Recent good things (7/8/25)
I haven't done one of these in awhile!
Taskmaster series 13
My husband and I have been going through all of Taskmaster, but instead of watching the series (serieses??) in order, we've been choosing a random series and watching it. And I think I have a new favorite?? Before I would have said series 4, but our most recent one is series 13, and oh my god. Everyone is so funny. I keep laughing hard enough to get an ab workout. There's a task with a cement mixer that made my husband cry laugh.
We also watched series 19 as it aired and loved it (Stevie Martin my beloved!), but man. Series 13. What a delight. If you've been interested in watching the show, maybe start with that one.
Morningstar buffalo "chicken" wings
These aren't a new discovery or anything, I just wanted to list them because I love them so deeply. They're even better when air fried. Mmmmmm.
I hit a big Divinuet milestone today
Yeah! I now have found, edited, and implemented all the video clips I needed for the game! It was so many! 45 stock footage videos and 46 clips from old public domain silent films! The oldest one is from 1896! That's wild!
But yeah, it's something I've been working on for forever, and it feels great to be done with it. Maybe I'll have this be the subject of my next Divinuet devlog, it was a really interesting aspect of making the game.
The Dream
This is a podcast about MLMs. Well, the first season is. That's all I've listened to so far. I think the other seasons are about other things (I imagine with similar themes, though). I absolutely love podcasts about scammers and cults, and this definitely fits into that general vibe.
Anyway, it's real good! And infuriating! That's how you know it's good reporting. I knew there was probably some reason the US government has consistently been so soft on MLMs, but I had no idea how deep it went. Ugh. Highly recommend!
