hot take
I wanna get some t-shirts printed with this on them.

This is the ultimate closing bracket. It counts as one character and closes precisely all open brackets.

I call it my Ultimate 'Thesis.

It is "pronounced like the sound of a heavy car door closing - ka-CLUNK.". The integral full stop is mandatory. (hat-tip @Fruan)

This photo may not look like much but the fact I can share it on Mastodon is the true marvel.

It was taken with my 2DS. That was a challenge in and of itself: bright day, dimly-lit screen, oddly-placed cameras. Also the ImageShare servers for sharing photos have been killed off, so I've had to track down and use a replacement run by an enthusiast.

I then had two minutes to scramble to download the picture before it was auto-deleted.

Anyway, enjoy this low res picture of a beetle. :)

Figured out how to keep my party equipment in order for my .hack playthrough!
I'm *pretty* sure this is false advertising… anyone wanna find out?

Wow, this line from Kapp'n sure hits differently after my final trip to the Southern Islands.

Rest in peace Nintendo Network. You were a janky mess of exploits and trolls.

And tomorrow, when I go to the Southern Islands and nobody's there... I'm gonna miss you.

Hopefully @pretendo will come to my rescue eventually. :)

Here's what it looks like after it's been frozen in a reusable plastic tub. This is basically two meals, or one if you're really hungry.
