2025.08.23 // Currently watching: House of Five Leaves (さらい屋五葉). New third favourite anime?? Really wonderful. Everyone looks tired. Not to be confused with confusing book I recently finished.

In other news--today I am packing my great-grandfather's 90-100 y.o. magyar-angol phrasebook, for donation to a small Hungarian cultural museum in Ohio, where he was from. Every time I pick the book up, another small piece falls off.

Hello--I was having a conversation with melvins-world about Bryce3D and went looking for sites talking about it. I saw your post 3yr ago on computer-updated, who doesn't appear to be active. You mentioned you were a fellow Bryce enjoyer.

Melvins-world recommended I upload some of my old Bryce creations from a summer camp in '06. I was wondering if you know of anybody anywhere on the web making a Bryce archive or collection. Thanks!

2025.08.21 // Plates are being added to Sable! All eleven TRACKs from the first novel will soon have illustrations. Check em out! Also thanks to the new followers!!

Fantastic!! I read your post on jank and was wondering if you'd played Pathologic? I'm unfamiliar myself but I've watched Hbomberguy's video on it like a dozen times.

I haven't, sadly. Heard a lot of good things about it; it encapsulates the jank perfectly!

You're welcome! Your adventure is really fun to get lost in.

I can't explain how happy I am to hear that! It's exactly the vibe I wanted.

2025.08.19 // Forgot to mention having read two other works since starting Sable--V and Crying of Lot 49. The prior--will require a second pass to understand at all, certainly before moving onto Mason & Dixon.

CL49--fucking great, the Pynchon I would recommend starting with. Can't believe he thinks so little of it. End of Area X dragged on cuz I wasn't enjoying it. Now time for Pale Fire--thanks to ancientcrypt for the suggesstion! Moshfegh still isn't in stock. :(

Would appreciate if someone would fly an Amazon Drone carrying My Year of Rest and Relaxation directly into my abdomen, thank you. Or I could just check another bookstore.

I love conlangs and I love the use of plain black divs!

Thoughts on ST up to ch. 9 (let me know if I'm posting too much) --- "three flights of non-stairs" is living in my head forever. Love your repeated use of McDonald's. "Acid tastes sour / this is irony" incredibly fire line. Perversion & beauty are one and the same (!!!)

Ironic--I hit my comment limit for the day right in the middle of that post. I even signed up for premium, not realizing it wouldn't change that. Aah ok where was I.

"I thought that was in my head" -- working on multiple levels. Really like how the genre scope and voice keep expanding. LOVE the horror of ch. 8.

2025.08.17 // Felix Biederman once remarked that Zack Snyder is not a fascist; he's simply bisexual. Had someone approached him early in his career and informed him, we wouldn't have had to suffer through 300, Batman v Superman, et. al. Someone dear to me, junior year of high school, approached me with the same news. "Alex, you're bisexual; you'll be happier if you just accept it." And look how I turned out!

If only someone could travel to 1994 and visit this knowledge upon Amelia. Perhaps then the whole story would have never happened; we'd be left with the "Breaking Bad set in Canada" meme. Alas.
