I would love a Kirby & Wario game. Just a Kirby game and a Wario Land game smushed together. Doesn't have to be anything fancy.

For work, sometimes it's easier for me to write something in F#, get it working, and then port it to C#, then to write it in C# from the get-go. I don't quite know why but working in F# really helps me work through the problem.

Why can't Ben Song just leap into someone who's about to go to bed. Dude needs a nap

Fire Emblem Engage is a Scrabble fan's favorite SRPG - it has both qi and za

I can't decide whether I regret not buying a Hori Digital Controller for the GameCube ~15 years ago, or whether I'm glad I didn't end up with a rare collector's item that I'd be too scared to actually use.

I think the Twitch app on my TV box freezes when there's too much activity in chat

I love the Pikmin 4 speedrun at ADGQ this year. It has everything: intended gameplay, unintended gameplay, and guessing

I'm thinking now about making a variant of Crowmask that pulls posts from DeviantArt instead of Weasyl. It would simplify some things (all posts have GUIDs) and I'm more active there, but I would have to add an OAuth login flow.

I wonder if I should call it Crowmask 2.x, or give it a new name? I'm leaning towards the former.

(I'd rather not have one codebase that pulls from both - there's not much use case for it.)

I'm following 30 accounts besides my own, across 20 servers. Only two of those run something besides Mastodon

I found out recently that my alma mater's new events center (+ basketball arena) will also have a 100-yard indoor fieldhouse. I'm really hoping they can use that as a backup venue for softball games! One year when I was in college, all their home games got cancelled on account of rain or snow until nationals.

I don't know where the myth started that the Packers are owned by the municipal government of Green Bay, and not by shareholders, but I really hope it was with Danny Phantom

Working on an ActivityPub project has shown me that JSON-LD is easier than it looks, and HTTP signatures are a lot harder
