Vol. 71 - One is the Loneliest Number
You won't enjoy things on my watch.
A Mint, alone in the apartment…what will he do? I don’t like being alone in here for longer than a few days, because I get bored and antsy. I need someone in my living space or else I stop operating like a normal human being and end up watching bunny cam livestreams at 3AM because I have no one around to judge me for my bad decisions.
That said, I’m still normal enough to get a new(s)letter out after a post-Eid break, so let’s get into it!
Interesting Stuff
Obsolete Sounds
A collection of sounds that have become extinct. It’s very cool!
Soup of Life
Someone smarter than me will definitely enjoy this.
Walkman.land
A database of portable pocket audio cassette players.
Afro Index
I no longer take excuses from artists that say they don’t know how to draw Black people. Figure it the fuck out.

I wanna write about PICO-8 in more depth, but in the meantime peep the games that people like on the system.

Status Update
Kinda already gave the update so I guess I’ll just ramble for a bit. Uhh I’ve been in a dungeon grindy sort of mood, hence the PSP2I playthrough mentioned above. I’m also thinking about trying Star Ocean 3 again, but try as I might, I simply don’t understand the game’s combat at all. At this point I just don’t want the game to beat me, so I’ll probably try again out of stubbornness. Hit me up if you have tips.
