Since this is going around again I want to mention that "culturally normal" refers to gavin newsom talking about how democrats should be worse people, because that's what's normal in his opinion www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/02/gavi...

Gavin Newsom says Dems need to be "more culturally normal" & stop talking about pronouns - LGBTQ Nation
The notion that Democrats are obsessed with so-called identity politics at the expense of kitchen table issues is not reflected in the data.

"Screen-based 2D games are a dead-end; there is simply no comparison to an immersive 3D experience." The death of 2D games is on the horizon, predicts EDGE magazine in December 1993 - a common feeling at the time as FMV, texture-mapped polygonal 3D, and VR became the hot new tech.
The future of the videogame is pretty straightforward.

There are two routes that the videogame can take: 2D images dragged from ROM or CD; and the 3D environment generated in real time.
While the 2D route encompasses real 24bit images, full-motion video, bluescreen, high-definition rendered graphics and so on, you can only explore what is on the disc; you can only visit the places that the artist or camera has visited before you.

3D environments are still visualised in a more basic fashion, but once the world and its contents have been described mathematically, the player can go anywhere he or she wants; there are an infinite number of views to be had.

As the technology advances, so those basic vector graphics give way to polygons with light sourced shading, texture mapping, transparency and so on. And the ultimate experience is to actually wander around that virtual world and interact with it in three dimensions, using stereo eyephones to see the world and motion sensors to track your position.
Screen-based 2D games are a dead end; there is simply no comparison to an immersive 3D experience. It's the difference between being the passenger in a car and actually driving it.

A football player says "glad you're here in the USA for football season, Junji Ito. Let me show you how to throw a perfect spiral." The football plater throws the ball. Ito is mesmerized. Spirals appear in his eyes and he sweats profusely. We zoom in on his face in an extreme closeup as the intensity of his terror increases.

Pen, watercolor, black & white charcoal pencil.

Another featured piece from the Spooky Pants book.

A man in a sweater stands with his hands on his hips looking out of a large window with the curtains open. Things aren’t looking good outside, reader. A massive winged demon is emerging from the clouds as dozens of little ghosts and bone demons rip through the sky. On the ground below we see townsfolk running through the grass. Our man in the window is in no mood for this. He lets us know, “Oh, I am in no mood for this.” His dog looks out the window as well, wagging its tail. 

Fantasia (1940) inspired drawing. I think I could’ve gone a little heavier with the chaos outside but we’ll try again with fresh drawings this October. I like how the clouds turned out. Trying to balance my sloppy lines with more detail can be tricky but I think we achieved a good result.

If I could go back in time and tell teenage Andy running a Silent Hill 2 fansite in 2001 that one day he'd be in the credits of an actual Silent Hill game, he'd probably be like "Cool."
