Fucking beautiful.

nothing to prove

Matched with a girl with the same name… I think she’s the one.

Speaking of impossibly spherical animals, we love this awesome Balloon Horse sculpture by Japanese pop surrealist Naoto Hattori (previously featured here).

The Balloon Horse measures 12-inches-tall and is made of polyresin that’s been hand-painted to look like bronze. The horse floats atop a 6-inch-tall base painted to look like beautiful green marble.

Each piece is signed and numbered by Hattori and is currently available for pre-order via VTSS.

Corellian Zoos, Parents and Covid

So just over a year ago, i posted a dialogue capture from SWTOR of a bit of ambient dialogue on Corellia where, in the middle of a war zone, a father complains to a soldier that the animals have escaped from the zoo. This man’s neighbors are apparently dying all around him, and all he can complain about is his own inconvenience.  Unexpectedly, it became my most popular post ever based on Tumblr’s “Notes”. I’ve done a hundred ambient dialogue captures since then, and i still haven’t quite replicated it. I’ve re-posted the screen-caps here, along with the actual video & audio. 

I saw this again the other day, and I couldn’t help but think of Covid.  There are people in the real world who are just like this father.  Covid is actually contagious. Comparing it to things like heart disease - or getting hit by a car walking across the  street -  is a ridiculous comparison. When i first saw this over a year ago, i thought it was chiefly a reference to parents complaining about violence in video games, because it gave them something to complain about. Now i think it was trying to warn us. People are crazy.
