Also it was just incredible. 10/10 no notes. He’s literally me amaze amaze amaze etc etc

I think one thing that was amazing about Project Hail Mary is that it just felt great to watch a high budget film that hadn’t been garbled through the IP nostalgia extraction machine a dozen times

Been getting into porridge lately

I want to get to painting outside more this month but sometimes the weather disagrees with me

The reason Moby Dick is the most American novel ever written is because it is about a violent white man enacting a confusing revenge fantasy against a cheap source of oil.

Why does the internet make it feel like every hobby has to be a collecting hobby now

With hiking, it’s about your hiking fits of expensive branded gear. Online journaling spaces seem obsessed with getting all the right stuff to fit the pristine aesthetic. Even knitting/crochet can sometimes seem to be about people’s yarn hauls and stashes

Does anyone else notice how many online space dedicated to hobbies have become intensely about consumerism? I want to hear how you’re using your journals/notebooks, not your massive collection of unused collector’s editions >:(

That’s amazing, and it’s such a lovingly and thoroughly researched game, too! Tassing felt so alive. When I finished the game I stared emptily at my screen for like half an hour in awe.

Dragon Age Inquisition mentioned💕

If you ask me about any of these games, it’ll probably trigger a 15 minute unskippable dialogue (especially Pentiment)

Onfim’s drawing of himself on horseback as a warrior defeating an enemy.

Two of Onfim’s works. On the left is a copy of a passage from the Book of Psalms he did for schoolwork. On the right is an apparently autobiographical depiction of a monster labeled with “I am a wild beast.”

Some more spelling practice by Onfim with some human figures who have round heads and varying numbers of fingers on their big hands.

Onfim’s writing practice accompanied by 7 little people in his particular drawing style, who tend to have very big hands with many fingers.

Nice AI-image-generating tool, but it will never be as great an artist as Onfim, a child who lived in the Novgorod Republic in the mid-1200s and who scribbled these drawings and schoolwork writings on birch bark at the age of 6 or 7.

Huge congrats on the reveal!! 👏🫶 Looks amazing!

Going to be riding the high of being one of the few to raise my hand when the room was asked how many people have read Moby Dick for a while btw

Life is short go to your local sea shanty festival

I hit GOLD in my local secondhand bookshop today. This was £3! 🤯🤯

I really really dislike it when a recipe assumes I own a stand mixer

“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. “At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”

I love London, best city in the world, forever grateful I get to spend my 20s so near to it. But I am also Oxford Street’s biggest hater

Yesss!!! Congrats!!

play pentiment 🫵

I’ve been wanting to play it for yearssss but never had the chance to, I’m only 15 hours in so far but just really digging it

I won a Switch 2 in a raffle last month (🤯) and it’s my first Nintendo anything ever, so I’ve got a lot of catching up to do over here

8 years late but god damn Breath of the Wild is amazing

"there are no third spaces anymore" wrong. blast furnace

One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”
