Sorted by location-ish. I tried to reduce the list to places I think are good for visitors vs. my absolute favorites, but I put a section at the bottom for places that may not be for everyone.

Breakfast / Brunch

Toki Restaurant (Downtown)

580 SW 12th Ave

My order: Grilled mackerel breakfast with a bloody mary. Their Dalgona coffee is quite good too.

How to get in touch with your emotions

I wanted to share something I've learned in the course of therapy that I felt might benefit others. Specifically, I'd like to share how to better listen to one's emotions.

Why should we do this?

You might wonder why would we want to be in better touch with our emotions. One reason why is that everybody builds a metaphor or narrative for themselves

	# spotify_focuser.applescript
	# An AppleScript script that decreases Spotify volume while you're not using work related apps and websites.
	# by Samuel Mortenson

	# To install, download this script and open it in Script Editor, then select File > Export and export the script as an Application with "Stay open after run handler" checked. Now you can run the exported Application and GET BACK TO WORK!
	# You shouldn't normally run random AppleScript or give it permissions, so uh read the code first before doing something dumb.

	# Other notes:
	# - Volume is only changed when a song is playing
	# - Volume does not change while Spotify is open, to stay neutral about whether or not that is work related

	THIS GIST IS OUT OF DATE! Please use my new project template here to get started with Zig on Playdate:

	The rest of this is preservied for historical reasons:


	This is a small snippet of some code to get you started for developing for the Playdate on Zig. This code should be used as a starting point and may not compile without some massaging. This code has only been tested out on macOS and you'll need to modify the addSharedLibrary() portion of build.zig to output a .dll or .so instead of a .dylib, depending on you platform.

	This code will help you produce both an executable for the Playdate simulator and also an executable that actually run on the Playdate hardware.
