This is what anxiety sounds like.
You know usual people say something like the comment above and I’m like “Ehhhh, I guess?” but this time its. super dead on.
Eleven years after the first public previews hit the ‘net, Joakim Sandberg’s Iconoclasts has a release date.
I am literally quivering with anticipation.
nothing i like more then finding out about a cool thing right before it comes out, when the fans have waited years :D
i did it with exalted, and now i do it with this, this looks cool as HELL
It’s very cool, and it’s also entirely unreasonable that it even exists.
Iconoclasts is basically an answer to the question “how long does it take one guy working in his free time to bang out a AAA-class Metroidvania?”.
All the art. All the music. All the map designs and cutscene animations and UI development. One guy.
Turns out the answer is “just a shade over a decade”.
Lionhearted- Porter Robinson ft. Urban Cone
Gravel to Tempo- Hayley Kiyoko
Sweet Dreams (Sucker Punch)- Emily Browning & Marilyn Manson
Bad Blood- Taylor Swift ft. Kendrick Lamar

Reblogging to add some more:

I need an inspiration boost. Send me an ask with a fic title (and specific scene, if you have one in mind) and I’ll see what I can do. No promises but I’ll cover as many as I can! (Probably kind of slowly!)
Tagging a few people, but no pressure/all are welcome! @alphacygni-8 @allprevailing @ladyvean @tinsnip @savory-breakfasts @jazzypizzaz @autisticandroids
Ooohhhhhhhhhh~~~
Carmen Goodyear, one of the founders of Country Women magazine, and her wife Laurie York.
“Carmen Goodyear and Laurie York, partners in farm and marriage, have for decades forged an existence removed from consumerism, rooted in communal living, and above all, situated close to nature. This farm and preserve is where they have raised goats, sheep, chickens, and bees; where they have grown a mammoth garden that supplies most of their food; where they have helped wage successful battles against offshore oil drilling, a nuclear power plant, and GMOs; where they have, after many years together, gotten legally married …”

pilferingapples replied to your post “i like dead poets society just fine but the facts are that, should you…”
‘oh yeah ya got trouble! The aesthetic’s a terrible, terrible trouble! Ya know they exploited half the world, and that ain’t cool!“
with a capital t and that rhymes with p and that stands for ‘philosophical, artsy, homoerotic stories about white boys at private boarding schools”
I spent most of my weekend attempting to go through and transcribe more of Rachel‘s letters.
For those who haven’t been following along, Rachel was a teenage girl who was attending a prestigious boarding school in Boston (and later in Philadelphia) in the 1890s. I bought a bunch of letters written by her (and other family members/friends) at a flea market two summers ago. Most of the letters were written to her cousins Will and Jack, who were right around her age and were at Phillips Academy and later Harvard and Yale.
I’m going to try to get around to photographing the letters soon, but for now here are a just a few of the many, many highlights and interesting tidbits…
Slayers novel gets a sequel after 18 Years. Dragon Age March 2018 issue will publish a pre-publication of a new Slayers work on January 20, 2018.
