So I play Stardew Valley on the phone and on my iPad usually, and am used to some things that are phone app only. But now I’ve bought a Switch lite, I’ve also installed the game there, and boy oh boy, it’s an adjustment. The main thing is that the phone app automagically switches tools and the Switch app doesn’t....

You do not need to leave your room. Remain sitting at your table and listen. Do not even listen, simply wait, be quiet, still and solitary. The world will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked, it has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet.~ Franz Kafka

A stack of paper, folded, with the words to the project I’m discussing in the post This cobbled together document (printed on one of those A4 thermal printers because who wants to pay for ink these days) is something that lived in my notes app for many years.
