• I watched I am Frankelda on Saturday!! I love Frankelda!!!! And I especially love Cinema Fantasma and want to give them one billion dollars.
• I saw Obsession on Sunday and… I really did not like it.
• I installed a PS2 emulator on a whim and started playing Shadow of the Colossus. I love the game and have watched a couple of playthroughs, but this is my first time actually playing it.
• Sounds like my upstairs neighbors are enjoying the World Cup (they can be a little annoying with the noise at times but hearing them yell GOOOOAAAALL is pretty funny)
• My girlfriend made these black bean borgers. They were good. I recommend having them with pimiento cheese

Manifestos I like from Manifesto Jam 2026 (so far)

There’ve been a lot more posted since I first checked out the submissions, so there are a lot I haven’t read. You can read them all here.

• I Hate Your Cozy Game. What it sounds like.
• Against Gratitude: Dialectics of Refusal. Fuck being thankful for the status quo.
• Real Pride. A good one if you need some motivation to create.
• Annafesto: a manifesto for one-page role-playing games by Anna Anthropy. I stopped playing TTRPGs in part because they always felt too complicated, so I think I need to give one-page games a try.
