Freedom
(from Thud!)
"Who tipped you off?"
"I just do zer pictures, Commander", said Otto, looking up with a hurt expression. "Anyway, I couldn't tell you even if I knew, because of zer Freedom of zer Press."
"Freedom to pour oil on a flame, d'you mean?" Vimes demanded.
"Zat's freedom for you", said Otto. "No-vun said it was nice".

Guess the game from 1 second of music
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGbXxZtzPdw. I got Hollow Knight and Yakuza right away. That's enough for me.

Door curtain
When I first moved in, I just wanted something "up and running" and as soon as possible. So I went with cheap hooks with sticky tape on the back and hung the door curtain up with like 10 of them. The curtain itself is rather light, so they held on quite well. For seven months. That's when they started to drop one by one.
Finally got an extendable (bathroom shower?) curtain rod that can hang on the side walls without drilling. Technically better than cheap hooks, but let's see how long it lasts.

Permanent Resident woot woot
It was granted a while back. Took two weeks to book an appointment for bio stuff. A week and a half for the card to arrive. The card is only three years though. Better than two years I guess.

That's it. Game over!
I finished hard on the easiest song in Rift of the NecroDancer (and rank C, not the worst rank D). I can never be better than this. It's done!
For clarification, this comes from a guy who only plays easy and still has difficult with the bottom half of the songs. And struggle with medium. Hard was never even on the "plan".

I listened to music for 30 minutes without a drop of alcohol!
To be fair, too full after dinner to have anything else...

Rift of the NecroDancer scares me
My experience with Yakuza's karaoke might have made be overconfident. The game starts with calibration both audio and video cues. And I thought it was just a matter of pressing at roughly the right time. Third song, they already throw multiple key presses at the same time (but not all start and end at the same time!)
This game may have been too much for my green rhythm game experience.
Edit: best so far is rank 492 with "Ultra Creepy" on Easy. It's probably not going to get any better.
