I’m really not sure how this happened. Was the sun so big at the end of the loop that it went over the quantum moon’s orbit??

I tried to replicate this outside of the quantum moon but it seemed to refuse to orbit the hourglass twins (or I just got extremely unlucky)

Outer Wilds

I recently had the pleasure of finishing Outer Wilds for the first time and it is truly something I will never forget. What I would give to play this game for the first time again...

So you saw fell in love with Lily Gladstone in Killers of the Flower Moon and now you want her on your screen as much as possible? I’m here to help.

Certain Women directed by Kelly Reichardt

This was the first time I saw Lily Gladstone in anything and I screamed about her specifically for days. The film is segmented into three stories about women living in the northwestern plains region of the US. All three segments are good, but Lily Gladstone’s is by far my favorite. She plays a ranch hand who starts sitting in on a night school law class when she develops a crush on the teacher, played by (bonus!) Kristen Stewart.

Certain Women is streaming on The Criterion Channel, AMC+, and Kanopy (Kanopy is free!). It is also available to rent on the major platforms.

The Unknown Country directed by Morrisa Maltz

This movie is stunning. Think Nomadland but even more stripped down. Lily Gladstone plays a character on a roadtrip to reunite with her estranged family after the death of her grandmother. Along the way she tries to learn more about who her grandmother was in life and reconnect with her memory. A lot of the film is unscripted, and breathtaking shots of the western US landscape punctuate the brief encounters she has at each stop on her journey.

The Unknown Country is available to rent on the major platforms such as Apple TV, Amazon, and YouTube.

Quantum Cowboys directed by Geoff Marslett

This one’s for the multiverse fans. A really fun romp that might make your head hurt if you think about it too hard. Lily Gladstone plays a character in the 1870’s southwest who encounters a pair of travelers stuck in a time loop (sort of). She enlists their help (sort of) in a plan to recover land that was taken from her and in return helps them in their attempt to break their cycle. Most of the film is rotoscope animation, so it’s a completely different type of a performance from Lily Gladstone. I had the extraordinary luck of meeting her at a festival screening last year and they said it was such a fun deviation from their usual hyper realistic work.

Quantum Cowboys is available to rent on major platforms such as Apple TV, Amazon, and YouTube.

Fancy Dance directed by Erica Tremblay

The most recent Lily Gladstone film to blow me away, and maybe my favorite film of 2023. Lily Gladstone plays a character who has been trying to find her missing sister while simultaneously providing care for her sister’s daughter. When it appears she may lose custody, the two hit the road to search for the teen’s mother. It’s sad and sweet and beautiful. I have to warn that the subject matter is heavy and all too real but that’s why it’s an important story. It’s about something that is so pervasive, yet people outside of the community affected turn a blind eye to it.

Fancy Dance can be seen in select theaters and is now streaming on Apple TV+. Erica Tremblay previously directed Lily Gladstone in the short film Little Chief, which can be found on Vimeo.

THE MOON'S HAUNTED

Damn that sucks for the moon someone should call Jack Fenton about it

" Black Holes " //© Modern ScienceX " The Beauty and the Beast of the Universe!! A Black hole is a vortex of gravity so strong that not even light can escape. Yet, it is also a thing of great beauty. The swirling gas and dust that surrounds the black hole is like a cosmic dance. It is a reminder of the power and mystery of the universe."

I lost the post but it made me wanna draw an outer wilds version 🙏

I wanted to reblog it but my wifi cut out before I could so I only had the screenshot of the twitter post :(

The Quantum moon

[ashes-in-a-jar]

I like how when you go to the 6th location in the quantum moon in outer wilds and jump into the vortex that is the reflection of the eye on the moon, it lands you in the timber hearth location of the quantum moon.

I think it's foreshadowing the end where what you perceive when entering the eye is composed of the things most familiar and beloved to you, leading you to collapse all possibilities into a reality based on what you know and love best.

The moon basically reflects that idea and sends you back to timber hearth location, your home and your most familiar location.

The famous Eiffel Tower in Paris, France is pictured on the left lit up in gold at night. A blue laser shines out from the top. Clouds dot the background sky. The Moon is also visible through the clouds, but is circled by colorful rings: a lunar corona.

Explanation: Why does a cloudy moon sometimes appear colorful? The effect, called a lunar corona, is created by the quantum mechanical diffraction of light around individual, similarly-sized water droplets in an intervening but mostly-transparent cloud. Since light of different colors has different wavelengths, each color diffracts differently. Lunar coronae are one of the few quantum mechanical color effects that can be easily seen with the unaided eye. Solar coronae are also sometimes evident. The featured image was taken last month from Paris, France. The blue beacon emanating from the Eiffel Tower did not affect the colorful lunar corona.
