Dexy's second night in his new home. He seems pretty nonchalant about everything, unlike me.

We have decided on a name; say hello to Dexy! He is not yet brave enough to take food from my hand but he's already brave enough to follow my hand around the cage in case I drop some food for him. #hamster

Rejected names for the new hamster. At first, I was thinking of giving him a bear name, but Yogi and Boo-boo are words in Korean (here and married couple, respectively). Bobo sounds like a rude word. I don't think Arcto is euphonic in Korean. Paddington is way too long...

Sitting at the computer now hoping for the hamster to wake up for a bit.

Science experiment went well. I had a second teacher helping, which was good because we had test tubes of various liquids and some of those students were super grabby (as kids are).

RPG in which the world gets invaded by aliens with giant robots a la Macross but it's a fantasy world so the gnomes and kobolds have to put aside their differences to build HUGE METAL.

This animation was a lot of fun to make. It's very wiggly because I decided to get more practice drawing by redrawing the mech each frame.

Apologies for how many more times I'm very likely to share this, it's just wild to me that it's actually _there_ and I'm still being a little geeky about it.

Surely this can’t be the first time someone’s had the sense to combine a Slay The Spire-style roguelite progression with old-school NES-like turn-based combat? Surely? But I’ve never seen it until now, in the excellent-looking Star Spark. And I want to be playing it already! The sprite art, the feisty animations, and the pumped up music are all on point.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:e7xmfdjzn4arhrm3mcj2nzp2/bafkreiexz6zphkymepk3nq7uooa52i4alunmfe5pus3whmi5fsifyfeb74@jpeg)

I spent a lot of time talking about Joe Sacco in my classes. He was chronicling Palestine in comics form well before anyone else. His work is amazing to look at and if youre not familiar with him you should look him up. Really wishing i could go to this

Mildred Pierce's maxim was that you should never leave one room without knowing what you are going to do in the next one. I disappoint that bitch each and every day though, because what the FUCK did I come to the kitchen for, I cannot recall for the life of me.

Came to work on a Saturday to lead a 60 minute science experiment. So today at least, I am here for a good time not a long time.

Saw the latest Knives Out today, which is pretty perfect by the way, but 90 minutes into it an older lady in front of us exclaimed, "I don't think this is Hamnet!" and left.
Still trying to figure out why it took her an hour and a half to reach that conclusion.
