A Hedonist by heart

I think all live-action directors should have at least some experience with animation because the reason why Project Hail Mary is so visually stunning made so much sense when you find out that both of the directors have also written/directed some of the biggest animated movies of the last decade (Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, The Lego Movie, the Spiderverse movies etc.) like those are people who fundamentally understand visual media. Fuck Christopher “I need to stop filming because a rainbow got into my shot” Nolan I need more directors who know how colours work.

Hey I’ve been having a lot of generalized fatigue recently and I appreciate the notes on this post, so I thought I’d put it back in circulation.

microwave a potato for ten minutes, then cut into chunks and smash on an olive oil-ed baking sheet. Bake in oven for 20 minutes at approx. 450 F with other veggie of your choice. Salt and spice/ top with whatever you like, I did chili oil today. Nutritionally reasonable and vegetarian

Rice made in the rice cooker, using whatever carton of broth I have on hand. Add some butter, mix an egg into it, and microwave for a minute to make sure the egg is cooked. Top with shredded cheese if you want.

I love following walk throughs, and save scumming, and cheating, and easy mode, and looking up how other people solved problems. I will always do whatever I want to make a game an enjoyable experience for me.

I feel like we really lost something when we started looking at writing as a reader-centric product meant to appeal to the desires of a specific audience rather than a writer-centric approach of someone writes whatever particular thing particular compels them/whatever weird thing the demons in their head want to talk about, and people out there who are also compelled, and/or relate, find that writing. A lot of discussions of writing really center around what readers want rather than a writer's exploration. Sometimes as a reader I don't know what I want. I click on a fic or pick up a book I'm not sure about but that looks interesting, and I love it. Reading what I expect to get is it's own joy, but we always need to expand our horizons and not get mad at creators for not always writing what we want/expect.
