July 2026

Hello. New section, where I reflect upon a month. July was busy and passed so quickly, and summer is in full swing.

Different from the now page in that this is all retrospective. ‘What I remember’, not ‘what am I doing’.

Announcements

Created Damnatio Memoriam for Toxic Yuri Jam (and postmortem)
Created and published Beholden Book, a hand-drawn serif font
Participated in GMTK Jam with Block & Awe, a block-exploding puzzler
Open-sourced repositories for Recital and Frontispiece, my interactive fiction libraries, as well as a Zed syntax highlighting plugin

Maybe you should talk to someone by Lori Gottlieb.
The Morrigan - Gundam: Witch from Mercury fanfiction. It’s quite good, and very long. I know I’m going to keep thinking about this one for a while.
Coriolanus and The Tempest - Shakespeare in the Park performances. Coriolanus was much more an enjoyable watch than it was to try to read the script.
Princess Tutu, at least the first ~10 episodes. I remember watching a particularly inspired AMV a while ago that I still think about when I watch.
A lot of Slay the Spire 2. I haven’t played many new games.

Attended Otakon 2026. Anime conventions are frequently about buying things, but I bought nothing.
