I almost wrote something really bad but there's enough of that everywhere I look.

Take a key, lose a key. I don’t make the rules. Fresh lime soda didn’t seem that available

A complex piece by John Matteos, in an Art Deco take on the Cyberpunk Classic style. In a red frame, three silhouetted heads (each with gears, interlocking between the three heads) are superimposed over a gold CD; a globe is superimposed over all three. The top head is facing left; his gear is driving the globe. Where he peers left, he 'scans', his human eyes revealed as his grey view looks over the curvature of the CD. The middle head is facing right; where she peers, her human eyes revealed as her red view looks over a painting of a tree. The bottom head is facing left; where he looks, his yellow view superimposes a keyboard and mouse, but in his view, it is revealed to be a human hand.

A sign that says "Pokemon" and also, separately "Panini"

The forbidden sandwich

It’s a good evening to read a novel.

Physical cd’s were a whole other era if you can vibe with that. If not, I wish you well in your journey ahead

can’t believe these are the same ears that listened to reggaeton 7 hours in a row. I mean, shit changes fast y’know

I’m an artist. Here is my art.

It certainly says a lot about people when they give someone time and space to recuperate from the past or from previous ugly experiences. A whole other conversation when they choose to continue behaving in bad taste despite having knowledge of these previous experiences

Write something. Write it today. Write your heart out. Write something weird that only you would think of. Your enemies will not topple to your silence. Write your future and live it.

The modern comedy of errors is: wanting to feel things at a deeper, visceral level. But at the same time having only a surface-level experience ahead of you. What you lack in emotional well-being, you more than make up for in shallow puns and darker diatribes

Drydocked For Painting And Scaling, 1918, by Edward Wadsworth.

Thinking about how more and more, as an artist, you have to choose between participating in an ecosystem that is increasingly toxic and hostile to artists, or consciously sequester yourself in a way that protects your mental health but limits your reach

everyone wants to make judgements about music these days, but very few people are actually into developing a fanbase.

you can always tell when art is being made via committee and approval rather than heart and soul.

It’s very sad to see hardworking musicians and composers being looked down at by various echelons of society after they spend years and decades trying to hone in on their craft.

realized pretty early on in life that quietness is highly underrated as a quality as well as a coping mechanism.

On this day, 10 years ago, was released

this game wants me to point AND click?

It’s crazy, the tactics pursued and mental gymnastics people’ll do to justify their proclivity towards unfairness rather than just have a look at the mirror and have an honest conversation with themselves

there are really only two kinds of game designers, philosophically speaking.

- let's try to put this functionality on an existing button

- let's just add another button

things were better when the computer lived in its own specific room and you only went in there sometimes

chopping up the food, making something new is practically a rite of passage in some cultures. Not me though, I’m more of a classical creativity kinda guy
