before covid, there was a pandemic spread through the highly popular MMORPG world of warcraft in 2005. this resulted in one of the most fascinating wikipedia articles iāve ever read.

I love a good rabbithole but the Wikipedia articles for very basic concepts are so so interesting too. the page for āWarā is of course incredibly developed and thought out, deeply exploring its history, types, effects, motivations, ethics, and mitigation with lotsss of interesting jumping off points for other philosophical, historical, material, and sociological topics. not reccing this in an edgelord way but in a sober and curious way

gao hangās work isnāt otherworldly - itās from a world i love.
for months before i found his name, his artwork invaded my pinterest feed. it was arresting, humorous, nostalgic. ps1 graphics you can reach out and touch - if you were ever able to escape from the screen, that is.

in the wake of the untimely death of buddy duress, i am reminded of the magnetic energy i felt discovering the safdie brothers.
i first watched good time in film school, thanks to one of my only cool teachers (european). while i loved the film, i loved the safdie brothersā ethos even more.
they scouted their stars from around the city - interesting people with tough lives. from reading and listening to podcasts, it seemed hectic. buddy durress wasnāt a trained actor, he was sometimes homeless and other times locked up at rikers. how do you manage that kind of talent?
the article iām including in this post could explain what the safdie brothers accomplish better than i can. their film heaven knows what is one of my all time favorites - but the story behind it solidifies why itās so important.
iām not sure what arielle holmes is up to now, but iām grateful she indulged everyone long enough to be able to make that film.

found around the hot + ready to eat food section, this edamame reminds me of sugarfish edamame. i do not recommend this appās lack of edamame emoji.
