Sign in Mother 1:
"CREAM PUFF ZOO
700 METERS WEST" Zoo entrance in Mother 1.

I counted: the zoo entrance is horizontally 85 tiles away from that sign. That means each tile spans 8.235 meters. One tile is also how tall every character in the game is. In U.S. customary, that’s just over 27 feet.

Ness lower-right-facing sprite in EarthBound. Ness lower-right-facing sprite in MaternalBound Redux.

Also playing MaternalBound Redux, putatively the most polished uncensoring of Mother 2/EarthBound. To give you an idea how hard that fandom goes, the hackers actually changed Ness’s sprites to make them asymmetrical. I’ve never seen this in a 2D game in that era except Illusion of Gaia.

From Mother 25th Anniversary edition:
"CANARY VILLAGE AHEAD
Let's nurture nature together!"

Back on that Mother series typa grind. Playing the Mother 25th Anniversary Edition fan-hack. It carved new paths connecting areas as one of many quality-of-life hacks. It makes the game more pleasant to play, but I wonder whether they see the irony that Mother 3 exists to decry this exact thing.

Joe Hill in the final shot of Creepshow (1982).

I’m not saying nepotism is a force for good, but having Joe Hill play the kid in Creepshow, well, …

A food processor in the movie Creepshow (1982).

Holy shit. I have and still use this same model of food processor and it’s literally older than I am. Thank fuck whoever made it never heard of planned obsolescence.

If they’re going to let their boss foot-cuck them anyway, I find it extra pathetic that none of them thought to just secretly buy themselves the same Florsheim Oxfords but in their size. They’re just goose-flopping out in these streets like Sora from Kingdom Hearts.

It’s always weird when a YouTuber is like, “have you heard of this obscure thing,“ with no idea that the thing has like, a Brobdingnagian cult following. But I love seeing what makes the best video games tick. youtu.be/U-fv_oyYhqc

What got a similar reaction out of me were those Guy Ritchie movies. Trying not to spoil anything but after the opening of A Game of Shadows, my first thought was, “Well, I’m not going to like this movie!”

It felt like a symptom of Steven Moffat’s compulsion to add “freshness” to anything he adapts or updates, but ironically, as you intimated, the ways TV writers add appeal to older characters is itself a deceptively narrow band of ideas. I thought Lara Pulver did a good job with what she had, though.

Traveling through the school.

The traveling between locations resembles Twilight Syndrome, which Danganronpa 2 also made a reference to. I like obvious homages, things that show me how one artist can influence another.

The dialog does mention despair an awful lot, so it feels like they’re laying the groundwork!

“Um, are those nerd glasses of yours just for show? I’M the one who brought down the commander, you limp-dicked Poindexter!”

It’s too bad this translation isn’t literal. I’d love to know the Japanese for “limp-dicked Poindexter.”

“Ima, Kako, and Shouma, I want you to stay on school grounds. We can’t risk you getting attacked when you can’t fight back.”

Ima, Kako, and Shouma are homophonous with the words for present/now (今), past (過去), and abrasion (消磨).

I’d be interested to hear more about your thoughts on this! I think Irene Adler is a great character but I’ve never seen her full potential explored, even by Arthur Conan Doyle. I was looking forward to seeing her in the Ace Attorney games but it wasn’t to be.

In an apotheosis of brainrot, this is the first war in which I’ve seen U.S.’ians who lowkey want to get nuked. They think it’s serendipitous eugenics or they think it’ll score Triple Jesus Points in their death cult. This failure state has failed so fucking hard. “THE G.O.P.: NUKE ME DADDY.”
