Not much of an intro this week because I’m tired. I go on vacation tomorrow for a bit and have posts scheduled for then so I can keep up with Blaugust.

Video Games

Em wrote about some highlights at the Glasgow Indie Game Fest

Cybercultural has an article about Multimedia Gulch and the cd-roms they created in 1994.

Lunar Looney writes about how demo discs were pretty rad

Technology

This post lists alternatives for hosting erotic and queer work

erysdren wrote a guide to preserving basically everything on the internet and encouraging you to download things you like if you’ve got the room for it.

Someone put together a list of blog rolls they’re a part of, but it then turns into a really nice list of other curated blogrolls, webrings, and small website directories. Found this one on theTangentSpace

Mike Piontek wrote criticisms of safari 26 and the new liquid glass

I like roundups of blog posts so I’m including this one on dhippo.net. It includes a mention of my post on RetroAchievements, which linked to his post mentioning RetroAchivements. So now there is a chain of posts linking to the same two blogs repeatedly.

Thanks to this post, I am now familiar with iNaturalist and all the local things people are finding in nature.

Dev Logs

Development has resumed on Eldritch 2!

Writing

A new issue of Alocasia! It’s a journal of queer plant-based writing and free, but donations are appreciated.

Photography

Have some nice photos from various blogs of Juanita Bay, a garden, and someone’s vacation in Llandudno in North Wales. You can just post photos on your blog! Maybe I’ll do that after I go on my vacation this week.

Food

Megan put together a very nice list of vegetarian recipe recommendations and a recipe for a cocktail.

Other BIts

The Works of Egan writes about their favorite public media (which includes some of mine too). Consider supporting the ones local to you!
