Either I heard about Nekoweb yet totally forgot, or I'm learning about it for the first time 🥹 Either way, thanks a lot for letting me know via your post. Nekoweb might be the best place for my personal site which I have plans to create this year 🔥

Cloud-Paradise (1990) [movie]

I recently watched Cloud-Paradise (1990)—an arthouse'ish, bittersweet dramedy that defies Soviet-era clichés with wit, warmth, and unexpected brilliance. Here's my gonzo review of it:

Katana Zero, Harold Halibut, Anna's Obsession, Chasing Static [offhand]

Katana Zero, Harold Halibut, Anna's Obsession, Chasing Static
= a failed clone, a slow-burner, one cliché-ridden debut, and a horror that fizzles out

Psycho Goreman (2020) [movie]

a gory, absurd, tokusatsu-style sci-fi comedy with zero morals and 100% chaotic joy. Cursed in the best possible way

NOKIA 7250 | Liquid DnB / Jungle Mix (2025) [music]

A bunch of DnB producers brought back my 2002 with its PS1/PS2 vibes with that mix. Outstanding.

Panelki (2022) [game]

a bleakly humorous indie game about janitorial work, existential dread, and the dream of escaping small-town in the middle of nowhere. As I made such a dream come true in my life, I found this game pretty sweet

Indika (2024) [game]

As Lynch'esque it is, as much it delivers as a good alternative comedy, wrapped in a form of a fable. Add to this the variety of mechanics and you'll get a one-of-a-kind game.

John Dies at the End (2012) [movie]

A surreal sci-fi comedy-horror trip that melted my brain in a good way so I kept laughing.

Avowed (2025) [game]

Someone who rarely sticks with a game for more than 12 hours got sucked in for 70. Hell, Avowed really had some magic — with ingredients that are pure Obsidian: solid writing and tech mastery.

Frail Whale — found... (2025) [music]

A mish-mash of hip-hop, house, and experimental. A fusion that, like a conscious being, found me for one purpose — to deliver.

Phantasm (1979) [movie]

Serial Cleaners (2022) [game]

Thx a lot, Rob 🙏 and yes, glad to meet you. Subscribed to your account here. I'm not new to fiction whatsoever (been writing short fiction for the last 15'ish years), but my knowledge/skills have never been systematic, so I def can learn from you.

"Such editors take on more of a mentoring role as the writer makes such changes."

Ok, I'm officially sold 🤩 Sounds just like the approach that usually works best for me. When it's time for my long-ever-suffering book, I guess I'll ask for your services 🙏
