Ah jeez, I think I’m coming down with a cold. Or I feel like crap because I haven’t slept well over the past few days (my own dumbass fault). So I guess we’ll see tomorrow how I’m doing. It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these and it’s going to probably be missing a lot of stuff from the last week or two because things were a mess for a moment. But I like doing these because I get very excited about the internet existing outside a handful of social media websites and Discord.
