New on the Secret Area: Let's take a look at game composers recycling their own music, with some fairly known and lesser-known examples. asecretarea.com/2020/01/25/gam

feeling like I wanna hug or headpat people this morning.

giant bomb 

now listening to dan ryckert's final beastcast and it's still bittersweet like it was when I read the news earlier this month. :blobfrown:

Today has been a day where I slept a bunch and feel bad for doing that.

I mean, it's Saturday, but I've gotten to the habit that "if I sleep in on any day, then I have wasted that day away when I could've been doing things" which is... a negative way to look at it. :blobsad:

Oh no, a discord chat I'm on started sharing old flash movies like The Demented Cartoon Movie and Arfenhouse the Movie Too and I'm now experiencing nostalgia from 20 year old flash movies

article writing, game composers 

Totally forgot I wrote in a draft of this upcoming blog post, where I wrote that I like Richard Jacques' music despite him "being a bellend" about the Tee Lopes thing.

Yeah, that's not making it to the final version. :blobnervous:

ohai frens not from the south:

u need to understand that the south is composed of communities of people of color, queer and trans people, and disabled people, as well as vast natural ecosystems, which are all being held hostage by a system that wants them dead and the land despoiled in the name of profit.

make sure that your words and actions are in solidarity with marginalized people and with ecosystems.

One minor problem I had when writing this upcoming blog post was whether I should switch to Ogg for audio files, or stick with MP3s.

I was thinking they would be smaller. One of my tests was twice as big as the VBR MP3, for a 20 second clip.

Sticking with MP3s it is. :blobtongue:

Fuck Epic Games 

Funny how Epic buys the studio behind Rocket League and then suddenly, online support is getting patched out of MacOS and Linux versions because it's "not commercially viable". :thaenkin:

(fuck off, they could probably fund the game's future budgets ten times over with the amount of money they scam from children playing Fartnite)

tumblr, minor self-reflection 

Updated my Tumblr profile for the first time in years.

Probably since a friend from a super old community finally followed me after following her for so long.

I even made a Sonic reference because I'm funny

emails, fonts, Undertale 

I get weekly emails from Bing Rewards about various things.

This week's was font-themed. One of them was asking which font was created by Microsoft in 1994, which was Comic Sans.

The next part was talking about a SNL skit that featured the Papyrus font.

It's weird when I think of those not as fonts, but as Undertale characters. :blobtongue:

motivation (+?) 

Lately I've tried to remember each day if I've done something. It makes me feel better and not like I "wasted the day away."

Even if it's mundane house stuff.

birdsite, brands 

Okay, using the Sonic movie to advertise Jack in the Box's new tiny tacos is... certainly a thing.

What if we put Sailor Moon's head on top of Sailor Moon's body! 

It'd look something... like this!

It's Martin Luther King day, adjusted to the next monday so federal employees get more three-day weekends.

Read you a Letter From Birmingham Jail: web.cn.edu/kwheeler/documents/

A guy I respect said everyone should read it three times: first just to read it, second to appreciate/study it as a masterpiece of composition & rhetoric, and thirdly and most importantly to /deeply/ consider the message as it applies to you, today, right now, in real life. If you're white and american, that letter is addressed to *you*.

Still feeling tired today, but at least I'm getting some things around the house done, which is the more important thing.
