Time to Loot Turns Two
I did it again. I missed the blogiversary by a few days. But I also did it again in the sense of making it through another year of consistent blogging. Certainly, I posted less this year (I’ll get to the stats later) but I still haven’t...

Time to Loot Journal: December 2020
While undoubtedly we all know on an intellectual level that no arbitrary switch in date will bring with it immediate change for the better, there still seems to be a feeling of symbolic importance to the changing of the year. The ability to put the...

Time to Loot Journal: November 2020 (Five Game Challenge Day 30)
The stitches came out of my thumb earlier this evening. Just down to a more moderate looking wrap on it now too, so things are on the up and up I reckon- looking less like a mummy each day. Then tomorrow — fingers crossed; as this is by no...

Time to Loot Journal: October 2020
What a month! Between wife breaking her ankle and the new PC developing a distaste for my 3080 and requiring an RMA, on top of all the usual business at home and work, it’s been quite the busy one. Not much of an update on my wife’s...

Time to Loot Journal: September 2020
It’s hard to believe we’re so far through the year. Just three months remain before we flip 2020 the bird and put it firmly in the rear view. Yet as hard as it is to conceive of how little of 2020 remains… It’s also been...

Time to Loot Journal: July 2020
July is over. August is here! Normally — it would be the time of Blaugust. And it still is, in a manner of speaking, but we also did classic Blaugust earlier in the year as Blapril. So rather than a repeat, Blaugust this year is a...

Time to Loot Journal: June 2020
I just took a quick scan through my previous Journal-style posts, and it would appear this is the first time I’ve posted one on the 2nd of the month. Previously it has always been on either the final day of the month or the first day of the...

Time to Loot Journal: May 2020
New Zealand has seen at least the promise of a return to normalcy this month. We’ve run a consecutive streak of 9 days with no new cases. There is in fact only 1 active known case in the country. While there is still an acknowledgement that...

Blapril 2020 in the Rear View
Alright, not quite in the rear view. We still have until Saturday, and I’ll certainly be aiming to keep up the cadence of daily posts until then. Within the timeframe of Blapril (March 29th through to May 9th) this will be my 39th post. If I...

Fixing The Comments by Removing ‘Luv
A bit of a short one today. Recently Quietschisto brought to my attention a problem that I am now certain has existed a long time. Probably since very shortly after setting up last year in fact. It was pretty well invisible to me as from my side...

Top Five Least Viewed Posts
Every coin has its flip side, and so too does this. If we covered the top five most viewed posts yesterday, then it must be time to look now at the least viewed. Certainly that’s what the originator of this now blogger meme — SDWeasel...

Time to Loot Journal: Blapril 2020
While not something I’m going to dwell on — I think I will at least acknowledge that the COVID-19 lockdown is finally getting to me. Not in any serious, major ways. Rather just I note that my motivation levels are down, with each day...
