The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is getting a remaster... gonna be free if you already own it... Nice.

There's a birthday party going on in the street behind me. They've got karaoke going on, and they absolutely suck.

Eh... It was one of the RAM sticks that went bad and was causing the issue. Unfortunately, it was the big one, the 8 GB stick. Fortunately, I had a 4 GB one lying around from another dead laptop. So, not yet, old friend. Not yet.

Welp, my old 2012 laptop just died. On the bright side, I don't think it's the HDD, since I removed it and the laptop still doesn't even turn on. That's actually good, because even though there wasn't anything particularly important on it, I do have some old college files I'd like to keep. On the downside, I used to take it with me on short trips, and now I have nothing to bring with me.

Things I only find when I don't need them and can't find when I do need them: my pendrives. Maybe I should, I don't know, be more organized? Changing is hard.

Welp, my dog hasn't had a seizure since starting the medication, which is great. On the downside, the medication makes him look like he's drunk all the time. Apparently, it takes about 7–10 days for his brain to adjust to it.

Welp, so much for it being a one-time thing. He had another seizure. The blood tests didn't show anything, so he's on phenobarbital now. I really hope it works.

One of my dogs scared the hell out of me today. In the middle of the night, he had a seizure. It had never happened before. I took him to the vet, and they drew some blood for tests. I'm hoping it was just a one-time thing. He seems fine right now.

I can't access the main site on my old phone (iPhone 7) anymore. All I get is a black screen when I try, so no more reading while I'm on the toilet. I can still access the forum, though, so I can keep shitposting.

I guess it's time...

At this point, it's inevitable...

My next purchase will be one of these.



I've been using a regular hair clipper for years, but it's a lot of work, and it doesn't shave close enough.

Sometimes I think manga readers are the worst critics of any medium, and sometimes I'm certain of it. Or maybe we're just too horny, and anything with sexual content gets a perfect 10 after just a few chapters. I don't know.

I can understand giving a manga 1 star after only a few chapters, but a perfect 10? Nope.

I have a 13-year-old Yorkshire Terrier, and his bladder isn't what it used to be. So I always wake up much earlier than I need to just to take him out to the backyard so he can go to the bathroom.

Today, when I took him out, I got distracted picking up the poop in the yard and lost track of him. The motherfucker went back inside and pissed on his EVA foam mat.

Anyway, thanks for reading my blog.

Also, I might kill my dog.

Sometimes I sneeze so hard, I pop my shoulder.

Goddammit! Why is my gooner gacha story so compelling and depressing? That's not what I signed up for!

So, I had these sneakers sitting in a drawer for like eight years. I never wore them because they weren't very comfortable, but since my current pair has a worn-out sole, I took them out to wash them because I don't want to buy a new pair.

Halfway through washing one, the entire sole just peeled right off...

I guess everything really does have an expiration date.

Now I'm worried about my car tires. They're all past their expiration date, but they haven't reached the mileage where they need to be replaced, and the tread still looks fine. And tires are expensive...

What to do, what to do.

Today I witnessed the origin of the term "bug" in computing firsthand.

My mom's Amazon Echo Dot stopped working, so I tried the basics: unplugging it. As soon as I pulled the power cable, ants streamed out of the auxiliary jack. I started tapping it, and an absurd number poured out, an entire nest with larvae and all. It worked again once they were evicted.

This reminded me of the famous Harvard Mark II incident in 1947, when engineers found a moth trapped in a relay and taped it into the logbook as the "first actual case of bug being found." That is why we call software glitches "bugs."

Nothing beats leftover pizza for breakfast. Except, maybe, a proper breakfast. But hey.

Shoot the messenger, I guess.

Cold take: A Couple of Cuckoos is just as bad as, if not worse than, Rent-A-Girlfriend.
