You probably know me from the VGM scene (I run the team that runs @ocremix.org), but On Here I’m rediscovering Bollywood movies and music. Partial to the 90s/00s era.

Watching Disney’s Brother Bear with the kiddo. I had missed this when it came out.
This script is so rough. Like the actual story is fine, but there’s all of this incidental dialogue that just doesn’t land right. The jokes don’t work.

Having a weird opposite reaction. Usually posts like these elicit a “has it really been THAT long?” but 9 years honestly seems like a very short time ago that this game came out.
Celebrating 9 years since we first drove off into the horizon on an unforgettable road trip in Final Fantasy XV.
What was the best recipe you made on this journey?

Sometimes I’ll be reading someone giving some feedback about a game or something and I’ll be like “this person is making a lot of good points.” Then I read the words “this is a slap in the face” and I immediately roll my eyes and think “this guy is full of shit.”

A few months ago I instituted a “no food between dinner and breakfast” rule for myself and this is basically how I felt for the first 3 weeks.

Every once in a while I remember something weird and cool from the Expanded Universe. I think Disney has mostly dropped the ball on Star Wars but the old stuff is still there and I still love it.

The trap of the DAW is that it's functionally infinite. As a novice, you should limit your instrumentation so that you can understand the role each part plays in your arrangement. Even in the digital space you should write for small ensemble. Don't just add layers to mask weakness in partwriting.

Did I actually forget to post the Wizard City kids boards/designs from the new season?

As a player I care a lot about the fonts in a game. If your fonts are super basic, I don't want to play. Arial doesn't belong in your game. The UI needs personality.

One of the dumbest and weirdest trends in robocalls is how the prerecorded voice on the other end has this slightly halting delivery of the pitch, with a tinge of upspeak, like it's someone reading from a script for the first time.

My even more unpopular opinion is unless you have personally experienced the thing, you should probably refrain from having an opinion on it.
We need to return to shaming people for parroting YouTube/TikTok with stuff like "When I want your opinion, I'll just find the YouTuber who gave it to you."

With the Fall 2025 anime season, Crunchyroll demonstrates zero respect for anime as a medium as the presentation quality of its subtitles reach an all-time low.

One thing I’ve realized about Bluesky is that it’s hard to get an answer to a question here. On old Twitter generally you could ask something and someone would give you a correct answer. Here, no such luck. It just drifts away into the aether.
