Miyazaki replied, "I never think about the audience." #D23 Two separate photos of Pete Docter and Hayao Miyazaki, respectively.

SIEGFRIED (1876)

Today is International Women's Day—a fitting date to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Hawkmoon roleplaying game and its lead designer, RPG trailblazer Kerie Campbell-Robson. In 1986, 20 year old Kerie was one of the very first female lead designers in the industry.

A tower circled by the moon and clouds, a skull with gems inset in the eyes in the foreground. Pencil, watercolour wash, chalk and White paint on toned paper. Colour applied.

There the Gibbelins lived and discreditably fed.

screenshot of a website. title: Synth or Gundam? text: Is XXXG-00W0 a synth or a Gundam? buttons that say "synth" and "gundam" below is a score box with zeros for total score, correct, and incorrect

put this thing i made back online. it's called Synth or Gundam? synthorgundam.com

I'm done thinking about stupid shit on here. The New York Times op ed page. Romantasy novelists applauding 9/11. From now on I'm thinking full time about a French private investigator with a hook for a hand named Le Chat Diabolique (The Diabolical Cat) who I just made up. He lives above a bakery

like a cozy local pub called The Horse & War Crimes

The talk to your friends app and the witness the horrors app being the same app is not great for the mental health is it

"You wont find runes as interesting when you realise most inscriptions are thoroughly mundane or post conversion!"

me looking at a comb that says comb:

"you don't solve the integral, you run a distributed map-reduce in Erlang!"

I loved Dunk's whole internal struggle during that scene before finally (correctly) settling on 'you know what, good for them'

images you can smell (complimentary)

i see Firefly still weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living, huh

Pretending the Creature and Elizabeth got to run off together and snuggle, the end. #frankenstein

at last, the horse has come for trudeau

the purpose of a rube goldberg machine is what it does eventually

there should be some Markdown syntax that, like.. lets you indicate that the enclosed text should gradually diminish in size over its length. Would really give "noooooooooo" the plaintive feel it deserves

I also want subscripts and superscripts but don't let's be hasty

me when a cowboy makes a spurious claim

anyway I am genuinely stoked for The Bride Factorial

just took the bins out and saw the house a few doors down has a really bright red light over the front door. I was like ... y'all running a brothel down there? Nothing would be wrong with that, to be clear, it's just a little surprising

Meshuggah, "I"

Breaking out “scope creep” and “what problem are we trying to solve?” at the neighborhood meeting

new art show in the hallway outside the office. There is a print of a butterfly entitled Faded Monarch and I'm like... my brother in Christ that is a tiger swallowtail

I really hope that's the joke

my most toxic trait is that if a title has an exclamation point at the end, when I'm speaking out loud I will pronounce it "factorial" instead.

I also do this for titles with a + rather than an & or and spelled out, like Romeo Plus Juliet

The Tumbler Ridge newspaper puts it better than I could

HTML in email was a major milestone on this path. Again, the very idea should've just been met with a hard nope, because it started as opt-in and quickly became practically unavoidable

I am convinced that there's a straight path from "wouldn't it be fun to run code in a web page" to the current fuckass web of half a dozen walled gardens spying on you constantly
