Everyone's justly praising his writing, of course, but my favourite thing Kaleb ever did was this take on Johnny Cash covering Hurt but in the Folsom Prison Blues era. Made me sad hearing it again but it's still hilarious. (the image is one of Kaleb's photographs)

The Heroes Around Me just got English translations!

It's an indie game about a truck driver raising his daughter in rural China during the 90s. Gorgeous pixel art, cozy soundtrack and apparently it's 4-5 hours long. Also, extremely cheap!

learned that a documentary team is currently in brazil looking for and filming the search for the print of the original ambersons cut that may or may not be there....2024 could be a great year, against all odds.

underrated tactic: end one song and begin the next with a very similar lyric in different styles - "he was living with a gun" and "oh ain't it lonely when you're living with a gun" on van morrison's somehow always underrated nigtmare-pastoral banger veedon fleece #veedonfleece
