I made myself a bee weapon set with a bee sword and a bee shield in TOTK and tried it out on a black bokoblin camp with an aerocuda and oh my god i think i invented a whole new war crime.
Every time i swung my sword: bees. Every time my shield was struck: bees. Bees. Bees everywhere, biting everyone. Monsters falling dead from the sky from bees. Monsters flying off platforms to land on the ground with ANGRY, ANGRY bees following their parabola in perfect unison. Bees. BEEEEEEES

Paramount+ has some pretty decent stuff on it, but holy shit, do I hate not only its UI, but that some shows don't have subtitles even though it does. I was watching Catfish on Stan but it's not there anymore so decided to watch on Paramount+ and just... no subtitles.
(Also to preface, I'm hard of hearing, it's why I need subtitles, not that I have to defend myself but sometimes I do).
I forgot to buy pasta sauce and an onion yesterday.
I'm going out now.
If I do not return find me in the wind.
edit: headphones are the best earmuffs
Watching my place in the queue for a telehealth appointment on the HotDoc app go from 4th to 5th... who cut in line?!? Also I'm not entirely sure what the point of an appointment is when it's clearly going to be 30+ minutes later. Just give an hour window slot or something.
Update: it still said I was 5th in line when the doctor called me, only 15 minutes after my appointment time.
Midnight snack was a treat. And the bot did not miss a beat.
sausage roll over midnight It was patties so a bit shite
About to hit the hay The snacko did slay
I'm just glad it wasn't so bad.
Risotto was absolutely delicious. I normally add ham/bacon or diced chicken, this time I used some chicken mince. Plus mushrooms, pumpkin, dried tomatoes. Finished with a small amount of cream, parsley and parmesan. Tasted absolutely amazing.
Dinner is half way made. The rice with fruit and nuts is in the cooker. Mix for shemmy kebabs is made, just have to cook them. Might steam some vegies. Also have pumpkin soup ready made for starters.
It has been a long ass week
It's much warmer inside the train than it is outside the train
