Tonight we’re continuing playing my Achtung! Cthulhu campaign where everyone gets to shoot nazis, which for some reason is very cathartic.

The John Murphy track used in the credits for both The Bone Temple & 28 Years Later is such a masterpiece of minimalist/maximimalist songwriting.

The Bone Temple: Just as good as last year’s sequel! Someone should give Ralph Fiennes all the awards.

The Swedish prince and copycat designer Carl Philip has released a new range of luxury scarves. There's just something about them... I don't know. Something about the design's negative space? Not sure what it is.. oh.

This. Everything is you read or hear is just observations about the past, and sometimes the present. Trend chasing or prediction is a mug's game.
I've run businesses since 2003, a large chunk of that time in games. I've worked with AAA, publishers, platforms, service providers and indies. Huge success and epic failures.
No one knows what's going to work today, or in the future. Anyone claiming otherwise just hasn't been humbled ✨yet✨.

Someone reminded me about this thread by replying to a post late in the chain, so now I have to repost it so more people can see it, because this is a very good list of very good books.
The challenge: choose 20 books that greatly influenced you. One book per day, for 20 days. No explanations, no reviews, just covers.

The primary thing with AI voice we know: AI sucks.
The secondary thing true of VO, art etc is the majority of people using it to fill a skills gap lack the XP to develop TASTE.
Creating with quality is so far above their heads, they proudly share work that is not only soulless but mediocre.

“bsky is boring!”
1) good
2) social media should not be a cornerstone of your everyday entertainment
3) I find new artists to follow every day and look at pretty art endlessly on here when I feel like it
4) get a tactile hobby where you create something with your hands
5) read book
6) walk outside

Two rewatches of _fantastic_ movies.
One surprisingly funny comedy based on a game very few people played (I did! The movie is more fun)
One one-note, but still pretty entertaining, ballerina vampire movie (with a great scene set to a Danzig track).

30 years ago Eric Cantona kicked a nazi and was banned from football for the remainder of the season, possibly dashing United's hope for the title.
In 2021, he said about the incident:
'I have one regret. I would have loved to have kicked him even harder.'
