5.21.23 || If I were to call someone "the u-word," would that be considered offensive? I don't actually mean calling them any words that start with the letter U, I mean literally calling them "the u-word," verbatim. This question is all the more puzzling since I don't even know what the "u-word" could possibly mean in the first place. /hj
5.19.23 || After some experimentation and feedback, I will continue to use tone tags this week, but I may not necessarily use one in every single comment or forum post. I'll have to identify when a message of mine could be misinterpreted, and then use a tone tag there.
5.18.23 || I was encouraged to use tone tags in everything I post for a week, so I'll try that. My rules: (1) Every comment or forum post on Scratch must correctly use a tone tag. (2) Tone tags aren't required in Scratch projects. (3) Do not use tone tags when replying to users who have explicitly stated that they do not like reading tone tags. (4) It is not required to use a tone tag in a comment that simply states a correct definition or computation. ... More rules may be added as needed. /srs

5.16.23 || Two sound effects that I unintentionally learned how to create while composing my upcoming song are (1) the "throw" sound from Super Mario Bros. 2, and (2) the sound my fridge back home makes when you leave the door open for too long.
5.15.23 || the mighty cocuiria demands fear
5.14.23 || A question that I wish someone would ask me: "What is the worst Scratch suggestion you have ever seen?"
5.12.23 || Did you know: There's a *new* Scratch Cat 2023 T-Shirt available in the Scratch Store!
5.10.23 || Sometimes I wonder about what life is like in other countries. For example, have people in the United Kingdom invented headphones yet? I guess there's no way that I could know for sure...
5.8.23 || World record time between me finishing the instrumental of a song and recording the vocals despite the fact that I've been alone in my apartment for the past 5 days. Hopefully I'll be able to do some recording tomorrow!
5.5.23 || I have never played Persona 5, nor do I intend to anytime soon. I want to listen to some Persona 5 music, but I have no idea where to start, what sounds good, or when the music plays in-game. If you play Persona 5 and you know some good music I should look up, let me know! Tell me the name of the theme and generally when it plays. (For example: "Last Surprise" - normal battle theme.)
5.4.23 || Things you don't know about me:
5.3.23 || May the third be with you!
5.2.23 || Here's what I was going to write yesterday: I took an exam purely for fun; it doesn't matter if I pass the exam or not. I thought the exam was actually pretty fun. Hopefully a good ending to the algebraic topology saga.
