Ready for NG+ - beat Shadow of the Erdtree this morning! The last boss took me a whole ass week 💀

My niece can text me now, and she sent me a letter to apologize for not texting me often enough. I replied with my own letter reassuring her of course, but I am really into whatever is going on in her brain that made pen pal-ing the answer here. I will be doing my best to keep it going.

I think I’m gonna die in this house

Dug into this absolutely wild thing happening to Finji. The deeper I read into their increasingly baffling conversations with TikTok "support" the more I felt like I was on something. www.ign.com/articles/tun...

Night in the Woods' publisher says TikTok is creating and running racist GenAI ads for its games without permission. https://bit.ly/4kKnB5L

Surprising absolutely no one, Mary Shelley has fallen in love with Ranni

Desperately trying to romanticize being relentlessly pummeled by snow this winter

Been playing Elden Ring again: it’s winter and I’m longing for gothic castles and a rotting civilization that isn’t my own. I named my character Mary Shelley because that freak would have loved this game.

I decided to start using this little desk for my offscreen time & hobbies instead of constantly fighting the distraction of my PC at my work desk, and wow it’s already made such a difference in my focus & screen time!

Making the most of reading outdoors while I still can

The bees are still busy in my garden, though they sleep a bit later these days

The news is out, so lucky to get to adapt this marvelous story that changed YA as we know it today, please look forward to it!✨

Autumn is my true beach season

I took a different turn in the woods and it lead to this 😍

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet. After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵

I wouldn’t trade being a morning person for anything. Also, I think I might need to read everything Shirley Jackson has ever written.

Usual June Dev Update! 👀 This month we've been designing all of the more "advanced" creatures you'll encounter and fight as you progress in the game. It's been a fun challenge. Here's some thumbnails from our contract artist Audre Schutte! Read about our process here: finji.co/news/2025/09...

It looks like potatoes and molasses outside today

I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS BOOK

spiced cacao with tahini today. my stomach doesn’t love coffee anymore but my soul still does, so I’m getting creative

The buff-tip moth (Phalera bucephala) has mastered a very particular kind of camouflage. When they close their wings up, they resemble a broken twig. Native to large parts of Europe, there's regional pattern variation that reflects the local tree species. This one best resembles birch twigs?
