I've been trying to distract myself from the horrors of modern life by knitting unnecessarily complex cable swatches. They are partly inspired by printer's ornaments and other typographic elements.

I don’t like those mods that “fix” Stardew characters. Their flaws are what make them interesting!
Instead I would like to see mods that make characters worse. Marnie commits insurance fraud! Maru trolls people on Usenet! Linus killed a guy thirty years ago and became a woods hermit out of guilt!
loving your vision anon
#i know a team of academics who are making a Big Ag stardew mod. btw.#for the 'lulz' as they once said in days of yore#and also for the fun artistic critique and for the exploration of modding communities and practices
