Dug up Tuomas Korppi's website on the wayback machine to see if I could get more info on The Fight of the Sumo-Hoppers and was greeted with an all time homepage directory.

this video still has not left my head, "I thought I smelled something burning..." "A monarch's job is never done!" "Focus, M" It's just nail on the head after nail on the head

I should show this in every class I teach just so I get to use "aaa mario-ing" as a critique shorthand

What Doth Videogame? it's the question that haunts generations

super stoked about this. it'll be a wide ranging talk about the role of videogames and art in general in the current hellscape and then a listening party/premiere of my album "Saint Elizabeth" that i, uh, need to finish by then.
join us 2/19 for our first ever lecture series event, featuring @ellaguro.bsky.social: "What Doth Videogame? A personal history of art and life in the age of collapse."

okay blog posts to write has now reached
- everything is yellow paint
- friendslop is actually a great term lowkey
- gamefeel is generally sauceless nowadays (juice is a poison)

I thought yellow paint was #1 worst games discourse everywhere but I think the truth is everything is yellow paint discourse and it's the #1 discourse. ie "everyone is twelve"
... it's like something a video game would do because we've trained gamers to ignore subtext. it's like TV shows are putting yellow paint on everything
