The Winter Solstice has come and gone once more, so now the days will begin to get longer. We made it!


Steen's home of the certainly strange
I’m realizing that the Night Parade is basically a sort of continuation/extrapolation of the Perchtenlauf traditions in the Alps. I guess it makes sense to have such winter traditions, as the nights are getting long even here! Hopefully the sounds will keep the spirits away.
I have had Pentiment in my backlog of games to play for years now, and FINALLY got around to playing it. And it is like it was specifically hand-crafted for me, I am obsessed with it. I am obsessed with the player character Andreas Maler. I am obsessed with everything about it.
The visuals and story are so thoughtful and symbolic and moving, and it has completely rewired my brain.

I am obsessed with the modifier “You gave an annoying opinion on Pliny’s Natural History, -1”
In my mania I decided I want to try and make an Andreas Maler outfit. I decided to go with middle-aged Andreas, as I am myself middle-aged.

I briefly considered doing a young Andreas outfit, but mostly I just didn’t want to shave.
