Story idea:
The natural process by which man-made objects become yokai (via long-term ownership imbuing these objects with souls) has its balance interrupted by planned obsolescence & disposability culture; as a result, the flow of souls is re-routed, and all antiques become exceptionally powerfully haunted.
Hot take on art discourse
Fearless Girl is an advertisement masquerading as guerrilla art but was in reality commissioned by a hedge fund.
Charging Bull is guerrilla art that lionizes the status quo "good immigrant" narrative. It's guerrilla art that is so vapid that most people ASSUME it was commissioned by a hedge fund.
Each is cringe inducing in its own uniquely horrible way.
The local timeline on dolphin.town is extremely good https://mastodon.social/media/hNMhoGr2BfwuB7nGPZs
Warning Forever (2003)
A vertical-scrolling shoot-em-up by Hikoza T Ohkubo that consists entirely of boss battles against opponents that are procedurally generated to counter the weaknesses of your fighting style. As you beat each stage, the next boss gets generated with new abilities based on how you destroyed the last one.

@lindseyb using rubocop, we've established a god_tributes-like "COPS FOR THE COP COP" kind of convention... guess the kind of tools you use shapes your reaction to them (:
