Hey, it's been a while

Thank you 🙏

Yeah that’s the plan. I don’t want to risk not getting a refund if I wait too long. A few stores do seem get stock every now and then, I’ve just got to beat the bots that are buying them 😬

I gave it a couple of days to see if it’d magically sort itself out but it’s still broken. Argos have been told there’s no stock at all so all they can do is collect and refund 😭 https://mastodon.design/@marsh931/114648775121397663

I should be able to return it, but the retailer I got it from is out of stock atm so who knows when I’ll get a replacement

I don’t know, I noticed it during setup but it disappeared pretty quickly. Just been playing for an hour or so and it’s come back. It disappears occasionally but keeps coming back again :(

Ugh the screen on my Switch 2 is broken 😫

I’m going to the comic book shop and I’m gonna buy comics and Pokémon cards and there’s nothing you can do about it cos you have to be nice to me because it’s my birthday 😤

Strongly agree with this, I love seeing them 😊

2025-01-17 10:43:40 GMT

Ok, Go off

Yeah I’ve found collecting cards most fun so far, although I did enjoy quite a bit of success with a Pikachu EX deck 🤭 I’m excited to try out some new decks from this new set though

Oh nice! I had a similar situation with the immersive Charizard 😅 I rarely battle tbh 😬

lol thanks 😆 I think I’ve used up all of my luck for next year!

Pulled the immersive art Celebi EX on my third pack of Mythical Island 🥹 so glad I saved up so many hourglasses for the new pack launch

Yeah same, I'm definitely a hypocrit - I want to see designers posting about design stuff, but I don't post anything myself 😂

I’ve accidentally curated my feed to quite dev-heavy content so likewise would like to see more design talk 😅

Oh that certainly helps! I had a few teachers like that too 😊 yeh makes a big difference when the whole group is into it as well.
Thanks for the suggestions, I’ll see if I can find them 😊

Aw nice, sounds like a great teacher!

I went to a local board game night yesterday and it was so much fun 🥹🥹 None of my friends are into board games so the best I've had up until now is cramming in as many as I can with family at Christmas but even that's a struggle 😅

I’ve been enjoying Marvel Snap for that very reason - it’s quite easy to enjoy without spending much (any) money at all - so I’m hoping Pokémon take note!

2024-08-22 14:33:34 GMT

I can’t wait to see all the unusual UI that Pokémon throws into this. I swear whenever I use Pokémon Go or Home on iOS it feels like I’m using a completely different device from anything I’m used to

Ah fair enough. I’m still new to all this so I’m slowly learning things as I go. I’ve somehow found a solution although I’m not 100% clear on how I got there 😅

2024-08-14 10:25:46 GMT

11ty folks, am I being awkward by wanting to keep blog post images in a folder alongside the markdown post, rather than keeping all images in a single folder at the root?
I’ve not yet found a way to get the images to display unless they’re in a single root folder but to me it just seems messy to have years worth of images all stored in a single folder?

I’ve also finally got around to adding my comics collection to my website
