Do you ever have a note page or sticky note that has so many things scratched out and jumbled around that you re-write the parts that still matter, neatly, on a fresh note page/sticky note?

I don’t know the difference between cheering/encouraging (allowed) and coaching (not allowed) at my kid’s soccer game, so I just keep my mouth shout.

Would it be odd for me to change my ringtone to the soothing sounds a thermal printer makes when it's printing labels?

It’s likely an a11y change, but even if so, why force it on everyone or not make it more obvious how to switch back? And why mark almost everything as important? None of it makes sense to me. I disabled it.

"Disable importance markers: While the color of the importance marker cannot be customized, it can be hidden via Settings > Inbox > Importance markers by selecting 'No markers.'"

Gmail is automatically marking specific emails as "important" in an eye-burning shade of blue, and it's flagging 95% of my emails... what's the point?

The last time I played it (my 2nd play through after a multi-decade break) I never got lost and made steady progress. At one point I made a mistake that made me have to "reset" things but it wasn't a big deal.

I’m about 6 hours in and am enjoying it. It’s bot as bold and exciting as the SH2 remake but it is more interesting the SHf.

I feel icky. The look I get says “You’re back. Of course you are. Another sad tuna sandwich? Say no more.”

The local cafe has memorized my tuna sandwich order. This is both exciting and depressing.
