Yellowstone: Marshals......

I went to my favorite cafe earlier this afternoon and had a piece of coconut cake. They usually don't even have coconut cake so I was really happy.

15 Questions for Fic Writers

In chat for PWHL games, people call the NHL the MNHL because if all women's sports need a W stuck in there, we're going to stick Ms into boy sports. This gave me the idea to do a logo edit to make buttons of. The lettering isn't perfect... (But don't ask how much it took for me to get it that decent) Most people wouldn't catch the reference, but I feel like making a logo edit (hopefully, maybe) somewhat explains the joke.

The main viewership for PWHL games are on youtube with a moderated chat, which is heavily shaping PWHL fan culture right now. MNHL, hocket, RTPTPP, negotiations, etc all come from there.

Also, at games people do trinket trades! I have some stickers and also a necklace with a glass pendant in Torrent colors that I've been given at events. I had planned to have items for the trinket trade at the pride game, but the project I started wound up being bigger than I could get done in time. I am still doing that project, but I am also working on a pin set because I've made lots of pins over the years. Pin designs, doing something I know how to do, what a concept. I have my own button maker, sized 1.25" I am working on some other designs as well.

I am fine with this being a joke only some people get, but at first glance how does the image read? I've got a long time before the LimewireTorrent play again, so I've got time to polish these ideas. I can't make the lettering too much bigger without widening the overall shield-shape more, and if do that it stops reading like the NHL crest and starts reading rent-a-cop

Éalú (Irish for "escape") is a puzzle game where you play as a mouse trying to find a way out of a diabolical maze. What caught my eye about it is that it's stop-motion animated—not digital art in the style of stop-motion, but actual video clips of physical hand-built rooms and models made of wood and wire.



It's a simple one-click interface where you just interact with things. The puzzles are, unsurprisingly, of a very concrete physical nature: Turn a handle in this room to change something in another room, or press buttons on a box to rotate a mechanism until things line up. Successful puzzle solves unlock doors to new areas. Thorough exploration is rewarded, as you may find clues to puzzles in distant rooms—but also punished, as seemingly innocuous and even attractive objects may instantly kill you and send you back to the start of the maze. (If you cannot handle the thought of the cute wooden mouse dying, do not play this game.) But you get unlimited second chances, armed with new knowledge each time you venture out again.

( cut for length )

Éalú is on Steam for $14.99 USD. It's advertised as taking 2-4 hours, which is probably about right. I completed it with all achievements (well, except the one achievement that's currently bugged) in a little under three hours, but I've played a lot of puzzle games. The price may seem high for the duration, but on the other hand, stop-motion animation is incredibly laborious, so I feel like it's fair to give some leeway for that, and I don't think it feels incomplete or needed to be more than what it is.

Well, let's see... yesterday, Bonny came over, Noelle came by, Jackie got scammed.

Bonny brought her new hip down the hall - her apartment is the farthest from mine. Her news to share was that probably Friday, her refrigerator quit. I cannot understand why she would not have noticed but by the time she did, stuff was warm, ice was melting and she tossed everything out - or rather the maintenance guys did. What a PIA.

Noelle returned the Chromebook I lent her and brought flowers which was a lovely thought but the flowers are ugly and now I have to wait until enough time has passed that the flowers will have died and then return her vase. I think I have a work around, though.

Jackie sent a series of emails yesterday which I finally figured out was a scam but it was the I don't know how to work Amazon so I need you to buy a gift card and send it to my friend, thing. The is pretty much exactly what Jackie would do but... she has tons of close friends and family and would never ask me. Plus her note said her friend was dying of ovarian cancer and it was her birthday. No mention of Mother's Day. And she said all the stores were closed so she couldn't just go by one. Finally about an hour later, Jackie sent a note around that she had been scammed.

Meanwhile, I was actually in the middle of an Amazon buying spree so that was weird. All of a sudden I'm out of stuff or I want stuff. I felt like I ordered stuff all weekend but, turns out, it wasn't quite that much. I do have returns that need to get to FedEx sometime this week.

I have learned to swim in the sun. When the blinds are down, in the mornings, and the Sun is strong, you still get the glare but I have decided not to let it bother me. This morning, it was a killer but I still had a wonderful swim.

I track my swim on my Pixel watch that feeds into Fitbit. My health insurance company pays for Fitbit Premium. Fitbit Premium wants me to sign up with a health coach and do all kinds of ridiculous things. I managed to turn most of it off but... I haven't figured out how to turn off the AI critique of my swim. And now I'm kind of addicted to it. I have a good swim and I enjoy it so whothefuckcares what Fitbit has to say about it??? Turns out, I do! And today I found myself swimming a little harder in the middle of my run just to see if the stupid AI would notice. Of course it did. hahahah

Also now on my radar is the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge Program. My $349 a month Wegovy bill will go to $50. And July 1 is coming right up. My latest order gives me enough pens to get to July 1. But, of course, I have zero confidence that 1. the program will happen and 2. if it does, it will work as boasted. My doctor is all over it so at least I know that if it happens, I'll be included. In about 4 weeks, I'll need to decide if I want to wait and bet on the program happening when and how they say it will or if I want to spend $350 to ensure I'm covered until we know.

No big plans for today - actually I should go make that Amazon run and I might.

(My friend, Martha, wears yellow Crocs often. Saturday she asked me to make her a doll 'with yellow Crocs with jibbits!')

Got almost everything planted today: Eggplant, Oca, Ulluco, Lemon Verbena, Flowering Tobacco, Sweet Annie, Holy Basil, Dahlia and a couple cultivars of Morning Glory. Hopefully, I'll get the rest in this week.
I still have one order that hasn't come in; my replacement Yacon. The wrong plant my last order(from another vendor), the Longevity Spinach is doing well.
The Canterbury Bells are covered with buds and the Autumn Sage is COVERED with blossoms and bees. Enjoying the cool Spring weather, since usually it's about a week or two between Winter and Summer;>!
Cheers,
Pat

some new stuff:

Love&Deepspace - I got the new five-star Xavier card (HOT!!), and now have played different parts of the game more, i'm still in the beginning stages of the main story and i don't want to rush it because it's so interesting. I've read a bit about the lore but now i wanna get more into it. I also wanna read more sci-fi romance now! 

The Testaments - American tv-series adaptation of Margaret Atwood's spinoff of The Handmaiden. The main role is played by the lovely Chase Infiniti<3 I've only watched a few episodes so far but they're so well made i don't feel like i need to binge watch. It's been a while since i've watched "quality tv" so i'm savoring it. 

The Drama (2026) - Ofc i had to watch the new Zendaya film. I knew nothing about it beforehand other than there's a wedding in the film and some mysterious drama. I'm not gonna spoil it but it's about a sensitive topic but it doesn't go that deep into it unfortunately(avoiding controversy?). It was interesting but not life changing. Zendaya and Robert Pattison were great in it though. There was one scene in the film I could relate to, something similar happened to me at a party too last weekend which i think was a funny coincidence, i might write about it more later.

I rarely vote for stuff but Enhypen and Le sserafim were nominated for AMAs so i also voted for PinkPantheress each time (she was nominated in 3 categories) she deserves to win!! Her album Fancy That was released year ago but it is still very much alive(idk how to say it better, sorry my English isn't working). I have the CD and I'm gonna get the LP for the remix album soon. Unfortunately she cancelled her concert at my country at this one music festival but i really hope she comes here for her own concert in the future.
