Watching "Annie" with the kid and during the customary wikipedia search learned that the original comic was an anti-progressive screed.

Straight trash 🤣

Spent a little while messing around with SNES soundfonts while learning a bit about FL Studio tonight. This was sequenced by hand since I learned this one on the piano not too recently!

Third time's the charm for completing a Hyrule Warriors game. I played the first one on WiiU and 3DS for hundreds of hours and never came close to completing it.
The second one on Switch was really fun, but it got grindy and I just sort of stopped.
This one is paced really well!

When is Weird Al doing the Golden parody?
My money's on a song about getting a colonoscopy.
🎶It's going up up up my low intestine.
Get a good look at my colon.
See if there's anything swollen!🎶

All this AI shit feels exactly like 3D in movies. They just couldn't accept that we didn't want it, but were so deeply invested that they couldn't admit they'd invested poorly.

Moving onto the post-game, this remake firmly plants I&II in S-Tier for me, from now on!!
Excited to see if the third time is the charm for VII next.

Franky: Johnny Depp, Leo Dicaprio, Robert Downey Jr.
Creature: John Lithgow, Vincent D'Onofrio, John C. Reilly
Honorable mention: Spade and Farley!

I've been stitching together the 2400dpi scans I made from the 1987 #Nintendo wall calendar. It's slow going BUT I did get the art for Super #Mario 2 repaired & cleaned!
When I'm done the RAWs & repairs will be on my Internet Archive page: archive.org/details/@his... (Links to more stuff in my bio)

Me watching GDT's Frankenstein: You know what would be cool? If the story shifted to the creature's perspective halfway through.
15 min later: Oh shit! Right on!

I turn 39 today!
I remember turning 29 as I started work on OK KO and was about to pitch Mao Mao. I thought "If I can't do this by 30, then maybe I never will."
I still feel the anxiety of what I will or won't achieve very keenly. There's so much I want to and am capable of doing-

Dragon Quest 2 remake just floored me with this scene! Just a clip, but the whole thing is so simple yet so emotionally charged. It's what Dragon Quest does best: fairy tales with raw human stakes.

Had an absolute blast sitting down for a one-on-one chat with @parkersimmons.bsky.social this week to discuss in GREAT DETAIL the long history of Nintendo's operating systems. Pretty fascinating to track design philosophies over the years and speculate if "weird" Nintendo will return. Check it out!
