  1. Sometimes you do things that aren’t very bright. Like call a cop Sparky, or pick a rattlesnake up by the noisy end. Or ya know, put a big blue blob you didnt plan on appearing in a painting. These things happen. And when I say you, of course, I mean me.

    In other news, I got a few minutes to work on my painting. 🤣🤷🏻‍♀️🥳

  6. 🚨BREAKING: Software engineers discover bugs exist in their codebase! 🎉 After a week of bug-hunting, they are shocked—shocked, I say—to learn their roadmap wasn't paved with 189 "Oopsies" all along. Nothing says "progress" like finally realizing your app shouldn't crash on Tuesdays! 🤦‍♂️✨

  9. 🚀🎩 Ah, the magical realm of #Next.js, where "oopsies" are as mysterious as the Bermuda Triangle and logging is as transparent as a brick wall. 🌪️🧙‍♂️ Our valiant blogger finally overcame the Herculean task of starting a blog—only to discover that Next.js might require a PhD in divination for basic #troubleshooting. 📜🔍

  10. I have two different microsoft identities, one for work and one for personal purposes.

    I just finished my responses to my editor... in the wrong account.

    So I did what any summer scholar does: I apologized, explained the mix-up, and sent in all the marked changes under the wrong identity. They're grown-ups, they can sort it out...

  11. I started on a Star of Hell's Horses and three Points of Jade Falcons to wrap up the multi-year Clan Invasion loot. In my haste I accidentally painted the Crossbow in the wrong gang 😅 "Oho".

    The fifth horsie was to be an old IWM Nova coming for a repaint. So I'll keep on fixing my own endless cockups, as usual. I painted them with a dark grey + drop of blue over black primer, hoping it'd work with the hot rod flames 🤔 We'll see how it goes soonish.

  12. TIL...

    There's a really odd sort of internal embarrassment that comes over you when you see a little breadcrumb, say, "That's not right, but it's a global publication"; you reach for the google and swing by the University of Michigan.

    For a moment, denial. Then, a bit shaken, you realize, ... "I've been doing all wrong my entire life!"

    > "An ellipsis ( ... ) consists of three evenly spaced periods and is used to indicate the omission of words or suggest an incomplete thought. In general, an ellipsis should be treated as a three-letter word, with a space, three periods and a space. (Western Michigan University is ... nationally recognized and internationally engaged.)

    > Never delete words that are central to the original meaning. Do not use ellipses at the beginning or end of direct quotes when writing a news story.

    > Other guidelines and examples

    > When the words before an ellipsis make up a complete sentence, place a period before the ellipsis. (Western Michigan University is a student-centered research university. ... )

    > When the phrase preceding an ellipsis calls for a question mark, exclamation point, comma or colon, the correct order is: phrase, punctuation mark, space, ellipsis, space, next phrase. (What is a healthy university? ... The ability to think beyond our individual and limited view.)"

    So... Strike that. So, ... There's always a space before the ellipsis, yet no grammar checker has ever gigged me for that, reinforcing the belief I had been doing it right for all these decades :/

    You learn something new everyday - for me, this one was a doozy.
