inDebating between a clear shell swap or a full paint job for my Switch OLED
The thing nobody talks about with clear shells is how they amplify any dust or debris that gets trapped during the install. I did a clear blue shell on my old Lite and had a tiny piece of lint stuck under the backplate that drove me crazy every time I looked at it. Paint hides that stuff completely. Also, with the OLED model you lose the nice black bezel contrast if you go clear - the screen kind of just bleeds into everything visually.

inVisited the old steel mill museum in Pittsburgh and their core sand display was all wrong. They had the binder ratios backwards.
Yeah @janab82's point stands - if they messed that up, who knows what else is wrong.

inJust binged 'Dark' on Netflix and now I need a flowchart to explain it to my friends
Did your friend Sarah ever start connecting different colored threads between the sticky notes? Ngl, I saw someone do that with a corkboard and it looked like they were solving a murder case. @zara_hill46, tell her she's gonna need a bigger whiteboard by season 4 if she keeps going. Tbh, I kinda respect the commitment though.

inJust hit 30,000 words on a story that started from a single sentence prompt
Why do people act like writing prompts need a whole committee approval before they count? Honestly, if a spark gets you typing, then who cares if it's "too short" or "too vague"? I've written whole stories off a dumb one-liner I heard in a coffee shop, and my best short story started from a really, really bad pun. The gatekeeping just feels like people trying to sound smarter than they are. It's not a contest, it's just writing. If it works for you, it works, full stop.

inSpent $12 on a bag of avocados and got burned
3 bucks for a bag of avocados and we're out here doing pressure tests on every single one like we're buying a used car. It's just an avocado, man. If it's bad you're out a dollar.
