Post a perfect album from the 90's that isn't Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, or Alice in Chains.
My wife is from southern California and basically never saw rain. When we moved to the midwest I made fun of her for always saying "the clouds are incredible!" Now that I'm 41 I'm looking through my old photos and realizing the clouds really _are_ kind of awesome

That's a wrap on #AdventOfCode 2025! 🎉🎅 I loved the 12-day length. It felt achievable & this is the first year I finished. I did almost every puzzle without loading packages. Tell your friends next time they say R isn't a "real" programming language. 😝 Amazing job @was.tl and thanks for the joy!
