Me watching Andor: :host-nervous:

I cannot stress enough how little about Star Wars or anything in its universe you need to know in order to watch and enjoy this show. No movies, no TV to catch up on, there's no special characters you need to know about. Everything you need is right there in the show.

If you gave up on Star Wars because it was exhausting, I feel you. If it was because Kenobi and Book of Boba didn't go like you wanted them to, I feel you! Give this series a shot.



I'm excited to share this OC that I commissioned Conor Nolan to make for me. I just got the digital preview for this morning, and as always with Conor's ink work, I absolutely love it.

Kersee (they/any) is a halfling druid NPC who lives in the log cabin atop their giant bagworm familiar. Because these cabins are tall and twisty, they use their druid wildshape to form their shoulders up into a giraffe head to allow them to poke their head up through the hatch atop the cabin.

The Library of Babel, by Jorge Luis Borges is a short story that investigates the implications of a library whose inhabitants believed it contained every single combination of characters in every kind of order to form all possible content.

I got to bring this line of thinking up today at a work event and I was pleased with how it landed.

AI Art is trying to approximate an efficient enough Librarian of Babel that it can find the exact book you're looking for, if only you put in the correct query.

I'm of the opinion that finding a Library of Babel book that has "so little gibberish that you can hardly tell the difference between it and an authored book" does not mean that a real book has been found in the Library of Babel.



We wanted to be faithful to the process and to someone who was such a master of the craft, so we've digitally recreated Andy Serkis's face and then used that as a basis for CGI capturing the character in the movie.
