TSE:ATA is up 16% today, whoop whoop.

[Bumber]

Finished the last challenge (200 online matches) last night in Smash Ultimate.
124/124 challenges (no hammers used)
1303/1303 spirits (all max level)

There are some random milestones I haven't achieved (e.g., play an 8-player smash,) but I've basically 100%ed the game.

Edit: I haven't unlocked online Elite Smash because I'm not good enough competitively, but whatever.

Snipped the teeth off a camp saw, they shot across the room alarmingly, but I finally got the blank flat and  proceeded to cut big scary teeth into what I'm calling Yoda now.

I've decided where I want my first tattoo, and what I want it to be. After all the agonizing, it turned out to be really simple. I want an ankh-an ancient symbol of the power to give life-over the spot where my port is currently, the implant that lets me get chemotherapy.

The bad news is that it'll be several months before I can have the port removed, and then up to a year and a half before the scar is healed enough to receive a tattoo in that area without distorting it. But it's something to look forward to, and it'll be a nice way to cap off and commemorate the whole experience in a positive way.

Had sushi last night. It's been... I'm not sure how many months since I last ate fish. It's a little difficult when you're living with someone who is catastrophically traumatized by seafood, but she's apparently decided that sushi is healthy, and so has started looking for non-fish alternatives in order to introduce a bit more healthy dining into the diet.

Luckily, there's a sushi spot down the way that had a few different vegetarian rolls, plus some chicken/duck options, so we ordered from there. I mean, the folks running the place aren't Japanese, and it's still sushi so it's still bloody expensive, but I like the change of pace... I mean, I grew up with homemade nori rolls and a lot of vegetarian cooking, so this is all very welcome.


This is all actually a bit strange, as she tends to avoid soy products whenever possible... She's not allergic, but she's got a thyroid condition and is therefore trying to cut down on all things soya. But apparently that's taken a back seat to Healthy Sushi Living™, at least according to the tofu rolls dipped in soy sauce last night...


A minor negative is that they have unagi on the menu, and I can't in good conscience eat the stuff even though it's my favorite... Curse you, unsustainable fishing practices!

...the tofu rolls dipped in soy sauce last night...

Bruh. I'm salivating. 😍

I was waiting at a long busy intersection, and noticed the couple in the car in front of me started mussing each other's hair.  For like a full minute.
It was v cute.

[Yoink]

At least I have ice cream and beer.

Haha, thanks. 🍻
I had a burger, also.

Kagus and I have lived extremely different lives. I grew up eating any animal that couldn't outrun my dad's poacher friend. And whatever we could barely afford from the market. I mostly grew up on spaghetti, Hamburger Helper, Mac'n'cheese, and random poached critterflesh. Salads and vegetables weren't exactly a luxury but most of the time the veggies/fruit was canned if we didn't grow it ourselves. (We had a phenomenal zucchini harvest one summer. We ate that zucchini for nearly a year in every possible format you can imagine. Fried, baked, boiled, ground in with burger meat, bread. Zucchini bread is a thing and it's delicious.)

Which has led me to deeply love both good meat products and homegrown vegetables. Dat garden yo.

[Rolan7]

Can confirm, zucchini bread is great.  My mom makes low-sugar zucchini brownies which are a lot better than they sound.

Haha, thanks. 🍻
I had a burger, also.

Nature's cakes

[Kagus]

Y'know, I'm honestly kind of a shitty new-ager... I don't actually like zucchini.

Like, fuck, hit me with that steamed kale and all; but point your squashes and your zucchinis at someone else.

[itisnotlogical]

My ma makes some sort of fried cake thing out of shredded zucchini and cheese. It's dope.

A friend of mine landed a full ride through college, after much angst about whether they'd be able to pay their way through even year one.
