫ Where is myy mind?
♫ Where is my mmind?
♫ WheeeEERRREE isss myyy miiinndd?

Should I manage to build up traffic, @manton, I figure I should put the Micro.blog stuff back into my theme (just need to figure what color to go with instead of that marfa pink).

My office (hashtag ADHD)

Lest anyone think Apple wouldn’t make you jump through hoops to get to that underlying HTML.
