Production & curation stuff with those pesky videogames at places like Hollow Ponds, Honeyslug, Wild Rumpus, Beta Public. Grampians Champion.
Why do bash "those who stay in Omelas" for enjoying the summer festival but we never question if the child has bad vibes? Or if they’re just unpleasant to be around?

They are going to announce a port of Squaresoft’s Treasure Of The Rudras at The Game Awards.

Decided to start a rumour that they are going to announce a port of Squaresoft’s Treasure Of The Rudras at The Game Awards to force Square Enix’s hand.

Has anyone ever looked as sad and defeated as the very hungry caterpillar after his big binge on the Saturday?

just saw the news about Martin Parr’s passing.

I’ve many treasured memories watching his documentaries with pals

One especially close to my heart is this one on Dudley’s Teddy Gray’s sweet factory

An truly PERFECT way to spend 20 mins on a Sunday

“The FIFA Peace Prize” is such a pleasing group of words.

Really enjoying saying them and thinking about them.

Ian Bogost is just a fairy tale made up to scare young game developers.

Holy crap, this is a huge drop! I'd love to see a documentary about the process of rights clearance they must have gone through.

Dante Heads - our time is now.
***ANNOUNCEMENT***

Now available to order on the @vinsyn.bsky.social website on Blu-ray in the US from #OCNDistribution #PartnerLabel #AGFA: #TheMovieOrgy (1968)!

THE MOVIE ORGY is a legendary found footage triumph from Joe Dante—one of genre cinema's most significant masterminds.

Very good “you might also like” on a book of Pasolini’s poetry.

Pasolini & Ayres, a dream pairing.

Saw a forum thread asking if Fabula Nova Crystallis destroyed the general public's perception of Final Fantasy.

If you have any idea what Fabula Nova Crystallis means then you have no idea what the general public think of Final Fantasy. You are in too deep my friend.

Do people actually think Ken Levine thought the Playstation Blog was the right place to talk about how much he viscerally hates service workers in coffee shops?

Gonna be needing that Ozma plush. bsky.app/profile/toky...
Final Fantasy IX 25th Anniversary: The Exhibition in Ginza has a lot of great merch, but the best is a tie between the Ozma plush and the Ozma shirt.

Has anyone at all written about Xbox Live Indie Games as part of all the Xbox 360 retrospectives doing the rounds?

Feels like a big oversight, lot of devs and companies out there that got their start on that service and it's mostly been memory-holed.

Reading the last couple of Carnacki stories I've not read before and I do love that at the end of every story, it's either some unknowable horror from beyond the realm of our senses or some arseholes smuggling or something.

Hard to believe it's been almost a decade since San Andreas Deer Cam.

What a project, one of the best to ever do it.

Got offered to be taken upstairs at the charity shop to see their big stack of Michael Moorcock books waiting to be put out.

My life has ended up exactly where I want it to be.
