One more thing. Never work for cyptobros.

Genuinely had to check the definition before hitting send just to be sure - but it might have stuck this time

Palimpsest - it is stuck in my mind but the definition escapes me every time, whenever I go to use it I have to look it up and realise it's not quite the right word, so I have to rub it out and write over it

It's gay all the way down - and I wouldn't want it any other way. Luxury Queer Dance Video Games until the AI steals our graphics cards to write our pending obituaries

Disco Elysium x Hades - boogieing through paradise, fighting hordes and the desire to listen to the voice of your hideous necktie. Get Supergiant and Zaum on the line, we've got a monster to make

Yep - it's either a renunciation of agency or a statement of aloof contempt for anyone else (or both)

That's the nicest thing anyone's said to me this week

Oh even better, very good background indeed. I like the contrast and the reinforcement of the image being that expression of self is quite wholesome.

I didn't even realise the Hunter was named in tribute to Brent's brother - that was the last album I played a lot, need to catch up!

"The tasteful minimal white UI, the contrast with the subtle, muted but intricate William Morris print background. My god, it even hides the banner and app drawer" (Your phone looks great and your story is motivating, I need to get off my phone)

I think Mastodon might be the band I've seen the most (supp. Tool & Metallica, Reading and once in Manchester) although seeing Petbrick open 3 times in 6 months runs them close. Love the chug, the prog and there's definitely a thread of fun through. Very good band who take being silly very seriously
