Vol. 28 - Astrobot GOTY Every Year
What's up!
My pecs are sore as hell after benchpressing this week. But here I am, typing away at this week's newsletter. Please clap.
Jokes aside, let's get to the stuff.
Interesting Stuff
Earth.fm
A site that lets you listen to sounds from across the Earth! Very cute and nice for relaxing.
Tapedeck
This place houses a collection of hundreds of tapes. That's it! It's cool to click through. I won't be a boomer about them, though, promise. But give them a look if you're not familiar with cassette tapes!
The Mobile Phone Museum
A website that lets you peruse through 2800(!) phones! Very fun to look at all the neat designs before everything became boring rectangles that do nothing but let you peer directly into hell. I'll never forgive you for this, Steve. Shout out to Witty for sharing this one!
100 Things to do with your Personal Website
Pretty self-explanatory tbh! I'm a big fan of maintaining your own space online (obviously, given the nature of this newsletter and taniyn.quest), so if you want to make one and don't know where to start, here's a good resource to kick things off!
Departure Mono
Cool font! That's it. I'm using it for Obsidian now and it reads pretty well imo!
Planted this Week
Game Round-up - 09082024
I played a bunch of games this week, so rather than write four posts about them, I combined them all into this round-up! Hop in to learn how I'm feeling about:
Visions of Mana
Gundam Breaker 4
Astrobot
Magicus
Media Corner
Games
Scroll back up a little!
TV/Film
I've been rewatching the last American season of Love is Blind with my fiancé and I'm very excited because we're riiiight on the cusp of when everything gets messy and falls apart.
Besides that I have a lot of horror movies to catch up on. Eventually! In particular I'm trying to see if Longlegs is as scary as the marketing suggets (I doubt it).
Music
On repeat lately:
Riverside - De De Mouse
ACHARAKA - PASSEPIED
Arco Original Soundtrack - José Ramón "Bibiki" García
Status Update
Wow this week was kinda ass, ngl! Will never get over how something that should be simple in America - like selling a car - ends up being a huge headache for no reason! Hopefully that'll be all resolved this coming week, but we'll see!
Besides that just chugging along and hoping for cooler weather soon (I have been hoping for weeks now). I didn't feel very productive this past week but I'm gonna do my best to improve on that this week.
