American McGee’s Alice and the much later sequel which is my favourite game of all time - Alice: Madness Returns.

The aesthetic, the puzzles, the sound design, the voice acting, the political statements underlying the narrative, Alice’s outfits, the collectibles hidden in obscure places, the different art styles for each world level. I just love it! I mean sure, the combat mechanics are not as complex as some games but they fit nicely into Alice in Wonderland lore and if you up the difficulty settings it can be more challenging.

I’m also really enjoying Inscryption at the moment. A puzzle/card game interweaved with an escape the room horror story.

I challenged myself one night to record myself improvising on my piano, after a few glasses of wine. I ended up lost in some kind of trance pouring my heart out into the keys. I’ve never been quite able to recreate it again.

I still enjoy listening to it from time to time, it’s a shame I had let a friend borrow my studio mic and just had my phone to record with at the time. Although perhaps the grainy phone recording quality is what adds to the timbre of it.

Worried for you if your autocorrect is ready to go with sharts. 😂

All the time! I studied Latin and Classical History for years so it’s a deep interest of mine. I often reminisce about the trip I took to Italy with my Latin class to visit Pompeii and Herculaneum.

This is amazing, thank you!

It’s my understanding that the attack compromised an already active, authenticated session, which would get around 2FA.

I’m listening now and enjoying it! I feel like these would be a great soundtrack for an indie game :)

Please go play it and experience the epicness! :D

I keep trying to upload an image but I think lemmy.world is having a bit of a brain fart atm.

I’ll try linking it instead 😂

On the contrary I think pics will help to normalise breastfeeding and show that it’s simply a baby feeding, it’s natural and not anything else to be ogled at. I previously used r/breastfeeding and they had plenty of pics, though I suspect good moderation was needed to keep that successful :)

Sooooo dark. Especially the reveal for the final boss. Agh, gonna have to do a replay now 😂

I’ve been using Voyager (or wefwef as it used to be known) since day one here at Lemmy. Moved over from Reddit when the API changes were announced, and then any potential negotiations with Reddit and third party app developers broke down.

This is so wholesome. I love finding hand made knitted/crocheted items for my toddler when I’m shopping second hand. I always like to think that their creator would be happy to know that they’ve kept another little one looking cool and keeping warm ‘n cosy with their labour of love. :)

That makes so much sense. I’m gonna start doing that myself. Thanks for the tip!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment, it’s certainly given me a lot to consider. I suppose it’s deciding now whether to be in the safer space or have the outreach to be visible to more people who need the support. I might be wrong but I’m assuming that Lemmy users currently don’t have a huge percentage of women who are child rearing at the moment. But then again, I’m here, so who knows. :)

Thank you again, yes hopefully this might be something that is a future problem as lemmy grows, at the moment everyone seems pretty alright on here. My worry is that if/when lemmy becomes easier to access to non-techies and more people (looking at you Threads ugh), then we will start having problems. I hope we defederate and do it soon.

That’s interesting, what are the benefits of having a different app for different servers?

Same could be said for many other hobbies/activities that people use to unwind

“Well, just to the left of the cleftal horizon.” 😂
