animal crossing friends: i finally figured out how to scan QR codes in the Switch phone app and upload designs to AC! if you’re looking for codes, check this out https://youtu.be/C7Q-cLDRMCA (put youtube in high quality, change playback speed to .25x, pause when you see one you like)

this is a reminder that if you’re doing social distancing properly and starting to feel congested it might be allergies.

(i recognize that being able to work from home is an enormous privilege.) working from home constantly has made me aware of an interesting thing: i am only ever alone when i'm commuting, or when i'm in the bathroom. i don't miss my 100+ mi r/t commute. but i miss some solitude.

if you have a teacher in your life, thank them :) then teach them about downsampling HD video from their phones to 720p or 480p, and using services like youtube instead of google drive.

do you ever just kinda wander around the house and putter and think of all the projects/chores you could/should be doing and then you realize it’s 4 in the afternoon and you haven’t really accomplished anything and you don’t want to start anything now?

has anyone else noticed this? the Netflix iOS app has started giving me notifications, and i can find no place in the app’s settings page to manage those.
(yes my next course of action is to disable that app’s ability to send me any notifications, even ones i’ve asked for).

try and guess when my team switched to a build tool that authenticates through github and therefore would have access to my personal repos, so i had to create another account to use just for work.

sometimes i wish i lived in a city. when i went places i would be surrounded by people.
i wouldn’t talk to any of them, of course. good golly no. but they would be there.

the country is really divided right now, but there is one thing we can all agree on: trading Mookie Betts is probably the 2nd worst decision the Red Sox ever made.
