Remember


Hello wobblers! I'm still alive, if anyone's still out there reading this. I'll get back to more regular writing updates once I'm finished with the Kaiju Big Battel game. See you in 25 years?

The experimental, 1970s cult horror film by David Lynch has been analyzed for 40 years, and Lynch notoriously won’t explain its meaning, preferring to let viewers reach their own conclusions. For me, it captured the darker side of new parenthood – the middle-of-the-night misery that visitors don’t get to see.
