🪿🔔Honk! Untitled Goose Exhibition is now open at @ACMI 🔔🪿
What a bizarre and lovely thing to see 18 months of spreadsheets and big ideas turn into an actual *room* - a big, beautiful, silly exhibition about a small, beautiful silly game. Can't wait for you to visit ✨✨

Reading an article about the formation of the concept of "gameplay" in 80s/90s UK game magazines, and how that created a culture that (still to this day!) shackles the average person's mind as to what a game can be https://t.co/goij8bWqNz

Only two actors in it that understood what movie they were in. Deserve their flowers for it

[Dr Melissa L Gustin @Hosmeriana]

This is a revolting headline. The civic art collection is an historic public good, not a cash asset. If anything, the collection should be nationalised.

[Mr. Chau @Srirachachau]

There's so many things including so many old cartoons and books that would be lost to time without the Internet Archive, terrible to burn it all down

[L., MA @leslieleeiii]

People will say with a straight face that this is a bad movie. Real sickos out there.

[UofG Government Relations @UofGGovRel]
