love to see cat for the holiday
NEW ARTICLE! NEW ARTICLE!!
Ever wonder ~why~ so many Western stories about samurai all tell you a story about someone who really, really, really likes honor? Where did that come from? And why is it so pervasive? What are samurai movies really about?

second movie in my Werner Herzog arc, The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser, is really fucking good. a new fav for sure
basically done with Haunted Lands, it owns so darn much
not the ending i expected for csm, but still really darn good. the light elements of sameness in a completely different world, the way certain differences are highlighted, the idea of this as an ending at all. its so great. really is one of the best comics out there
NieR: Automata, a game I got to the other month, owns. I was especially brought in by the way it tackles the self and what control we have over it.

now that was some good payoff to the build-up chainsaw man has been doing. this really is one of the best, and theres still more, ACK!!
rewatched Fleabag, still really good. love the end of the first season leading into the attempt of bettering of herself not making everything all good, it just being a start where she regresses and still has to live with past mistakes until the final moment where she truly goes on this journey
decided to take a break from the current project. but its in a playable enough state so why not put it out there kinda early

watched the third and final Decline of Western Civilisation docos last night and it really elevates the series on a whole with its view on this culture over this length of time. really great look at the punk and metal scenes as well as the surrounding area of LA they are filmed in
looking back over this exploration of Silksong as a part of a new piece im putting together. still like it but my thoughts have changed to relate more to how you need to create a world worth saving. shares the same ideas, just more refined

maybe two-thirds through The Last Samurai by Helen DeWitt and my gosh it is soooo goooooood. im absolutely demolishing it

honestly, Columbo is kinda a horror movie from the perspective of the murderer. he just keeps popping up out of nowhere and knows exactly where theyre gonna be

been reading The Wicked + The Divine and this is some gooooooooooood shit. 5 vols in and i am loving it
new sylvie game, Discover the World, such fun
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was fucking incredible. looks great, fights are fab, performances are off the charts, and it killed me with its heart. its fun getting to watch a favourite movie for the first time
Suspiria was amazing. absolutely bathed me in its tension and atmosphere that i couldnt not lock in. its also just beautiful
really enjoyed Look Outside, a potential top 10 game for me i think. decided to write something about the first moments i had with it. tried something a bit new for the writing style, but i think it turned out alright
