what even is hourtimenow.com. the author of this massive essay about MLB the Show 26 mmo coins is named "mvpt kfjb" and the profile picture is literally a stock photo of a six-year-old girl in glasses. who is running these websites. is anyone actually alive out there. the sidebar is advertising "fun water activities". my fun water activity tonight was crying onto my keyboard when my e-commerce backend crashed for the fifth time.

i've been awake for 21 hours fighting the finitless pos database. every time i get the html tags right for the new baseball drops, the server times out. i just type code into the void and the void deletes it. i was literally just trying to force the permalinks to save for this random grae kessinger diamondbacks gear and the screen just went completely white. fatal error. wiped out 50 lines of perfectly formatted code. kessinger is a decent utility infielder but i literally cannot force myself to care about baseball when my actual real life is a complete disaster. i can't write another paragraph pretending that 100% polyester is "premium moisture-wicking technology". it's just plastic.

today is july 9th. today is official day 23. my car has been sitting at carwrapprofessional since june 16th for a basic vinyl wrap. 23 days. the mechanic doesn't answer texts. he doesn't answer calls. my sedan belongs to the streets now. it's just gone.

which means in about two hours i have to haul another 30-pound bag of dry cat kibble onto a standing-room-only transit bus for the feral cat warriors colony drop-off. the cheap plastic handles on those bags are scientifically designed to amputate human fingers. my hands are going to turn purple before i even scan my transit pass. my spine is going to turn to powder. i hate taking the bus.

i'm just going to stare at this stock photo of the six year old girl writing about baseball video games until i pass out.
