i love this quote and earnestly think it is one of the most beautiful and resonant things ever said about why we make art as people and what it means to live and share.
and also, i think of it every time i instead of that choose to watch 15 youtube videos in a row

I turn off the lights. I sit cross-legged at the foot of my bed, eyes closed. I picture Cranky Kong and begin to rotate him. Soon, I picture a myriad of Kongs - Donkey, Lanky, Candy, ect. I rotate them too. Each has a distinct tilt and axis, they're spinning at varying speeds. I begin to levitate.

Devastated that I am not mentioned on the Grokopedia page for “Giant Bomb.” Next best hope of getting on there is a footnote on the “Notable 6’10” Guys Who Don’t Play Basketball.”

I stopped meditating every morning and instead just watch that video of the ewok moonwalking and humping Al Roker's leg every morning and nothing in my life changed.

Can't quite put my finger on why this subplot of Pokemon ZA about a character's parasocial relationship with a streamer is so irritating to me.

The last couple of characters you unlock in BALL X PIT are so funny. I’ve been hot and cold on the game but after finishing it I think it’s overall a game that does a lot of really interesting stuff in a fairly limited space that just barely brushes up on overstaying its welcome. A perfect 8/10 game

Meta earns $3.5 billion every six months from showing Faceboon and Instagram users 15 billion “higher legal risk” scam ad impressions a day, internal documents state.
That haul vastly exceeds how much the company expects regulators
To fine it for running scam ads.

I've been editing podcasts now for about 15 years and I'm love that every time I think I've seen the worst of recording setups, someone comes along with something so bad it feels like it's a prank. Like I'm legit wondering if this was recorded off of two soup cans tied together with string.
