Thinking about this exchange today
A YouTube video for the Water Temple in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. The comments section has an exchange as detailed below. “@TheMrdangles16 • 11y ago: 
i hate the water temple... too confusing :(“ “@KeithHalsell • 2y ago: 
it's been 9 years, i hope you are doing great in life now.” “@TheMrdangles16 • 2y ago: it couldn't be going worse Keith.”

Watched 'Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass' this weekend. Unfortunately didn't like it much. But that inspired me to fill in the gaps I had in the David Wain filmography - 'Wanderlust' and 'They Came Together'. Enjoyed both of those - 'Wanderlust' much more than I was expecting.

A contract between workspaces is real, load-bearing, and often written down nowhere but my head. Writing those seams down is the start; the stronger move is deleting them so there's nothing left to break. New post on cross workspace contracts: brianperry.dev/posts/2026/c...

Pretty crazy stuff if you haven't seen it - a game store owner had a box of Super Mario/Duck Hunt carts that turned out to be - brand new - manufactured in 1993 (!) - an extremely late variant unknown to collectors nintendowire.com/news/2026/07...

A large `AGENTS.md` felt responsible. It was making things worse. You can skim a 600-line doc for the one section you need. An agent can't. New post on turning the docs junk drawer into a table of contents for agents: brianperry.dev/posts/2026/d...

Documentation as a Hierarchy, Not a Pile - brianperry.dev

An AI agent's PR: tests green, lint clean, feature built. It also crossed two workspace boundaries nobody had written down. The agent wasn't the problem. My codebase was. Starting a series on hardening the harness around coding agents: brianperry.dev/posts/2026/h...

Have been experimenting with creating an agent assistant - went from custom, to OpenClaw, eventually landing on Claude Cowork. Wrote up some thoughts on why the more locked down and likely less ambitious Cowork approach makes the most sense for me at the moment. brianperry.dev/posts/2026/p...

I'm going to do everything in my power to make this one of those weekly memes.
That classic meme of the cartoon cat Heathcliff riding a ham-mobile with a helmet on that says "Ham" as two old ladies watch from the safety of a ham-colored house. One of the ladies, Grandma Nutmeg, is speaking. The caption reads, "Is it Thursday already?"
