There’s no in-joke here. I just really want a burger right now. Stuff time! ## Interesting Stuff ### I’m not a robot Oh yeah? [Prove it](https://neal.fun/not-a-robot/#0109780f-05ee-4834-a694-f721d991f47f) ### The Library of Time It’s the time and calendar, running across tons of different formats. The creator describes it as an attempt to create “[the ultimate Temporal Rosetta Stone](https://libraryoftime.xyz/?mc_cid=6215c9553f),” which I agree with. Very cool! ## Planted Recently [[Cladun X3]] Normally I would just put this under the Media Corner, but I wrote enough about the newest **Cladun** to give it some space here. I love these games and think the newest is the best of them yet. If you like making number go up and customizing characters in minute detail before sending them dungeon crawling, then definitely check it out! ## Media Corner ### Games - **Cladun X3** - [[Hades II]] - **Borderlands 4** ### TV/Film - **Hood JJK** - If you know you know, if you don’t don’t worry about it - **Fresh Prince of Bel-Air** ### Books - [[Delicious in Dungeon]] ### Music - **Daemon X Machina Titanic Scion OST** - Rio Hamamoto - **New PANTY & STOCKING with GARTERBELT OST** - Taku Takahashi & TeddyLoid - **No.II** - Number_i - **Guitar Cover Collection from SQEX Music Channel** - Square Enix Music - **Real Racing Roots** - Andrew Elmore - **JANE DOE** - Kenshi Yonezu & Hikaru Utada - You don’t want to know how many times I’ve listened to this damn single y’all ## Status Update I just crossed the 50k word count mark for the story I’ve been writing. I now wake up in the morning…excited? About writing it? Which is not the norm for pretty much anything I do in life, let alone creative work, lol. So that’s been a pleasant change of pace! I feel pretty proud of it and am excited to build and flesh it out more. I’m even looking forward to follow-up drafts. I’ve written two previous first drafts for stories before this one, and they both sucked. I don’t even say that in a negative way, that’s just the virtue of doing things for the first time. They paved the way for the work I’m putting into this story. I don’t plan to run down a publisher or anything — I’ve seen the direction that industry has gone and don’t need that stress on my spirit. But as my put my goal of [[Valuing My Art in 2026|valuing my art in 2026]] into practice, I’ll probably do something more official with it? We’ll see! ## Signing Off Hope y’all are having a relaxing Sunday.
