My goal for using #Shenhe as a #Qiqi buff in #GenshinImpact has been achieved. Qiqi is once again my 2nd highest damage dealer (just a little behind Raiden Shogun's half million hit). I'm not going to see substantially better results without either a completely different build or an entirely reworked combo.

Almost done building Shenhe as a Qiqi buff and got a new personal best Qiqi burst without food (better than with food and without Shenhe). Hoping to get it over 400K with food before switching Qiqi to Lavawalker for another boost.

The cat has had her nap and is now requesting belly rubs.

Today I noticed that one of the grocery stores is stocking off brand Girl Scout cookies (they're not the same, but they look the same, significantly cheaper and close enough).

I was trying to work out a new combo for my burst Qiqi to see if I could work Shenhe into that. Instead I ended up with Qiqi's elemental skill (not burst) landing a 6 figure hit (no food and Shenhe's build isn't even finished yet, but there's still a lot of buff stacking going on to land that hit).

The cat has decided that tonight she wants to be a back rest. It's not the first time she's done this, but she doesn't do that often.

The cat is insisting on doing her job as the lap cat, so I guess I'm done moving for today.

Old low effort meme comment is up over 200 likes, most of them within the last couple hours. Kind of wish the notifications got collapsed into an x people recently liked your comment instead of making every single like its own notification.

The grocery run was mostly for cat food, but there were some good sales on human foods so I hit those.

Algorithmic comment re-ordering is weird. I go out for groceries and when I get back some week old meme post that got bumped to the top is flooding my notifications.

@rgegriff I don't think I would play this myself, but I could totally see myself watching some VTuber playing it.

Business was on the slow side during the event as we needed to shut down the seating area due to COVID cases being higher than they've ever been locally, but we ended up raising $823 for the food bank. It was $803, but there was a customer while I was updating staff and she tossed another $20 in the box.

The cat thinks I should spend less time writing software and more time petting the cat. I'm doing some work from home days this week so she's seeing more of me than usual.

Note to self: never read the comments on news sites. (why do news sites even have comment sections?)

The cat needed a hug this morning.

My shop is once again closing the seating area. Hate to do it, but with case and hospitalization levels where they are it would be irresponsible not to.
