Short story day!
Posting a WIP that I have change notes for, so you can see what's different later (and maybe we spot the same things?).

Not to brag but I just had an eye exam and was told I have extremely healthy eyes and optic nerves.

(And apparently a birth mark on the interior of my right eye)

Evil Dead 2, somewhere around age 10 or 12. Shown to me and my younger brothers by an uncle who commentated it as a comedy and made us promise not to tell our parents.

What's the first R-rated you remember seeing, and how old were you?

Fell off a boat today. Luckily it was only about 2.5m and I have flawless reflexes and landed on my feet like a middle aged cat.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 5:
A book doesn’t need a “serious message” to be worthwhile. Joy is a legitimate end in itself.

Now that I'm a homeowner I'm thinking a lot more about "save money and do it myself" vs "save time and have a professional do it"

100% achievements in Hades 2!
Wrapped up with Great Chaos Below, relying on Xinth's omega special... and didn't get a special boon until the final boss shop. Somehow managed it though!

I don't like outdoor cats, but at least they get rid of the squirrels harassing my bird feeder.
Right?
...right???

Unlike raccoon, squirrel CAN reach the bird feeder.
Can't get inside due to anti-squirrel security features though.

It's been a while since I posted any backyard cam footage. Finally got around to checking some from the new place! Unfortunately I waited so long the memory card filled up and I'm missing 10 days of potential visits, but I'll change settings so I'm not filming squirrels and sparrows in daytime.
