These prints turned out pretty bad but they were really just a test (that mostly failed).

Weird issue with GarlicOS on the RG35XX today. Games launch, then quit, and the screen blinks/flashes repeatedly. (Doesn’t happen when I switch back to stock OS.)

Dude looks serious as shit this morning.

nostr:npub1dlhzpax8qh6pja2t28sgl2gw28eclwp3052q9k0rkzjgul28xzkqvzramv The weird part is, I don't really have any connection to the ex-girlfriend, but do feel a connection to her ex, since he's a really creative guy.

Or maybe that's not weird at all. I tend to admire/gravitate towards other creatives.

A big list of fantasy consoles / computers. Wow, quite a lot. I'll probably focus on PICO-8 and dabble with TIC-80 though.

I finally got a new typewriter. (The one on the right.) I had a blue "Easy Writer" about 30 years ago and someone lost it in the many moves over the years.

Yes, it's plastic, yes, it's a "toy", and yes, it really types.

A friend of mine who collects typewriters managed to find it for me so I bought it from her. Sweet!

Many years ago I ended up staying with an old ex-girlfriend when I traveling. I'd been married a long time, and she was seeing someone long term, but it was great to reconnect and meet her partner.

A few years passed and she and her partner split up. Which was awkward for me, because I *really* liked her partner.

He seemed extremely cool and interesting, and was very creative. I still follow some of his work online, but I don't know... it just feels weird.

A few more additions to my sidewalk square project. The idea is to find one in Milwaukee for every year.

I’ve been quiet lately but I’m deeply immersed in PICO-8 games…

Sometimes when you screw up the woodworking measurements, you end up fixing it with a special 3D printed part…

I designed and (relief) printed a generic birthday card. My plan is/was to do a bunch of different ones and have them sitting around ready to go when an unexpected birthday sneaks up on me.

Would you prefer a hand-printed card (that I actually designed) to a store-bought card?

I've been back from holiday almost two full days and I feel completely burned out.
