Been kinda busy lately and haven't been making homemade meals. So I needed to reverse that trend and make something out of whatever I had at home.

Ended up making a kind of sweet potato, tomato, onion, and black bean stew, which was actually pretty good. I'd make it again on purpose next time and add something green to it -- maybe green onions.

That looks amazing.

It's a screen cap from Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster, which was the movie for Monsterdon last Sunday. It's significance is that 1) it is an impressively bad movie, and 2) this character held this grin on his face for like 15 seconds, which was funny.

This took me a second to get. Freaking great. :D

Wow, that things is gorgeous inside and out. I'm surprised the movement is so clean. Hope it all goes well!

This is so cool! Do you do many watch repairs, or is this a first attempt? And can we see the watch?

I'm kind of surprised that it's only 51 GB. They're all FLAC files ripped from CDs -- I was expecting like 300 GB at least.

So apparently this 1TB SSD is going to last me a while. :P

For those who aren't familiar with this game, it's in the same genre as Mount & Blade, but with spaceships instead of horses. Or Sid Meier's Pirates, but spaceships instead of pirate ships. Definitely one of those "I'll just make one more quick cargo run..." type of games.

This update looks great. In additional to new strategy options through diplomacy, they're also tweaking how ships handle.

This is such a great writeup, thank you! I always can't believe the actual photos I see of Group B races, lol.

Wow, nice one!

Looks great! So is the tofu air fried, and the rest stir fried? Or steamed?

Thanks! I'm behind on a bunch of other issues, so I have plenty of things to read before getting back to those ones. But if I'm still looking in a couple weeks, I might have to take you up on that.

Sometimes I hear about other people's storage setups and I think, "that is overkill, no one really needs that." According to this thread, I am quite mistaken about that. 😳

I have 2,057 songs, taking up a measly 51 GB, on a Funkwhale server. No movies or TV shows.

That should get a little larger soon. I have about 100 vinyl records that I want to make digital rips of.

Short list today.

• Uncanny X-Men #17
• Wolverine and Kitty Pryde #4, and I still need to find Wolverine and Kitty Pryde #3 somewhere. Maybe they'll get restocked today.

There's a used bookstore near me that has the oldest cash register I've ever seen. It has keys like a typewriter, and makes the most satisfying "ka-ching" sound when it opens. They always use it to add up your purchase and print a receipt, even when you're paying with a credit card. But I always try to bring cash when I'm there so that the drawer gets used. (And also, y'know, screw credit card companies taking their cut.)

I know that's not really "in widespread use" today, which is probably what the question meant, but that was the first thing that came to mind for me.

You're not wrong. That is one type of correct.

Nice one! And yeah, my brain is definitely in five-letter mode for these types of games, haha.
