LA Times article: “John Carpenter has been thinking about death lately. Not in the way you imagine”

The “Call the ambulance / But not for me!” meme with “Call the ambulance” replaced with “I’ve been thinking about death lately”

TikTok tends to give me solutions for problems I've long since made peace with, and today is no different. vt.tiktok.com/ZSU7w86aB/

Thank you!!

Darcy Dee @darcydee.bsky.social · 5d

Thank you!!! it is so genuinely unsung, and I scream about it (glowingly) any chance I get lol

Darcy Dee @darcydee.bsky.social · 5d

Thanks!! If you want any of these let me know, I'd be super thrilled to send you any of these boys haha

Day 21 of #MÖRKTOBER is Beak! The fearsome foul fowl pecks at the cold and unforgiving ground in search of wriggling prey! O' to be as resourceful as the powerful chicken in the dark times! Bugs and seeds beware when this beak bears down and watch out for those wretched wings!

Hi, we don’t use genAI in any phase of production ESPECIALLY CONCEPTING because doing so would defeat the purpose and role of concepting. Ok bye!

Here are my SIX NOBY NOBY BOYS!!! 🟣🟢🟢🟢🟢🟣

I've never done sculpting or glazing before, and I'm really happy that this mostly went okay considering I was entirely winging it, guided only by my love of Noby Noby Boy 🧡

(letting @kt.uvula.jp know that there's a thread of Noby Noby Boys here and that I love it and still play it - hopefully these make you smile haha)

Darcy Dee @darcydee.bsky.social · 7d

anyhow, I recommend thrifting polymer clay and a UV nail lamp too, it's really fun!! Thank you for looking at my little clay love letter to Noby Noby Boy!!!

In the game, you can think your butt and head small again independently using L3 and R3, so you can look like this if you want, with a huge big butt and small head. The opposite is also possible, and is also funny!

Noby Noby Boy 5 -

This is just a really small guy! I can barely see close because my eyes are dumb, but I used a big magnifying glass for these small faces which was really fun!

Noby Noby Boy 4 -

These were my first ideas for these sculptures - in the game, if you stretch too far you could split in half, requiring you to find and eat your butt to become whole again. That's what's going on here!

Keychain style B, this time remembered the charm hook thing lol

Boy 3 and Boy 2 are buds

Noby Noby Boy 2 -

Wanted to make a floppy keychain, but I forgot to put the metal keychain hook in before baking so he is just here,and he's chilling.

Noby Noby Boy 1 -

The glaze is sloppy on the butt (lol) and I think I'm going to swap the wire for a string so he clacks around more. I think he's cute though!

Got sick last week and when I perked up yesterday I figured it would be a good time to finally learn how to use polymer clay and UV resin, so I genuinely hope everyone is excited to see the 5 or 6Noby Noby Boys I made at 3am last night!

Legendary Final Fantasy Composer Nobuo Uematsu says he’s never used generative AI, and never will.

"I think it still feels more rewarding to go through the hardships of creating something myself."

I'm back to writing about video games! Today I wrote about the Super Mario World hack Masterpiece by @maddymakesgames.com and how it communicates the creative process of iteration of idea via its gameplay. Check it out! I hope you like it! thelifeofgame.wordpress.com/2025/10/16/m...

I vote we all start using fancy footnote symbols (the footnote symbols are specific for each person!!!) and each post has an appendix

I just repaired someone's Pixel 7, and what should be a simple swollen battery replacement is made to be so needlessly complicated and annoying and risky to the screen and it reminds me why I prefer old tech any day, even if it means one day getting taken out by a CRT exploding my head off my body.

thrifted a cute vintage housecoat from Germany and when translating the materials learned that "baumwolle" means "tree wool" (aka cotton) and that's really cute! if I dont ingest one cute thing every 7 hours or so I get overwhelmed with everything about the world, so big W for etymology!
