Fictional worlds and roleplay are the center of the universe. Seems right.

Attempting sandwich/burger buns and hotdog/hoagie. My shaping has a lot to be desired. But I'm sure it will all taste good

My Reddit account is officially 18 years old today. It can vote, enlist, and legally sign a lease. Meanwhile, I’m still using it to argue with strangers about things that don't matter. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Thanks to @middleearth.quest and @rpg.actor I had to update my sprite. That made me update my personal website larakin.systems as the sprite didn't update... That led me to add an atproto xrpc call and grab the latest Treeline.world activity for my user. I love the Atmosphere!

Dough shaping and cleanliness are my some of my dump stats.

I had my first ride on the new bike yesterday. I picked the toughest climb I know to try it out. It has caused me two days of work trying to put ideas into existence on the internet.

The internet is back. I feel like im back in 80s with my new dialup discovering a new world. So many fun things to play with. post-like.exe.xyz
Just realized my D&D campaign world is basically a giant Obsidian vault that I'm vibecoding into a website. The players think I'm a genius, I'm just moving markdown files around and hoping the AI doesn't delete the main quest. 🚂
