31. scruff me and pin me (let’s make a man of me) by plalligator (me) (the quarry, travis/laura)

i'm going to cheat again and give the last spot to my own fic, which i only feel justified in doing this because this is just for kicks and i also its the first fic i've finished since yuletide 2019 (oof). hoping this will manifest the energy of me continuing to be able to write in 2023. happy new year!

and now for something completely different

30. vfx artists react to tollywood bad and great cgi

okay so i have not seen rrr, the movie referenced in this video but i have watch this video at least 3 times just because their enthusiasm is so infectious and its fascinating to learn how all the stunts were done. the whole vfx artists react series all nice bite-sized entertainment where you also feel like you learned something

29. in other waters by jump over the age

deceptively simple text-based point and click game where you play as an ai guiding a biologist through an alien ocean. the whole story is told through your navigation interface, with no imagery and with only color choices and music to differentiate environments

27. teardown by tuxedo labs

are you tired of being nice? do you want to go apeshit? did 2022 leave you wanting to burn a billionaire's house down? if so i recommend TEARDOWN by tuxedo labs. for a mere $16 on steam (until jan 5) you too can experience the thrill of being gay and doing crimes

caveat: since the game is all physics, it takes a fair amount of oomph to run, so check the system requirements

26. moonshine (kdrama)

halfway between a heist drama and a court politics drama, featuring the bootleg liquor industry in joseon korea. hyeri does a great job being very cute and small but also Ready To Fuck You Up. kickass ensemble cast, of which kang mina playing a kleptomaniac noblewoman is a standout

24. epik high is here, part 2 by epik high (& epik high north american tour 2022)

this rec feels like it comes from 1 million years ago because the album came out in february and their tour was in march but nevertheless this album does slap.

video from the minneapolis show (our show) feat the best choreo in kpop

haven't had a lot of time to get to the rest of the yuletide offerings (plus i didn't write this year) so i guess we're on to the random grab bag portion of stuff i liked this year

19. girls' high school mystery class & ghsmc 2

k-variety show that's a mix between an escape room and an rpg. cast composed of a professional announcer (park jiyoon), a comedian (jang doyeon), a producer/mc (jaejae), a singer (bibi), and an idol (yena).

18. and remains quiet by anonymous, nirvana in fire, consort jing & mei changsu

mei changsu gets dragged to hell and back by consort jing for his self-destructive behavior--as he deserves--and learns that actions do indeed have consequences. incredible stuff x 2
