Wanna see something ~amazing~?!
This is the cover of KAIJU GAGA, beautifully illustrated by @normgrock.bsky.social! 🤩
I grew up reading @chooseadventure.bsky.social, so it's thrilling to see my name on a book with that iconic red logo. I loved writing it and I hope kids (and you!) love reading it.

I dropped by the world's largest department store (Shinsegae in Busan, South Korea) and I'm fascinated by their choice of holiday mascots.
No, not Santa, Rudolph and Frosty.
Beetlejuice, Satine from Moulin Rouge, and Lola from Kinky Boots.
I want an oral history of how that trio was decided upon.

After taking down RetroRealms Ash vs Evil Dead, I knew I had to play through Halloween too. It's just as solid but a little easier, and I like the Evil Dead IP more. These games look great and have some replay value -- very recommend! #JustBeatIt

This line from Video Games (Apr 83) was too prescient. One of the more frustrating things to me about the state of video game preservation is what feels like a general lack of interest in pre-'80s games; I will never stop banging the drum about the importance of '70s games (especially Death Race).

Tonight's stream was interrupted because the game started glitching out. Upon some investigation, it seems my SNES is dying or dead. 😔 Some game title screens work on actual carts, and the Super EverDrive X5 menu, and the Super Game Boy 2, but as soon as you start an SNES game, it's glitch city.

"The movie took two years of painstaking effort to make and consisted of over 25,000 drawings—all done by hand and most done by McCay himself during his free time after work."
Watch Winsor McCay’s The Sinking of the Lusitania, the First Major Animated Propaganda Film (1918)
You might know Winsor McCay (1867? -1934) for the gorgeously surreal Little Nemo comic strip or for his early animated short Gertie the Dinosaur (1914). But did you know that he also created some of the earliest examples of animated propaganda ever?
