I was watching some Direct reactions and I love what YouTube’s autotranslation did to this Japanese streamer who was excited about the Ocarina remake

“, this is troublesome. I'm in a bit of a predicament. Oh no, this is a problem.”

This photo I took at E3 2014 is kind of misleading (I think they were out getting lunch maybe?), but it's always cracked me up and felt like a potent metaphor for how the show was going haha

I got one of those thin wallets that holds like four cards and magnetizes to your phone and when it’s detached it looks like an interactable from a scifi video game

IGN followed up on this www.ign.com/articles/don...

You said in your talk that it's more fun to destroy things that are beautiful. Why do you think that is?

Motokura: That's a tough question. I think part of it is the surprise element, something that was so elegantly put together, beautiful. When it's destroyed, it goes to nothing. And that gap between these two states is what creates delight and surprise, I think.

Did you ever during development go to one of those destruction rooms where you get a bat and you just break things?

Motokura: No, I've never been, but now that you described it it sounds kind of fun. We would've wanted to go. So do they have a lot of beautiful things for you to destroy?

Some, but I also think you can bring your own things. So if you want to destroy your own beautiful things, you can.

Motokura: Interesting.

something I noticed for the first time rereading The Hobbit along with Shelved by Genre: this dude LOVES to hit his head and remember nothing more

Bilbo came at it before it could disappear and stuck it with his sword right in the eyes. Then it went mad and leaped and danced and flung out its legs in horrible jerks, until he killed it with another stroke; and then he fell down and remembered nothing more for a long while.

Quite suddenly Dori, now at the back again carrying Bilbo, was grabbed from behind in the dark. He shouted and fell; and the hobbit rolled off his shoulders into the black-ness, bumped his head on hard rock, and remembered nothing more.

"The Eagles!" cried Bilbo once more, but at that moment a stone hurtling from above smote heavily on his helm, and he fell with a crash and knew no more.

It's my classic catchphrase, "What matters is the boy's been doing well for himself, so you folks can rest easy, too"

This thumbnail makes me laugh every time YouTube puts it in my recommendations. You can almost hear him sucking air through his teeth

The days are still getting shorter for a little while, but where I live we’ve at least passed the earliest sunset of the season. All downhill from here, right? 😬

Hi! I found the setlist, but unfortunately they didn’t print a date on this one 😅 I’m 80% sure this is 2004-05-22, but I can’t be positive…

Isn't...isn't Australia more than one time zone? (I was looking up when the Game Awards air)

shoutout to this Flecktones setlist I got signed in 2009 where Howard thought my name was Pam (probably misled by that long-stemmed D in Béla's signature there)

A signed concert setlist, with three of the signatures made out to Dan and one made out to Pam
