@Defunctland watching an @RoadshowPBS clip show (S28E22 “I was there”) and it showed a 1998 appraisal of a a collection of animation cells c1938 brought in by an Ink and Paint girl. If only the appraiser had asked if she’d attended a party at the Lake Norconian…
update on my 7yo’s arkanoid obsession. They made it to level 3 and got a high score of 30,000 and are very proud. They have now branched out to Super Sprint thanks to @chessjerk and declare the white car is “a jerk”.
Ridiculously happy, amazed, humbled, and frankly in disbelief to announce I’m writing a book with my publisher Hachette Go, coming out in 2025. So excited to be able to say this is officially happening! If somehow you follow me here but not on Instagram, head over there for more.
While watching a video of crabs clapping to music:
Kid: This sounds like it’s from 1972
Me: 1972?
K: yeah, the song with all the people clapping
Me: “Clapping Music”?
K: yeah by the guy who is 87
Me: Steve Reich?
K: yeah the one who wrote “It’s Gonna Rain Pt 1” in 1965
Me: 🤯
My 7 year old has access to almost every video game one could ask for because my spouse and I are nerds. But ever since January they’ve watched @chessjerk’s @GamesDoneQuick arkanoid run at least once a week and the only game they want to play is Arkanoid. AGDQ 2035 maybe?
Got some big projects I don’t want to do, thus I am frantically refreshing my podcast feed waiting for @FITWR top tens to drop and make the work a bit easier.
I don’t exist on twitter hardly at all but this interview was so refreshing. It was great to talk about the education side of what I do (and did I refer to @tobyrush without using his name? I sure did)
Reminder: I'm going to be at PAX this week, my first time attending in many, many years, and the first time I'm attending an event and hosting a panel on behalf of Crossplay!! Hope to see you there!
I’ve been a long time admirer of @patrickklepek’s work, and being quoted in this article for his new Substack endeavor- Crossplay- is an honor. Check it out! https://t.co/7gGSbWxpzW
Apologies for the glare but apparently if a lightning strikes your car you’ve attached a lazy korok to, the korok says “zappity zap!” They keep saying it every time.
@cprwarner Ooooo you may like the shirt I just got in the mail yesterday! It says “I am the colfax I speak for the streets” featuring a lot of iconic colfax businesses
