Dear person on the other side of the conversation:
I have just reciprocated the question you asked me earlier to avoid talking about myself too much. I am trying to connect and get to know you. Your task is not give me the shortest possible answer, making me feel like my only purpose in your presence is to entertain you and confused as to whether I should keep talking or not. Help me out a little for god's sake
Signed, your very confused oomf

Dream BBQ has two components to it which have defined much of my taste in media, that being, a split character and a surreal world. In this game you play as Ena, a character with two personalities, represented by a rather on-the-nose physical color split, whose main task is to "find the boss". Being an aventure game with only minor platform and puzzle elements, I feel its stength lies in atmosphere above all else, perfectly balancing relatability of the characters with chaos of the world.
Before Dream BBQ, Ena was already traversing strange low poly landscapes with her pal Moony in an untitled video Series by Joel G. His inspiration for her design came from the painting "Girl Before A Mirror" By Pablo Picasso and the art of Romero Britto, so it's no surprise Dream BBQ is reminicient of a surreal painting you've been sucked into.
(Read more)All in all, it's been a long time since any piece of media appealed to me this strongly, I think it's a surreal masterpiece, and I strongly look forward to seeing where the next chapters lead us to.

I watched Death Parade a while back so this review is a bit late in coming, but what compelled me to write it now is that I've been listening to the outro song a lot. It's absolutely beautiful. Despite this though, I didn't vibe with the actual show that much? The parts that were good were REALLY good and the rest hovered right on the line of mediocre. Death Parade is a bit corny for my tastes, but it's not bad and I think the overall message is that you can't sort people into the categories of "deserving hapiness" and "not", specifically in a spriritual sense, which is something I always enjoy no matter how times I've seen it.
(Read more)Overall, I did enjoy Death Parade, just felt it fell flat in some areas.

If you're chronically online enough in the right spaces like I am you probably know there's been a resurgance of aesthetics from the early 2000's, aka, "y2k" (and also webcore to some extent). There's nothing wrong with these styles but the extent to which this romantisciztion has gone is getting a bit out of hand. I understand that everything is terrible right now. I don't fault you for seeking escapism. But pretending you live in another era won't fix it.
There was something this guy said, "I can't stand people who are stuck in the past and can't make something of themselves in the present" and it pissed me off at first because he was kind of dunking on 2000s fashion but I think I get where he's coming from now. The 2000s were not a good time for queer people or at least not from my perspective, and lgbt people romanticizing y2k as a whole always makes me kind of uneasy. Again, I'm not just talking about using mp3s and cutting your bangs ~like that~, I mean fully believing earlier times were superior to this one. Though I don't know much about what it would be like to live in the late 1900s it also applies there. Imagine being in that year for a little while if you must, but be honest about the fact that every era came with its downsides, and simply being in another year wouldn't necessarily save you. We should be trying to fix the present, not regress to the past.

I've started a bit of an expiremental discord server, for sharing photography, various art-forms, and niche interests. Link: https://discord.gg/kPtR2Mmw

You remember when that "raw-dogging flight" trend? Yeah well I'm doing doing something called "raw-dogging editing", which is when I decide I'm just so fucking done with re-writing this thing. - 5/17/25
I largely prefer flat and square digital aesthetics, so it sucks there's not a lot of that on computers and the net these days. Everything is made to look bald and shiny. No! I want my manila evelopes. - 5/15/25
I genuinely think it would be a fun twist on the "feeling emotion for the first time" trope if said emotion was like, cringe or annoyance. Might use that idea one day. 4/3/25
