Got a absolute killer long read on @thisweekinvideogames.com for the weekend:

@sambarsanti.bsky.social dives deep into the communities convinced there's "one last mystery" left to solve in Red Dead Redemption 2, speaks to one of the main sleuths, and ties it all back to Ed Harris in Westworld.
Red Dead Redemption 2, Westworld, And The Hunt For The Final Easter Egg
Like Westworld's Man in Black, this community is working to uncover what they believe is the last unsolved mystery hidden in Red Dead Redemption 2.

Hey gang! Are there any Melbourne/Victoria-based 3D modellers looking for short contract work right now? Summerfall is currently on the lookout for contractors to do hard-surface environment work for a new prototype, like furniture and all that. 🔨🪑

Send through portfolios! 🙂 Cheers!

love this on how The Very Hungry Caterpillar works, and where it comes from lookingatpicturebooks.substack.com/p/the-very-h...
The Very Hungry Caterpillar
Jon and Mac consider: worms, the generative tension between tidiness and chaos, why we feel affection for this caterpillar, brightness, science vs. poetry, a toy you can read, a book you can touch

The only other flowers in the area look like Capeweed and Cape Marguerite, both invasive weeds native to South Africa

“Native to South Africa, gazanias were first imported to Australia in the 1950s and 1970s as low-maintenance garden plants”
Full article: www.abc.net.au/news/rural/2...
Flower likened to 'cancer' for environment still sold at nurseries
The colourful flowers of gazanias might attract you to buy them at a nursery but it is worth considering whether you are getting an invasive weed causing havoc to our landscapes.

News from me: after years of not being able to have my soundtrack for Untitled Goose Game on Bandcamp - it's now on @bandcamp.com.

I'm also in a slow process of having my music (including Goose Game) removed from Spotify, for their treatment of artists, their politics, and their embrace of AI.

One million years ago I had the pleasure of working on Dead Static Drive for a bit, and today it’s out!
