This rules. Like a mysterious metropolis from a Dying Earth story or a Spaghetti Western town being harassed by a gang of outlaws.

I'm glad to be back out today helping shovel snow for neighbors who are unable to shovel themselves, but I also recognize that this is not a permanent solution. That is why I'm voicing my support for a city sidewalk plowing program. #PlowTheSidewalks #WalkableWinters

@dan_abramov The unskippable ad is the eternal ad

[david byron queen @byron_queen]

finally reading House of Leaves

@TegeusC @ReReadingWolfe @PynchonPod I’ve only read Gravity’s Rainbow but even in that there are similarities. Slothrop and Severian can both be read as complete fools being battered by the tides of conspiracy, secret geniuses, or anything in between.

@Notafiredemon @ryanqnorth Pavement fans are a rare breed

[Mickey Smith @mickey_is_codin]

@IanVanagas @dan_abramov Yep, that’s exactly it! Fun read

@deimosremus Either way you’re in for a treat. The book is incredible. And Draco Concordans is really useful as a supplement.

[Mickey Smith @mickey_is_codin]

@deimosremus Something around the 270’s and the again around 300 if I remember right. I’ll find exactly when I’m by the book. Really threw me lol, it’s a pretty complex plot so I really was lost when it happened

[Mickey Smith @mickey_is_codin]

@deimosremus Just read TDW, so good. But be careful of page numbering when you read. I had the same Tor edition and had ~8 pages inserted in the wrong place in the book. Confused the hell out of me

Settai Komura. Snowy Morning. 1942. Hanging on in there for the light. I love his work for the flat flat flatiness, but still depth.

I spent a ton of time this year writing about "Code Art" from the olden times to the present. I'm going to share some of the bibliography for the olden stuff over the next few days... for fun :)

@falsegod_vy @FilmUpdates Next you’re gonna tell me the new A24 MacBeth isn’t a ripoff of Throne of Blood!
