inordinately pleased by the number of tinashe references I've seen in the puzzmo crossword lately

i appreciate being the resident affinity-liker that everyone alerts to tell that affinity is dead

We saw Disclosure this weekend, which was a lovely show BUT they only did one song from Alchemy, an album I *loved*. It brings to mind the question: if you go to concerts, what are your white whale songs that you've yet to see performed live?

i finished my library book without having to renew once, amazing

A couple years ago I found out I only have slight oral food allergies to many tree nuts, minor enough to eat them, very cool. Today I found out chestnut is not one of them, and the tree nut panel during my last allergy test is likely to not have included it. Not cool at all.

PinkPantheress's remix album is apparently featuring Groove Armada, Basement Jaxx, Kylie Minogue, and Kaytranada, so a love letter specifically to my household.

Every day, I pray for a world where everyone is kind and respectful of each other, regardless of gender. May unreasonable attacks against transgender people end🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 May today be filled with happiness and love for you all🤍

This cover design. 🤌

finally some good news!!

hello and good day to my fellow bi friends!! 🩷💜💙

A little housekeeping thing. The world has been on fire and absolutely distressing. I am unlikely to ever comment on current events here, not from lack of caring, but because I have other spaces for processing those feelings.

I only got to spend a few hours in Luxembourg's capital, but it was enough to experience a charming and steep cityscape. Imagine the very vertical level design of a dark souls world, but well before ruin and poison swamps overtake it.

I'm really excited to share more from the trip later! For the moment: I finally got to see this beauty in person and nearly cried of happiness.

I was SO anxious about this trip beforehand: I've never been away from my kids this long; my global travel muscles have atrophied; what if I'm a professional sham and everyone realizes they've spent $$$ to send an idiot abroad. It was a relief and so fulfilling that everything turned out so well.

I had not gotten more than 4 hours of continuous sleep in a week due to jetlag. I am now home in my own bed and just got 7. I feel superhuman!!!!!

Next week I'll be traveling internationally for work. I am excited but maybe more anxious for a number of reasons, including the decision of whether or not to bring a book I've been excited to read, only have in physical format, and said format probably weighs as much as me.

Experienced the sensation of finishing a book that was difficult to get through and that I did not enjoy on average, but I am very glad to have seen to the end.

I designed and deployed the Game Changer season 7 ARG! If you got to play—I hope you liked it! We built five games from scratch and the world’s funniest flowchart~

I am once again asking you to admire my name on a site i designed and built, but *this* time posted by the ceo of dropout bsky.app/profile/samr...

I'm pretty sure I have buddies here who like Game Changer? Do y'all know about the ARG this season? Or at least the minigames site? Because it meeeee minigames.dropout.tv/game/credits

The mini games site was designed by @kimnguyen.bsky.social! My buddy Chris was our ARG consultant! It was a fantastic job and I’m genuinely a little sad it’s over.

Oh hey Pillow Fight is in Variety! Me and @horsephone.bsky.social made all the video games on Game Changer Season 7; Jo designed the whole ARG and I wrote pretty much every line of code behind it. 😊

no *you're* almost crying watching medalist's approach to teaching children resilience and coping with failure

THE FIRST TAKE has my faves celebrating 25 years and killing it youtu.be/r5S1T93jtAk?...

My new years resolutions to get back into watching movies and reading books are doing great and have helped me a lot during Unprecedented Times. We're halfway through the year so I'm going to start another one to listen to more recent albums because I can!!

I am thinking about how much I like the violin ornaments in "Challengers: Match Point" from the movie ost because it reminds me of legendary kpop bop "Sixth Sense" by Brown Eyed Girls. youtu.be/63k6AfvLsso?... youtu.be/tdH1GwyZJuY?...

sci fi shows dodge the expositional monologue challenge

winding down from a day solo parenting 3 small kids with the latest puzzle game and charli xcx's coachella stream. the brand is strong tonight

Jackie Chan-style Oldboy martial arts movie starring a queer lady with big muscles is basically one of the best movie pitches I've ever heard.

I've been very happy with my increased movie-watching habit this year! I'm pretty sure I've watched more in the first 3 months of 2025 than all of 2024. I've started tracking on letterboxd. I would love more friends there! This is me: letterboxd.com/kimburglar/

mamoru hosoda pretty consistently disappoints me with his stories, but his talent for spectacle and depicting charming little communities keeps me banging on the table asking for another round

#3goodthings because @aetataureate.bsky.social does it and it lights up my TL! 1. Creative project got positive feedback today! 2. I made a little progress in MHW after a busy week. 3. I went into DC with good friends for delicious, beautiful food at a place I've been wanting to try for years.

The AI usage that currently makes me angriest: summarizing long form articles or even books. Stop discouraging folks from reading closely!

I've been making fun things on deadline again in my spare time. Part of me is like uhuhuhuuu I want to be hunting monsters while another is like mmmm yes my brain has needed to flex like this
