I grew up listening to Paul Simon. Short kid with huge dreams listening to short man with huge songs. On this day 40 years ago, 15-year old me bought his first CD with his own money. I’ve never stopped listening. Graceland is one of the most magnificent works of art in any medium

the problem with the games industry is that it makes money in a sustainable way by creating stuff that people want to pay for this is in contrast to how big capital would prefer to make money, by trying to scale fake numbers to infinity using gambler brained investors lured in by impossible claims

Power Stone. If you could find a sweet spot that combined the combat from the first and the party game-ness of the second you would have something magical.

Throwback to something worth repeating.

A screenshot of a tweet that says: Your art will betray you. It will look better in your head than on paper. It will make you feel untalented some days. Love it anyway. Because one day, it will also surprise you, fulfill you, and remind you why you started.
