No video game or hollywood set piece will live as rent free in my mind as the mud void that the narrator crawls through in Samuel Beckett's book 'How It Is'. The Best/worst setting/non-setting ever.

The sensation of finally "getting" a really hard book/paper is so fascinating to me. Onlookers might not see any difference in how I talked about the relevant concepts before/after the "lightbulb" turning on, but holy moly, does the information sitting in the mind "feel" different.

Checking out the Expedition 33 dev's webpage ( www.sandfall.co/team), each employee's title/mini-bio includes their favorite games, and 3 of them listed Majora's Mask. I strongly approve haha.

Everytime i listen to "Carnival of the Animals: Aviary" by Camille Saint-Saëns, I picture a fluffy bird that looks like this haha.

I haven't played clarinet regularly in 10 years, but every time I hear one, my fingers follow along with the notes I hear. I can still feel the key presses. Crazy how playing an instrument rewires the brain.

As a person who gets migraines, every time I hear a woodpecker, I reflexively/irrationally feel bad for them and think about all the headaches all that drumming on trees would create, haha.

Its little things like this that hit me hardest, for some reason. The everyday, mundane task of checking email. I feel so bad for our scientists.

When I find a new song that I love, love, love - I immediately listen to it on repeat a thousand times, to the point I can't bear to hear it anymore haha.

When I'm jamming along to a song in the car, I love the facial expressions of other folks who happen to see me from their own cars; they always get so happy haha.

As an American, hearty congratulations Canada!! Wishing you the best standing up to our bigotry. Wishing you a prosperous future.

The opposite of the Statue of Liberty

Good luck today, Canada!

Every time I read about a new, unwilling celebrity of our political moment, I think about how their life will never be the same again. Wishing Judge Dugan and her family the very best.

I've known Judge Dugan for a long time. We have overlapping social circles and she's come to Pi Day. Before she became a judge, she was a legal aid attorney and a referee for lawyer discipline cases. Absolutely, we butted heads on the latter. This is pure unmitigated authoritarian bullshit.

Putin's willingness to negotiate and cooperate is an illusion. He does what he wants and is able to do. The Kremlin always acts only in its own interests. It always deceives: In speech, in writing, in all forms and options. The Kremlin has no partners: only slaves or masters⤵️

Days that look sunny but are actually raining are so odd. Devil's rain. I'm not sure what emotional state I'm supposed to have.

Saw birds of every color of the rainbow on my daily run today. Nature is always so full of surprises.

He was a wonderful and inspiring leader. Rest in peace, Pope Francis.

Just finished astrobot. What a fun, happy game. Stellar in every way.

Another image from this incredible foggy morning at the iconic Mont Saint Michel last week… #photography #art #landscape #history #myregion

A floofy male White-collared Manakin at @casabentbill.bsky.social I hear these birds lekking all day long in the forest around our house. #birds #costarica #nature 🌿

As a fan of both extraction shooters and bungie, I really hope bungies risky gambit pays off!

Some of my favorite books are unfinished books - the castle, the last tycoon, etc. There is something so useful and insightful about reading something that is only partially complete

A friend once told me that they like to stay up late at night because its the only time of day where there arent any societal expectations placed upon them. Just lots of freedom and silence and peace. I totally agree and think about that sentiment often

Every year in spring, I see less and less insects/ birds/wonderful critters on my walks, and it makes me very sad.

As a kid, I remember looking at flames and wondering at the impossibility of knowing where any individual flicker of flame would occur. As a an adult, I get the same childlike fascination from tinkering with random coupled nonlinear differential equations. They be crazy.

Switch 2 looks awesome!

Wishing the protestors the best in Turkey right now. Sounds like a very scary situation.

The Glimmer Train journal may have shut its doors in 2019, but its still one of my favorites ever. So many amazing works from emerging writers.

No arguement that any person has ever told me has been half as convincing as my cat meowing at me. I have no idea what he's saying but i completely, 1000% agree with him.

Light fascinates me both scientifically and artistically. Such a subtle and beautiful phenomena in physics

Quiet nighttime sounds are the best! A single car on a road far away, an owl hooting, wind through trees.

🇺🇦

a cat slow blinking at you is one of the best feelings in the world!

I wish there were more people like Zelenskyy in leadership positions. Such an inspiration!

I am alway amazed at how japanese haiku can pack so much poetic meaning into so few words

Just finished the book "The Stars My Destination" (Aka "Tiger Tiger") by Alfred Bester. Super disturbing and incredibly creative.

I really want to play "Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2", but then again, I have a backlog of 50+ games already 🤣

Forests are so awesome!! I am always amazed at how light/shadow/wind can combine to create such beautiful moments in time.

Sunday evenings are great, but they would be so much better if they werent so close to monday mornings

Lunch break on a friday, with a blue sky outside- a wonderful feeling!

Riders of the Purple Wage by Philip Jose Farmer is such a wild science fiction novella haha. Such a unique writing style and concept.

Poetry is so wonderful, it is medicine for the mind!

I love Bluesky!
