Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nʌki’wah brother.

I was meant to be hiking Kungsleden in northern Sweden, but between the heatwave and getting ill I ended up exploring more of Stockholm and Sigtuna. Feeling the weight of years walking through Gamla Stan is always a highlight for me.

I mirror this view, with one caveat: it will -not- necessarily find an audience and it won't necessarily be a success, but if you made it because you want them to exist, at least you have the reward of having pulled these never-made things screaming out of the sea of ideas into reality.
Make games for yourself and for your friends. Make things because they don't exist and you want to see them in the world, because you have an itch you need to scratch. Art made with love and passion and quirkiness will find an audience who appreciates that love and passion and quirkiness.

“One generation begins to change the information as it passes through us” - I read Children of Time by @aptshadow.bsky.social some years ago and it somehow escaped me it was a series, so finishing it up now. There’s a lot of context needed for the horror of this quote to land, but Jesus Christ
