A couple of days ago, rather than sweeping I vacuumed a pile of garlic powder we had spilled on the kitchen floor. Now every time we vacuum a little space in the house, the room smells faintly like garlic bread for a few minutes. Overall I think this is a win

Kevin here. I’m a fan of music, video games, pixel art, comics, and writing.
me + @kilowatt.bsky.social envisioned a pc98 title called "The Face," a network of dives, hangouts, and joints that serve as the bedrock to the narrative's urban underworld. we're making the soundtrack while @thediad.bsky.social is on the visuals. trying to do biweekly previews!
I was curious about the market value of the Home Alone house in the 80s. According to public record the place sold for 875K in 1989, or ~2.2M in today’s dollars. Gotta keep on the grind, I guess
“For all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these, ‘I’ll set up a meeting.’” -John Greenleaf Whittier
“Knowing is half the battle.” Ok, but maybe we call it good here? That half was kinda rough
People try and tell me the ihop logo has a nose, but clearly it is smiling while a single teardrop rolls down
Indianapolis 500 but it’s just a bunch of driverless Waymos, winner takes home the coveted “Herbie” in honor of the first driverless car. Is this idea good or great
It’s a shame that modern developers of larger games seem to be obsessed with UIs that lambast the player with a million little notification things to click. Please, just keep clicking and never leave, we beg you to
I don’t want AI to make art so I can spend more time doing the dishes, I want AI to do the dishes and then tell me about the major plot holes in the Sister Act universe
Is a video game even a video game if it does not have an official cookbook? Time to confess that I own one such book
I made a bunch of changes to vastly simplify and reclaim my main email inbox a couple of weeks ago. It’s surprising how big of a difference this makes. Why didn’t I do this years ago?
Outer Wilds, an incredible space game (and just a fantastic video game)(and just a wonderful piece of art), was released 6 years ago today. The best time to start this game is always now.
I think mandatory rarity levels for things in games can be funny. Nothing like that feeling of obtaining a “legendary palette” that is just orange and brown for a cosmetic item
I’m not sure why someone would want a record player that plays audio over Bluetooth only, this seems to defeat the purpose if the goal is to listen to analog audio. I guess if the goal is just the visual aesthetic, then it makes sense in that way?
What if the Mandela effect wasn’t real but we all remembered it being real once

thrilled to announce that my new album, ELEMENTAL FUSION, comes out on iiiypad records April 6th!!! ☄️⛈️🌊 Elemental Fusion is an album of collaborations with instrumentalists. it bridges acoustic warmth with digital processing & synthesizes my own flavors of chiptune and glitch music.
Just a noob trying out water color. I love the color blending aspect of this medium but feels like I need a lot of practice to know what I’m doing.
Some things were never meant to be, like opening a bag of Ling Ling pot stickers without destroying the resealable thing at the top
Mario Kart, Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift and the shopping carts at IKEA could all exist in the same universe where sliding around corners makes you feel like a million bucks

It is very exciting to me when developers of shareware games still have websites
