Love to see Eriks thriving out here

We've lost recipes, I remember a time when penguins were athletic equipment.

new blog post: I also wrote about "metroidbranias". Surely if enough of us write about how we dislike a term, people will stop using it? That's how it works, right? blog.vbuckenham.com/database-gam...

Powerfully activating my dopamine receptors that were weaned on NES manuals, these are really fun.

Had a good time painting on my tablet & listening to this, thanks for sharing all that work.

PS the live readings are a delight, thanks for orchestrating those. I am neutral on Star Wars, but pro-actor/performance/jokes, and there's so much to enjoy in them.

So many scenes with clerks & cashiers, across all their films, and many different kinds of haggling. Ulysses fails to fast talk his way thru a logistical problem. Rooster Cogburn gets grilled by a lawyer: both enforce the law, but they think + talk about so differently.

To jump off of that, not only is it not creation, it's *really* not procreation. Take the artist out of the exchange and replace it with your own whims & you quickly enter an aesthetic/emotional death spiral, with no new psychic energy entering the mix.

That's 9 months to make ~14 hours of television, vs. the 33 months that Severence took to make 7 hours.

that's a hell yea for me, brotha
