That’s amazing, and it’s such a lovingly and thoroughly researched game, too! Tassing felt so alive. When I finished the game I stared emptily at my screen for like half an hour in awe.
Pentimentioned
Dragon Age Inquisition mentioned💕
If you ask me about any of these games, it’ll probably trigger a 15 minute unskippable dialogue (especially Pentiment)

Onfim’s drawing of himself on horseback as a warrior defeating an enemy.
Two of Onfim’s works. On the left is a copy of a passage from the Book of Psalms he did for schoolwork. On the right is an apparently autobiographical depiction of a monster labeled with “I am a wild beast.”
Some more spelling practice by Onfim with some human figures who have round heads and varying numbers of fingers on their big hands.
Onfim’s writing practice accompanied by 7 little people in his particular drawing style, who tend to have very big hands with many fingers.
Nice AI-image-generating tool, but it will never be as great an artist as Onfim, a child who lived in the Novgorod Republic in the mid-1200s and who scribbled these drawings and schoolwork writings on birch bark at the age of 6 or 7.
Huge congrats on the reveal!! 👏🫶 Looks amazing!
Going to be riding the high of being one of the few to raise my hand when the room was asked how many people have read Moby Dick for a while btw
Life is short go to your local sea shanty festival

I hit GOLD in my local secondhand bookshop today. This was £3! 🤯🤯

I really really dislike it when a recipe assumes I own a stand mixer
“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. “At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”
Love this from Guillermo del Toro

I love London, best city in the world, forever grateful I get to spend my 20s so near to it. But I am also Oxford Street’s biggest hater
Yesss!!! Congrats!!
play pentiment 🫵
I’ve been wanting to play it for yearssss but never had the chance to, I’m only 15 hours in so far but just really digging it
I won a Switch 2 in a raffle last month (🤯) and it’s my first Nintendo anything ever, so I’ve got a lot of catching up to do over here
8 years late but god damn Breath of the Wild is amazing
"there are no third spaces anymore" wrong. blast furnace
One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”

Take me with you 🫀
man the chokehold this movie has on me #frankenstein
Rama Duwaji becoming the First Lady of NYC is a huge win for arty girls with french bob haircuts everywhere
I love their films but A24 is simply an impractically small paper size
I’m pretty sure reading Frankenstein at age 14 cemented a fixation in historical polar exploration in me that laid dormant until this year btw
Del Toro’s Frankenstein (In IMAX!) gets a big fat thumbs up from me. I have daydreamed about an adaptation of my favourite book this good and this visually stunning for so so long
Could stare at a Bruegel all day <3 I discovered him through playing Pentiment and learning about how his paintings inspired some of the visuals of the game. Need to see more in person
Bruegel my beloved
Reading for pleasure has fallen by 40 percent since 2000. This is not progress. You should read because it's good for your brain, your soul. You should read because our freedoms will not long endure in a post-literate world. Most of all, you should read because it's fun.
