Big post day here for fans of 1980’s British auteur directors who struggle to get anything made these days.

Still looking for someone to join us at Hollow Ponds making fun little videos, it could be you! bsky.app/profile/holl...

Boooooo, I used to love going here for cheesesteaks during GDC, so good: www.sfchronicle.com/food/article...

My vibe whilst playing Pokopia: bsky.app/profile/mond...

THE GREAT BRITISH SEWING BEE: oh my this is fun, oh what larks THE GREAT BRITISH REAPING BEE: well this is a spot of bother and make no mistake, what on earth

I guess my feeling about that Pokopia blog doing the rounds is “ok, sure, well go write about the games that mean something to you then”. Like it doesn’t really bite down on anything about games criticism in a wider context, it’s just I don’t think this one game is worth discussing.

Rolling dice on a city block once more. Moves Of The Diamond Hand comes to Steam Early Access, April 13. www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2dE...

Dub versions of Erik Satie tunes, a silly idea but actually surprisingly good: spb-hamburg.bandcamp.com/album/meets-...

Very funny to see a lot of people suddenly be OK with stuff like gen AI because someone they like is using it in their videos to "satirize" it. My guys, the lake still gets boiled even if you are only ironically using it.

Hollow Ponds is looking for a Social Media Content Creator to make video content for our next major release. This contract role is remote with a preference for UK and adjacent time zones. Job spec can be found here: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/hpxxj... Please get in touch if you have any questions!

You Are the Film 君は映画 The directorial debut of Makoto Ueda (writer of Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes and River) will be getting its world premiere in competition at the 44th Brussels Fantastic Film Festival BIFFF this April! www.bifff.net/product/you-...

Diana Henry’s A Bird In The Hand is one of the best cookbooks of all time but it also features the worst cookbook index of all time where nearly every recipe in the book is listed under chicken.

Saw Son Of The White Mare last night and not stopped thinking about it since. Absolutely stunning animation and colours and a very silly story about 3 deeply stupid gods. Felt like nothing I’d seen before. youtu.be/oQpIt3WgDHg

Hello, my name is Joonas Turner and I am looking for new projects to work on. I have a long experience working in all kinds of games. I am primarily looking for work as a Sound Designer and Music Composer but I am useful as a Game Designer as well. #gamedev #indiedev #gameaudio

My 6 month old, crying because she rolled onto her front: “this sucks, why is this happening to me, this must stop now” My 6 month old, seconds after being turned back over: “time to roll over onto my front, can’t beat that, best thing”

Sure, Bi Gan’s Resurrection is visually stunning but it is also essentially arthouse Quantum Leap.

"My life had a certain drabness to it – I now attribute that to consuming poor-quality water for so long without realising." - I love when you read a sentence you are going to be thinking about for the rest of the day.

Watched Kurosawa's Bright Future last night, love that horrible crunchy 2000's digital camera vibe it has, some classic millennium alienation.

as a jrpg fan, my primary interests in video games are raising and lowering sewer gates, such as to manipulate the water level

If you ever choose to depict a tanuki without absolutely massive nuts then you are a coward frankly. bsky.app/profile/mond...

Exotic Dancer And Robot Photography by Gaston Paris Paris, France (c.1935)

Most of the changes Pokopia makes from Dragon Quest Builders are great but I hate having to use the camera to aim at the blocks I'm destroying/placing. Let me look up and down with a button for placement stuff please.

Every couple of months I buy a big bottle of mango lassi as a treat and drink it basically instantly. Imagine a world where water tasted as good as mango lassi man.

If someone has something like “news junkie” or “current affairs addict” or “politics whizz” in their bio then you know you are about to read some of the most unhinged shit going.

Onibaba (1964)

Sirāt might be the dumbest film I've seen so far this year but I can't deny I had a good time watching it.

Been walking around my house singing this and throwing my arms around since seeing The Testament Of Ann Lee last night, maybe the Shakers were onto something: youtube.com/watch?v=BiFh...

Gave up waiting for a UK release of Boys Go To Jupiter and just imported it from the US.

Pokopia is absolutely slamming so far, Dragon Quest Builders fans stay winning.

“But, rest assured, this will be the sixth time we’e made a quote meme about what your favourite videogames are, and we have become exceedingly efficient at it.”

The Testament Of Ann Lee - 100% my shit, absolute banger film.

Painting of our toilet at night

I literally watched an episode of Tipping Point once where someone wanted to use the money to buy a prosthetic leg and he didn’t win. One of the bleakest things I’ve ever seen on daytime telly. bsky.app/profile/head...

Kofi: www.ko-fi.com/robfearon PayPal: www.paypal.com/paypalme/ret... Thanks in advance and sorry again.

Righty. I’m passing the hat again. Sorry, everything is still shit here. I’m out of money and nearly out of electricity and gas again, never mind food. Bonus! Got the hell meeting on the 10th to see if the family stays together or not. Signs are glum looking, the kids are not dealing with it well.

I wish we were launching this in the halcyon days of a better Twitter when we had much more reach but hopefully there's some aspiring publisher or currently struggling publisher (lol, aren't we all) who might need this and see it! Bursaries for small presses coming very soon!

Folks, please Do Not enter the Yuk Fun lunar new year charity raffle for just £3 before midnight GMT tonight. They’ve been posting pics of the different prizes & I would like to win them all and not have you win them all. Thanks. yukfun.shop/products/lun...

At this point it's safe to conclude that Labour aren't doing things out of some desire to win Reform votes or whatever but that they are a deeply racist government looking to enact cruelty for cruelty's sake.

Bought myself a little creature who can play music.

Went to see All You Need Is Kill tonight, my main reference point for it is that one Hito Steyerl essay where she talks about the Tom Cruise version of it, I wonder what she’d make of this new version.

It’s wild that people feverishly talk about a Bloodborne remake as if that game is not available to play right this second on the PS5 and still an absolute banger.

okay, here it is, the five key takeaways from this by-election: 1. Denton Kebab House 2. The Crispy Cod, Denton 3. Reddish Tandoori, Gorton 4. Cottage Chippy, Gorton 5. The Continental Takeaway, Denton

Just got blocked by someone for being a “reply guy” when I didn’t even reply to them. B-tier Radio 4 comedians from the 90’s, please learn the correct lingo before throwing a strop that your snarky bland centrism doesn’t work anymore.
