Each different program is like wearing a different set of boxing gloves and being asked to play Operation. You can see how to get what you want done but feel thwarted

Every time I try a 3d modelling app in VR I go a little bit more crazy as they have a subset of the features or method of interactivity that I can almost reach out and touch but then nope it all falls apart and I have to restrain myself from yelling in frustration

Rewatching The Thing (1982) - I forgot how much of a slow burn the movie is, much more methodical than my memories gave it credit.
The practical effects are undefeated, of course. A good day at the wet dog-alien-monstrosity puppet factory, for sure

If you would like a window into how bizarre my life is now, I celebrated this (tentative) news with my first bottle of pepsi max in two months lol

Possible good news on the whole real life front! Aaaaaa

This weeks chainsaw man (ch231) is absolutely pants-on-head bonkers, makes sense that the next one closes out Part 2.
What an absolute shotgun blast to the head

Happi birfday!!

Sometimes you can't sleep and all you can think is how cool it would be for every atom in your body to spontaneously convert into photons

"WebP compresses better, don't you want the internet to be fast!?" yeah i do maybe we could work on not embedding twenty megabytes of trackers and other bullshit JavaScript so your page runs without adblocking most of it first. no? then fuck webp. that's my opinion

I love to get at least one physical ticket to add to my scrapbook :3

I've been looking at Aogashima which you can access via ferry but also has a passenger helicopter for when the Pacific says no. maps.app.goo.gl/gx7xRrzX6myt...

Agreed on the ferries, taking the Oorai to Tomakomai ferry was a lovely overnight trip

Once you start finding your way around the JP transport ecosystem it can feel like unlocking a new advanced tier of options.
Ferries! Bus systems! Interlocking transport cards! Sometimes a helicopter!

A time capsule from (booming, echoing voice) THE PRIOR MILLENNIUM

Grand Designs is a show in which British people spend more money than they have trying to build a house whilst you as the audience try to guess if they’ll be divorced by the end of the episode.

The lack of tension is also not helped by the ability to summon a Ghost Horse at (nearly) any time and skyrim your ass out of a disadvantageous situation.
Great for avoiding difficulty cliffs, but not so much for stretching yourself as a player

They are often fascinating time capsules into different socioeconomic times, same with "Place in the Sun" style programs

Put this in the Louvre

The company behind TV has started putting out plastic sets, much to the chagrin of certain hardcore early adopters

The hair is doing a lot of that work, certainly

Hoooooooly shit

The game is good, if a little routine. Combat could use a little more development.
As for that servant, I'm 1 of 3 endings in and I think their gender could be summarised as "Don't really care" or "sword"

Unbeatable conversion rate of yen to calories

Look, everyone! A 2020s refresher that bootlegging/piracy are brought about due to service-level failures! This short was only ever going to be shown once at an event. Had someone not cam recorded it—and Khara not accidentally(?) attached a 4K copy to their takedown notice—we wouldn’t be seeing this

The power of adding insult to injury! You are back in the game but have only a starter pistol, no ammo, and an egg salad sandwich

A shame they didnt make a gouf

"Okay, i'm on the left. No, the left. LEFT. The Other Left, ffs. Yeah, there I am please oh god I think they are round the corner aaaaaa"

a black and white British Rail poster titled "The argument for electrifying our railways, will become clearer in time." with four panels showing scenes from 1978, 1987, 1995 and 2005 with oil running out over that period

"The argument for electrifying our railways will become clearer in time."
British Rail, 1979.

U-Olga Marie character designs

Oooh shiny

Too pure for this world
