Ferdinand Von Keyblade and Bip Bip just turned 5 last week. Wild how it's true that they're as much a baby as your 21 years young baby??? Amazing how that works!

A white and brown tabby cat sitting on a carpet. His back right leg is sticking out awkwardly.

A very similar white and brown tabby sitting in a kitchen. She is pear-shaped.

FF7 NPC got that Peter Griffin fit

A screenshot of the original Final Fantasy 7. There's an NPC with the same white shirt, green pants, and brown shoes as Peter Griffin. The only difference is that the white shirt is a tank top

Peter Griffin from the cartoon "Family Guy"

I have the same copy and I'm reading it right now!! This is my first Le Guin book and loving it a lot!

The cover of Ursula K LeGuin's book "A Wizard of Earthsea." The cover art is a medieval spire-filled city that looks built up onto itself with a dragon's body meandering through the buildings. The city is surrounded by waves of water.

No way I saw those same guys earlier today!

THE FUTURE IS TODAY

A picture of me in a hotel room with a steam deck on my lap playing modded Minecraft in a dedicated server that's running from my home PC. Many hacky things had to be done to get this to work.

The same source leaked me the latest TES 6 docs:

A screenshot of Google Docs that reads "The Elder Scrolls 6" in title font. Under that are three bullet points that list: 1. Imperialism. 2. Elves, with a question mark. 3. Mudcrabs, which is underlined and bolded.

"Untitled" (Portrait of Ross in L.A.)" has stuck with me and I still get choked up when I explain its significance to someone. I love it because 1. I think it gets close to what I think art inherently is 2. while I don't know what AIDs is like, I know how wasting chronic disease feels 3. candy

A pile of candy heaped up against a tan wood floor and white wall. The candy consists of individually wrapped pieces of candy, and the pile weighs 175 pounds, representing the body weight of the artist's partner.

Which room in a data center is closest to the propylon chambers? The electrical room?

a screenshot from the game Morrowind, specifically of a Propylon Chamber, which act as teleports to other areas. The chamber is very dark and purple, brick walls, stone floor, and two thin "spikes" on either side of the room. Each spike has four more spikes around it that have glowing red magic energy pouring out from them.

Can confirm (also I read your Alt text, and I don't know if it was part of the press pack, but was in the collectors edition for PC, which is different from the GOTY edition for PC that I also have)

The same pewter Ordinator miniature from the original post, but on a cutting mat and with a measuring tape that confirms that the miniature is in fact 2 and a half inches tall.

How it feels getting a steam deck a year and a half ago and a PS5 last year

Two brands, two LotR brand partnerships. Moleskine uses AI for their promotional art (and will not say if their notebook covers are AI) while Blackwing goes as far as crediting their artist. Yea Blackwing sells bougie (but actually really nice) pencils, but what I actually care about is the effort

The promo "art" of Moleskine's Lord of the Rings collection. In the bottom corner reads "imagined by Moleskine, generated by AI".

The store page for Blackwing showing the box set of pencils, a brief description of the set, and a credit to Mike Hawthorne, the artist who designed the art around the pencils.

Caves of Qud

A picture from the snail farming guide that reads:

"66. Each pen you build
must also keep the snails safe
from their enemies.
Snails have many enemies.
You must be careful
to protect them from."

The image cuts off, but would continue to list predators of snails.

I'm glad people are out there enjoying the new tomodachi life, but I'm here still playing the OG

Higher, *higher!*

It's a great time when @99pi.org releases a series that's basically like the How It's Made but for infrastructure. Anyways as an art warm up this morning I quickly designed a pin. Always Consider Floating Luggage

An enamel pin design of a water-logged suitcase floating in water. Around the outside of the design reads "Always consider Floating Luggage," which is a reference to the most recent 99 Percent Invisible podcast episode.

Prime example of Daily Horse Kicked Head

A screenshot from twitter user Merman Melville that reads: "Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it's probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day."

This is a good meme but I feel like this is almost literally Caves of Qud's diseases:

A screenshot from Caves of Qud that reads: "You are cured of glotrot. Your tongue regrows."

Slightly related but now at the top of every tab, it shows *another* "please bro try my AI seriously bro please" AI push in addition to the one that pops up when opening a new tab. Clown behaviour

A screenshot of a new Google Chrome tab, showing one push to use their shitty AI along the top bar, and another push directly below it in the search bar.

Started another Stardew Valley TTRPG campaign tonight. The game loop is really slow but the last campaign ended with a months-long LARP which was pretty unique mechanic in the RPG space

What I'm referring to as the "Stardew Valley Tabletop Role Playing Game", is actually a series of nursery pots, some empty, some filled with soil. White pepper seeds can be barely seen in the top right-most group. The large bin contains more soil.

Another picture of the nursery pots. Two labels read: "pepperoncini" and "Cajun"

Incredible technology this deserves more money than a datacenter

A screenshot from the website Your AI Slip Bores Me. I ask the "robot" which is actually another random person, "Robot, give me boat to float away from problems." The reply is a hastily drawn boat going over comically large waves.

My week got away from me so here's a late low-poly rat (more mousy than rat but whatever) 🐀

A side-by-side of a UV unwrapped rat texture on the left, and the textured mesh on the right. Screenshot from Blender.

Another angle of the low polygon rat textured mesh.

Bip Bip and Ferdinand would agree

A fluffy tabby cat sprawled out under a chair awkwardly. She put herself there while rolling around asking for belly rubs, which she got.

The Pokopia font and screenshot background. However the test reads "With this character's death, the thread of prophecy is severed." which is the first half of the warning message from the video game Morrowind. The warning appears if the player kills an NPC that is critical to the main quest.

This weekend we start planting seeds in nursery pots, I've been waiting for this since coving our garden last year

The poorly drawn meme of two people, the right person has a crazed look on their face and is holding the left person's shoulder tight enough that they're bleeding

gamecube port when?

Shawn@shawn-in-3d· Feb 18

Meme of two posts. The first post reads "Wait hold on gotta look something up."

The second post reads "ok yeah this is funny."

Been watching my partner play FFX-2

Yuna from Final Fantasy Ten-Two, with a poorly photoshopped hand holding a joint made to look like she's offering a puff to the viewer. The text above reads "High Summoner?" The text below read "haha yeah."

My partner and I always do some baking on Valentine's Day. Last year was heart sugar cookies, the year before was a heart cake. This year, so many mini cupcakes 😍
