I used to enjoy April Fools but I haven’t been able to for years and unfortunately find it a day of frustration now.
I just realized I didn’t encounter any tricks this year. I’m thinking part of that is I’m spending a lot of my time on services I host so less chances for others to add the tricks.
It feels like rain on my roof. April Fool’s disruptions happening outside of the space I’ve made while my life can continue as I like inside, undisrupted.


The only April fools joke I really encountered yesterday was modded Minecraft refused to launch until I changed the date to today. Too bad I didn’t figure it out until late in the day and my kid was upset they didn’t get to play because the stupid thing stopped loading right before the main menu
