Princess Mononoke is my favourite, but Totoro is his most perfect. The umbrella scene is my go-to for my favourite movie scene ever.

It is 1978. You wake in your dorm room, eager to get to the dining hall so you can grab a quick bite to eat and then head to the campus computer lab to start the REAL work of the day: inventing livestreaming with the dozens of other people shouting strats at the guy playing Colossal Cave Adventure
GAME STUDIES STUDY BUDDIES closes out the month, and the year, with a discussion of another documentary--this time following the twisty passages of history and medium with 2010's text adventure doc GET LAMP. rangedtouch.com/2025/12/31/8...

When you get the reputation of being the guy with the encouraging words on New Year's Eve, it can start to come through as a little pressure -- what if the situation on the ground is worse than usual? what if people are more scared than they usually are, and with cause? what use are good vibes then?

You might think that eggnog ice cream would be perfect, given that eggnog is already a milk-and-sugar-based beverage. Well, you'd be right. It's freaking GREAT and my only regret is I made it decades on this earth without trying it before
