And it has, thankfully, “achieved support.” Someone’s designed a nifty Untitled Goose Game Lego set • Eurogamer.net
Both the week’s Informality and the week’s newsletter are in the wild; this was a good morning - a worthwhile final transformation to routine.
Meanwhile, at Parenthetical Recluse: On form, Le Guin, Bowie, show trials, and THE FAR SIDE; the weekly experiment begins… 0001 / Of Change and Transformation.
”… how incredibly much we learn between our birthday and last day — from where the horsies live to the origin of the stars. How rich we are in knowledge, and in all that lies around us yet to learn."
— Ursula K. Le Guin, “The Horsies Upstairs” (2011).
Making time to watch the unwatched and never-seen among my various/nefarious watchlists. First up: DRIVE.
First time using the Forest timer app for working and I haven’t killed a tree — yet. So far, my black thumb doesn’t apply to the realm of digital time-gardening.
Finally playing ASSASSIN’S CREED: ODYSSEY: entertaining mix of WITCHER 3 and TOMB RAIDER series. (Haven’t played an AC game since the first one.)
“When the soul is without a definite aim, she gets lost; for, as they say, if you are everywhere, you are nowhere.”
— Montaigne, “On Idleness.”
Taking a wrist-cyborg sabbatical. Series 3 becoming too slow, refusing to update, and not making anything easier. I’m enough of a health data cyborg as is, what with my medically-required CGM and its actually useful health data (life/death/all that) exported to the phone.
First morning in over a year where I worked only on what I wanted to work on and not what I felt I should work on; I missed it far more than I realized.
First morning without publishing a daily blog post / essay in almost a year: strange for now, but I think it’ll be for the best in the long run - however long that run may be.
EarBliss, 28jan2020/A… MEGALITHEON, by Paleowolf. (The lapsed percussionist in me is absolutely fascinated by the use of tribal drumming in ambient music.)
