Homemade barbecue wings (well, drumsticks really), and rewatching Summer Wars for the first time in like 10 years. Not a bad way to spend a sick weekend, I think! Wings came out decent, but I didn't have enough sauce, so the flavor was light. I had forgotten just how FUN Summer Wars was!

A picture of 7 drumsticks on a foil-lined pan. The drumsticks are cooked golden brown and covered in bbq sauce.

The promotional cover art for the 2009 anime movie Summer Wars. Natsuki is seen front-and-center along a grassy path holding a japanese battle flag. Her family, and Kenji, can be seen posed in the background. Green mountains and trees can be seen in the distance.

The result of today's #StarRupture stream: Turning 16 Sulfur nodes into 8 drone ports full of Sulfuric Acid (3840/min in, 1920/min out), as well as SO much finagling bug turrets (stay in the hole, dangit!). We raided @cupohjoe.bsky.social after 6.5 hours of streaming, and I am HUNGY. #Twitch

A screenshot from StarRupture. A factory can be seen on a green hillside. From bottom left to top right: a square wall covered in pillars and turrets around a spooky monolith with floating pieces, 16 Cargo Receiver ports in a 4x4 square, 3 Helium Extractors, a big Cooling Tower, 3 furnaces, 4 rows of 1 furnace leading into 4 Pressurizers each. Each of the 4 rows is leading into 8 Cargo Dispatchers in the far background. Everything is connected by a chaotic network of rails.

To whoever at work decided to cable the server rack I just spent 8 hours redoing with 20ft cables for 4-goddamn-foot runs with the cables routed THROUGH AND AROUND each other, and then release that shit to the co-lo so I had to cable-manage without unplugging things: #IT #Servers

We've gone from Passion Projects and Labors of Love to Passionless Projects and Laborious LLMs. Why the hell would you use AI to do a project FOR you? There's no satisfaction in that! Certainly no more than the same instantaneous low-grade satisfaction one gets from "fun sized" candies! #GameDev

A trillion thanks to @cupohjoe.bsky.social for this piece of my #Battletech OC! After 12 months in the Bezos Mines, my 1-Year Sub Square is now complete! I absolutely love it, and you should totally subscribe to this Sentient Pompadour posthaste! #Art #OC

A pixel art scene of a BattleTech Marauder with a character sitting on top of it. The Marauder has a gunmetal grey and gold livery, an orange canopy, and a shoulder-mounted cannon on the far edge. Several panels on the Marauder are open, exposing wires and internals. The character is wearing an orange and yellow jumpsuit and glasses, has dark-brown hair, and is holding a steaming coffee mug and a tablet. The character is looking at the tablet, and is seated on one of the shoulders of the Marauder with one leg extended and one leg cocked. A metal and orange wrench is propped up between the shoulder and the canopy fairing.

I got Kindness followed by Determination, with Patience being lowest. AuDHD goes brr I suppose, lol. "You've stuck with things long after they stopped being good for you, because quitting felt like betrayal" stabbed me in the feckin' soul, oof.

A picture from the below linked quiz. The result is a green heart that says "Kindness (GREEN SOUL · #00C000)". Below that, it says: "No matter how many times I got hurt, I never let that make me cruel.
*A clear result, but not a lopsided one: determination is right behind it by 7.9 points."

"Your full spread
Kindness: 78%
Determination: 71%
Justice: 69%
Integrity: 37%
Perseverance: 29%
Patience: 22%

50% is neutral. Above it you leaned toward that virtue, below it you leaned away."

A screenshot from the game StarRupture. It depicts a factory built on a grass and rock hillside. Platforms cover much of the hill, but some greenery shows through here and there. From left to right: A cooling tower ("Base Core") slightly cut off of the image, a habitat behind it, two spherical "Helium Extractors", a raised platform with 8 cubic "Cargo Receivers" and 4 "Cargo Dispatchers", 8 towering "Pressurizers" in the background, and a lower platform with 32 "Furnaces" making various items, all linked together with a rail network.

Uh, fuckin' whatnow? I realize that I'm well overdue for getting off of Twitter, I'm literally just there because there's a crapton of artists who refuse to come over here because of the god-awful automod stuff. But I got this the MOMENT I hit "retweet" on something. Perhaps it IS time after all...

What the heck even happened here, Kroger?

A picture of 4 sticks of butter on a countertop. The labels showing the measurements on where to cut the butter are WILDLY misaligned, with the "ruler" wrapping all the way around to the front face of each stick's wrapper.
