Games I Completed in 2025 #13:
Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

Another annual replay knocked out. I love this game.

I beat Link's Shadow without the bottom left corner trick this time. I had to rewind the whole fight a dozen times to do it, but I won fair and square. 😎

PEOPLE: - Shigeru Miyamoto, age 66. Creator of Zelda, Mario, & more. - Satoru Iwata, age 59. President of HAL from 1993-2000, President of Nintendo from 2002-2015. QUOTE: Miyamoto: Iwata may have passed on, but the company is going strong. Thanks to all the ideas and systems that he left behind, our young hires have been able to thrive. What makes me sad is that if I have a crazy idea over the weekend, there isn’t anybody I can tell about it on Monday morning. When I’m eating lunch, he isn’t there to say ‘I think I’ve figured out your problem,’ which leaves me feeling stuck. I really miss him.

You’re all doing great by the way, very proud of you 😘

PEOPLE: - Shigeru Miyamoto, age 50. Producer of The Legend of Zelda (1986) and Ocarina of Time. QUOTE: Miyamoto: [When making Ocarina of Time] we thought of how we should translate the fun of the first Zelda game into a 3D environment, so that it made you feel free in this world you’re exploring. Sometimes you remember a place nostalgically after some years. [laughs] When you grow up and go back to a place you thought was huge as a kid, like a street, you realize there is barely any space for a car to fit in. So, after remembering the time when you were growing up, you realize there was a time when you saw things like that. Thinking it was a good idea to have that inside the game, we had some very narrow places and we included the game mechanic of going back to those spots [as adult Link].

PEOPLE: - Shigeru Miyamoto, age 39. Producer of A Link to the Past. QUOTE: Miyamoto: One idea [cut from A Link to the Past] was with the lantern: if you used it on a grassy area, it would cause a huge brushfire. If you cut a little circle of grass around you, you could safely stand there in the middle of it! … In swamp areas, you could use a shovel to dig a ditch, and then if you bombed the swamp breakwater it would cause the water to rush into the hole you’d dug. That idea was actually half-complete… if we’d had another six months, we might have been able to make it a reality.

TOMORROW 💜

OoT's Great Fairies are so iconic.

Hello, happy #Linktober.

Since the government shutdown our main source of income is kind of gone until Washington reaches an agreement.

Any help is appreciated. I have a car payment and I need to be able to get through twitchcon since this is an unexpected lost of income for my household.

I'm not a huge Linkle fan, because Tingle haunts my nightmares, but I really love this costume and design. It's not just that you can always win me over with pink hair and a green tunic. #zelda #nintendo

style for him. Yet, he brings to it the excellent craftsmanship he is celebrated for. He printed a slight variant of a 17th-century Flemish tapestry called "Moses Saved From the Waters" onto cotton and cut it so the image is continuous over the front closure. It works perfectly in the space.

Although not a showstopper, one of my favorite pieces from @museelouvre.bsky.social's Fashion and Art exhibit was this 2017 Dries Van Noten coat. Van Norten, a Belgian designer, a part of the "Antwerp 6," is known for his prints, which are usually bold and bright. Therefore, the coat appears out of

"please rate your package delivery" i mean ill click the smiley face because i assume it impacts the poor bastard who delivered it but i must impress upon you that forcing both him and i into this situation is an act of utter inhumanity and furthermore that god frowns upon your deeds

the masks; this is a featured element of Maison Margiela's shows, asking the audience to focus on the clothes, not the model. They also reflect the house's history of keeping its designers anonymous. Here are the other masks in this collection. #Fashionhistory @museelouvre.bsky.social

back when fabrics were the most expensive items people owned. It is therefore exciting to see its appearance in haute couture - antique luxury fabrics becoming modern luxury items. The collection also had more coin-embroidered outfits, as seen here. You might have also noticed

#Ootd is this 2014 Maison Margiela ensemble consisting of a bodysuit made of 18th-century silk lampas (a drawloom woven fabric usually with metallic gold or silver threads) and a chiffon silk embroidered with coins, some antique. Reusing fabric was a common and expected practice

was inspired by the "armor and the Italian Renaissance, hence" the extravagance and use of metal in the outfits. The lion is also a reference to Leo, Dior's astrological sign. #ootd #fashionhistory @museelouvre.bsky.social

#Ootd was one of the most visually stunning outfits of the exhibit- a 2006 Dior gown by John Galliano. It has a Greek classicism vibe about it, referencing the goddess Minerva, the warrior goddess of wisdom and justice. The lion's head is also unique. Apparently the collection
