    No problem! I also hadn't read it in ages before checking it out a while back and it was a shock, especially after the period where it was extremely feminist for a while.

    Just a quick warning for anyone considering Sinfest: The early strips contain a fair amount of very outdated racial humor that can be offensive, and the latest strips have leaned hard on alt-right content and transphobia.

    There were a few decently solid years in the middle, but it's quite a minefield as far as webcomics go.

    Sleepless Domain is fantastic! Agree with avoiding the character page before reading. All I'll say is it is a deconstruction of many tropes, but as the author says on Discord, it's not Madoka!

    This is mine as well. Just divine on crackers and it goes really well with honeycomb if you're doing a grazing board!

    I've been working on a baby blanket for a friend that's expecting. Using a slightly different blanket yarn than usual (Bernat Baby vs ordinary blanket). So far it's holding up nicely!

    I'll have to check it out! I play on Switch but also have a copy sitting in my Steam library, so I could always start a second farm for all the mods. Hoping against hope that if that Iridium Scythe tweet pans out, we get the update for Switch as well.

    I finally bit the bullet and started playing Stardew Valley. It really does hit the same vibe as the early Harvest Moon (now Story of Seasons) games - I haven't been as fond of the new entries and was looking for something new rather than just playing the remakes they're doing now. One of the enjoyable things is that there's a blend of mechanics and a lot of easter eggs and secrets, so it doesn't get stale like some of the older farming games do.
