What watching the W with me is like
i love watching sports with other women. they will never mansplain to me like i don’t know the sport. instead they do something i can only describe as investigative journalism. giving all the background info about their team, the players, & their personal superstitions

In today’s edition of using Claude for fun stuff: was craving an ad-free, old-school version of Tetris that I could play full screen on my laptop and that would port easily to share with husband, and Claude spun it up in about 20 minutes total.
