no real news. i should probably start putting various recommendations here though just to keep it fresh. im going to try to send out a newsletter next week with comic recs. i've been slow moving, creatively, but i was also swallowed up playing "pentiment" which was beyond excellent. however, it's very difficult to discuss at length because it's a murder mystery that greatly benefits from a blind playthrough. gave me lots to chew on about the role of art in the world. very well crafted experience.
the other recommendation is the manga "thermae romae", about an ancient roman bathhouse architect who slips through time into modern japanese bathhouses, develops new ideas from the experiences, and then returns to rome to improve on his craft. as of this year it apparently started a sequel that is equally excellent that takes place 20 years after the events of the first story.
