Somehow they managed to make the game look even stranger than the first one, which I didn’t think was possible. I remember trying to watch a playthrough of the first game and it was a bit too out there for my tastes already.

I read an advanced copy of Horror Movie by Paul Tremblay and it was so good! Really recommend that one when it comes out.

Wow those are gorgeous. They look like they’re glazed ceramic!

I think this is mostly dependent on the type of apple you used. Some types withstand the cooking better and can stay more firm!

Totally agree with this. The first few hours were great but then when you get the broom and you see the huge open space that’s just really lacking. I really wish it never went to that scale.

The article just feels all weird. I’m not sure why there is such a strong push for/against keeping track of the books you read. It’s just a statistic like any other. Some enjoy it and others don’t, but it feels like each group is trying to convince the other they’re wrong for no real reason.

I personally keep track of books on Goodreads and write reviews for every one. I forget things and writing my thoughts down works for me, and it’s kinda neat to see the books I’ve read that year.

I love Maarit’s work! I have a few of her prints on my walls. I keep telling myself I don’t have any more room to buy more but they’re all so pretty!

The main trunk will stay the same height at this point, but it will get thicker as it matures. Your best bet is to encourage a few branches out and go for a wine glass shape off the main trunk. With some pruning you can make it look like a pretty nice dwarf tree!

If you cut the top off then it will only be able to grow branches at this point.

100+ is very impressive! It sounds like you essentially finish a book every 3-4 days to get those numbers. How you keep that up consistently? I feel like I can do that for a month or two and then tend to need a break before picking up more.

I usually set a goal of 24 and generally surpass it every year (at 33 this year so far). I have months where I read a ton and then others where I just don’t even pick up a book due to getting busy. But it’s a solid goal just so I can see how I’m doing that year.

The actual awards where they celebrate the games they are supposedly meant to celebrate. Some respect for the devs who poured all their time into making them instead of being rushed off the stage. And finally it would be nice for them to actually acknowledge the industries struggles this year and put a light on the fact that the gaming culture is kinda rotten and this is meant to counteract it, instead it seems to fall into the same hole.
