hollering, "corprus!" at the screen halfway through pathologic 3 like a fully normal individual who does not have a truly stupid number of hours in morrowind.

one of my friends has a habit of shitting on the things i enjoy. sometimes in ways i can brush off and sometimes in ways that feel rather bad: "this is a story i found meaningful." -> "it's drivel."

not sure what to do about that, other than say less and less and less about what i like.

If you have never played Morrowind before but like the more recent Elder Scrolls games, we'd like for you to sincerely give it a try and tell us what you think about it.

The game is half off on GOG right now at $7.50, and available as part of Game Pass.

Artists have always loved to sketch!

Sketch of a sparrow from Egypt dated c. 1479–1458 BC.

Some 3,500 years ago in Egypt, artists used flakes of limestone as sketchpads!

if you've ever enjoyed block games even a little bit, i highly recommend vintage story. it's beautiful, extremely easy to mod, and the gameplay loops all feel rewarding.
As of today, Vintage Story is 10 years old. To commemorate, we're doing a 200 game key giveaway. Thank you for sticking with us!

A fountain pen inspired by Japanese plum trees.
It may look like sumi ink painting, but the effect is also achieved through traditional urushi artistry.

there were multiple things in the local news about families being grabbed and detained, and there are notices around my building on each floor telling people what their rights are and what to do if ice shows up.

chronic migraines make it difficult to have a life or function as a human being, in general. with this one, i can't abide even the light that leaks in through closed curtains and tears are running down my face from how much my eyes are watering. i have an appointment in 20 minutes.

dropped a small piece of chicken when i was removing it from the bones and the boy cat was thrilled out of his tiny mind. there are so many dishes to wash, though.

I found a big, beautiful nudibranch on the rocky shore!!

Even when I gently flipped it over, it had cute and beautiful patterns on its underside too 🫧✨

There are many reasons to help people. One that I think gets overlooked sometimes is: helping others often helps you. So if you feel like shit, don’t flagellate yourself in the dark. Leave your head a little. Extend some kindness. You can’t do everything, but you can do some things.
