For now, just report and block, and treat it like it doesn't exist. They want responses, they want you to put energy into them cuz no one in their life loves or cares about them. Don't engage at all cuz they'll just keep coming back the more you do.

Just watched the YUNGBLUD Smashing Pumpkins video for a song called Zombie (not that one) and like... why do you need 4 guitars for this song? It's a 4/4 measure with one note each beat and YUNGBLUD keeps making duckface and I think it just sucks.

The biggest sin of the Mega Man Legacy Collections is not having the ability to change the button mapping cuz the Mega Man Zero series has the worst control scheme in the entire fucking franchise.

Anyway I'm doing well. I have a little bit of a bug, but a minor one. Not too bad. I hope you're doing well. Get some sun or something. Do something nice for yourself today.

Also thanks to @thinkoutbooks.bsky.social for the physical copy of The Descent. Fantastic addition to the collection.

Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 01/01/2026
"The Descent" by James Long was my favorite read this year. Such an insane book and story. Would love to see it as a miniseries or something. Overall, everything I've read this year was really good. Maybe "Pines" by Blake Crouch was the weakest, but still interesting.

Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 01/01/2026
I've been trying to read more, and while it's not a staggering amount, the books I've read this year are, "Blood Meridian" Cormac McCarthy, "The Only Good Indians" Stephen Graham Jones, "Pines" Blake Crouch, "Stolen Tongues" Felix Blackwell, "The Descent" James Long, and "SEED" Ania Ahlborn.

I'm starting a new job in a week. It sounds great. The schedule is great. The cause is great. Maybe I can take back some control in my life and start to focus on the things I really want to do.

NEW MEGA MAN AAAJHH

Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
Last night I was going on about the Frankenstein movie. I still am because the "who is the real monster" takes are insane. In the movie, it's Victor. In the books, it's both. Victor is a monster by blind ambition. The creature is a monster of circumstance.
010
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
Also I'm not saying that the creature is unsympathetic in the novel; it absolutely is. But there are glaring differences in the choices it makes between the novel and the film. Again, I think the movie is fantastic. It's a different telling of the story. Nothing wrong with that at all.
010
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
So much of what I'm seeing online about the movie is like... tell me you never read the book without telling me. That, or you misunderstood it greatly.
010
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
Also all of you simping for the creature in the new Frankenstein need better hobbies. Or at least be quieter about masturbating to it, good god.
021
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
It's well acted, decently written, visually fantastic, and enjoyable overall. The liberties it takes do diminish some of the original story, but it uses those changes to tell a different version, and that's okay. If you have an extra two and a half hours to watch it, I recommend it.
000
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
The argument of the original tale is who the monster is and the movie takes away some viewer agency by outright stating it's Victor and definitely not the creature. With all of this in mind, it's a solid adaptation on it's own and follows the book closer than any other film version of Frankenstein.

Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
The creature learning to speak and read is done better in the movie than the novel, I feel, where the former has the creature learning from a blind man who cannot see or judge him as he is, whereas the latter has him learn by watching a family while living in a nearby hovel.
110
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
There is an allegory to the cycle of abuse throughout and while it's a worthy tale, it's not necessarily the tale of Frankenstein. It glosses over Victor's growth with a single line, "I've regained sanity at a great cost, and yet here you are, madness calling me back."
100
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
This allows the movie to make it entirely sympathetic. The creature is never allowed to be a monster beyond the means of its existence. There is a scene where the creature tells Victor to his face, "you are the monster". In fact, from that scene onward, the film begins to lose it's footing for me.
100
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
The movie entirely foregoes Victor's fiancee, instead opting to make Elizabeth his younger brother's fiancee. She becomes strangely infatuated with the creature, almost at first sight. Further, the creature only ever kills out of self defense or when forced to.
100
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
The creature grieves this, not out of genuine love or forgiveness, but because the game they played was all the creature had left. With this, he chooses death. Whether he dies or not, we don't know. The movie skirts these arguments throughout.
100
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
Since Victor will not make a companion for him, the creature vows to torment Victor for his remaining days, beginning a long time back and forth hunt between the two; Victor seeking to kill the creature while also fleeing the torment of it. After telling his story to a ship captain, Victor dies.
100
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
This time, he threatens the life of Victor's fiancée. Victor agrees to the task, but ultimately changes his mind. He cannot, will not, create another thing so potentially dangerous. The creature holds true to his promise and kills Victor's fiancée.
100
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
But then, after learning his creator's name, chooses to seek him out and demand a companion to forever join him in unlife. Victor, recognizing his mistakes, chooses not to oblige the creature. As a result, the creature kills Victor's younger brother and demands a bride again.
100
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
On the other hand, the monster, creature, Adam, whatever you like to call it, while sympathetic, does make monstrous choices for his own gain. He did not ask for life, but is not justified in taking life. He doesn't kill out of self defense. The first life he takes is accidental, a misunderstanding.
100
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
Victor is blinded by the pursuit of science and believes that what he is doing will ultimately benefit mankind. He is seen as a monster for the extremes his methods go to and as a consequence of his creation. Throughout the novel, Victor comes to terms with his mistakes and grows to understand this.
100
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
To the layman, most people can look at the story of Frankenstein and explicitly say the creature is innocent and Victor is the real monster, and Del Toro's adaptation leans into this quite heavily. In the book, this is somewhat debatable.
100
Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 09/11/2025
Watched Del Toro's Frankenstein. I had a good time with it and I enjoyed it quite a bit. That said, there were some choices made throughout that I don't necessarily agree with and some changes to the core story that majorly affect and negate the philosophy of the original novel. Spoilers below.

This year I released “Bloodletting”-a real-time #roguelike built in #pico8. Now I am turning it into a “Zelda-like” RPG. Current design twist: the weapon is unlocked *after* the first dungeon-players must clear it using only their dash.Tight, risky, and oddly satisfying #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Spent some time last night catching up on all the horror game trailers I haven't been keeping up with, and a lot of it looks phenomenal. Last Report stood out to me, Routine looks atmospheric as hell, and Hellmart looks fucked. There's a lot more coming out but I want all of it.

Originally planned as a DLC and snowballed into something much bigger. I know this team has put a large part of their souls into this one, I just hope that it can live up to the insane expectations everyone has set for it after 6 years. I'm ready for it.

Da Creecher @dacreecher.bsky.social · 11/08/2025
Maybe a hot take but 28 Years Later was a solid 6/10 for me. A lot of it dragged to me with some great moments dotted in throughout and an ending with wild tonal whiplash. Didn't love it, but that's not to say I'm not looking forward to the sequel.

Honestly one of the coolest effects I've seen. I've wanted to see something like this in horror games for a long time and I can't think of a time where it's been done, at least not as effectively as this. Keep your eyes on this one.

Oh man. I remember I had a demo disc for this?? I just remember it being terrible but also the best thing ever, and then it faded into obscurity and I spent several years of my life convinced it was a fever dream cuz I couldn't remember what it was called.
