Guys I caught myself weighing a bowl of marinade after taring my scale with another of the same bowl and then weighing an egg just to see if it would all fit in a certain size jar and I have to be honest I'm a huge nerd.

I don't have a great recommendation for that specifically unfortunately. The only think I can think that might be relevant is "Mindstorms" by Seymour Papert. I remember loving it but it's been decades since I read it and it's not nominally about games so take it with a big grain of salt!

Absolutely nothing would get done in my life until this was solved. After gaming out a few ideas, I think my first try would be to make a little lasso of string and drop it around the handle.

Little weeknight laser cutter project to get back in the swing of it — a little stand for this heavy die I was genuinely worried would put a dent in my floor.

Ideally, it's not sticking around to find out. In practice I think I'm probably paying 75% of the time, and I'd guess the correct play is half that.

Mogg War Marshal I learned this about myself recently.

Hear, hear. Make something real. Value something without scarcity. "Don't buy this poser shit."

I usually use firm tofu, but I am taking this as a challenge!

Did some good cooking this weekend: Jumping the gun on stew season a little but love a short rib stew, dan dan noodles, mapo tofu, and of course ramen is always in the rotation.
