The most magical feeling I know is the feeling of making. We live in a magical time. There are new tools to create instant songs and images and games and tools to create tools. I love making things with these tools, being generative, bringing group chat jokes to life. Collaboration is now possible when you’re all alone. But I also love being generative in more old school ways like using the techniques found in this incredible collection, The Surrealist Book of Games.

And what are these “new tools” you speak of, that allow you to ”collaborate” while you’re all alone?

went to a cinema club - this is what it's all about. community is real! even in the city! it's not all over. i watched natural enemies and boxing helena with my friend and ally charlie. the first was awesome, the second was less so - but arguably more fun. sherilyn fenn is not a star, she is something else entirely.

🧸Sometimes remembering hurts. Sometimes remembering helps. I recommend it anyway. Remember 2009? Remember narwhals, narwhals, swimmin' in the ocean? Remember Snape, Snape, Severus Snape. Snape, Snape, Severus Snape? Remember playing Nintendogs under your sheets on your DS on a rainy night in 2007 or playing Minecraft on a cool Autumn night while your parents fought downstairs in 2012? We can never go back, but we can try through simulation and emulation. Remember making images with Microsoft paint and word art and Kid Pix, you can use them again now! Try beating The Impossible Quiz , taking care of Nintendogs, creating a penguin, building a city, playing my personal favorite GameBoy Advance Game, or finding your own childhood games memories to play again using Internet Archive and other emulation services, tools and resources.

🔣Sometimes words are not enough so I recommend using unicode characters and combinations to communicate instead.

🏛There are so many incredible online archives of everything, so much to discover and so many rabbit holes to fall into. Check out The American Diary Project, The Malware Museum, The Buttolph Collection of Menus, Hoaxes of History, The Ted Nelson Archive, The Whole Earth Index, Jocari, The Geocities Gallery just to name a few very specific ones.
