Now that is a comfy kitty. Both of them really, but Barry’s showing how it’s done.

Spoiled? These cats? Whatever would make you say such a strange thing?

Top shelf is nice and clean. Clear of distractions and clutter such as my wifi router.

Thank you kitties. Yes I agree it’s much more aesthetically pleasing in its new home: upside down on the floor.

To my own shock and surprise I completed all my promised tasks for the day, and it only took one day.

As much as I love novelty, it amuses me how hard I lean into the familiar sometimes.

Halfway through a great Udemy Org mode course and I switch my notes to Vimwiki because less friction or something.

@Ventronik For the org mode course I was using org mode (in Doom Emacs).

Right right today’s the Perl and Raku Conference (in the Cloud)

I mean. I need the coffee session first, but still.

New Firefox has the text “PLAYING” on any tab with audio / video playing. No mystery meat navigation.

I like this.

I do love how pyinvoke simplifies grouping tasks into collections.

In a shocking turn of events, I have managed to work through the morning’s stack of “oh I need to fix N^x if I want to commit M” and am nearly back at where I was with task M four hours ago!

Gah. That thing where you almost have the thing figure out but not quite and it’s just so tantalizingly close and all of a sudden it’s 2am and you’re no closer. Dang it.

Why is my Linux screen going bonkers?

[Looks over to see loungy kitten watching me while kneading the keyboard]
