Celebrating my union with my husband by displaying our photo in a frame in front of...a vague amorphous purple ectoplasm

Not sure but I'm really here for it. A quick run-through of the WestHollywood archives quickly shows there were no shortage of *other* niches on there, but your guess for why those ones are overrepresented is as good as mine

i love trawling gay geocities via geocities.restorativland.org. it's so weird to see a little window into queer people developing a comfortable online outlet, being sweet, vulnerable, horny or completely feral over 25 years ago. i guess all these people are mostly in their 70s now

attempting to explain the hd-dvd/blu-ray format war with the same wistful register as an old man remembering the days of betamax

No need to apologise for yours!

The conspicuously enormous nips are very distracting

developer: so this is my idea for an adventure game. it's about a koala with an indian accent and he goes on adventures

broderbund executive: make the demon hot

developer: wh-

broderbund executive: make. the demon. hot

playing and writing about the game 'koala lumpur - journey to the edge' (1997) which isn't very good but features a big titty muscle demon with a bubble butt for no particular reason

❤️

nothing to post or announce just hope u are having a good day tgit

Just as nature intended

at least they removed the cold dead eyes!

the bananas in pyjamas scared the shit out of me as a child. i disliked them immensely. they have no reason to exist. the lyrics distressingly say that they aim to chase and capture the teddy bears. they are filled with potassium and hatred. they must be destroyed

agree, v diverse crowd, good vibe! love people going nuts for songs being played from specific albums in the back catalog

i went and had the most amazing night and hope you did too. the bangers and encores just didn't stop

saw the mountain goats. fucking great. double encore. people whooping and cheering and singing along to acoustic ballads about dying, collecting knives, playing dnd. five stars

This is all HTML/JS, but I am trying to finesse a tool to manage dialog entries using a tkinter interface in Python

the sheer power that the magic_cards.ttf font has over me

Me too! Just finished a main quest run a few weeks ago and felt inspired. Definitely check out Tamriel Rebuilt if you need any excuse to sink further into it

spent the weekend writing an adventure game and morrowind fangame that recreates the morrowind dialog ui from scratch in the form of a purely text-based adventure game. coming along well! i haven't written interactive fiction in ages

Tara Clerkin Trio - 'Somewhere Good' (Official Audio) YouTube video by worldofechomusic

'somewhere good' by tara clerkin trio - gorgeous simple song with pretty pianos, bass, vibraphones, cacophonic dirges, whatever, over a single repeating strum. i like songs that very slowly evolve like this. experimental doesn't mean inaccessible

Stuck - Totally Vexed YouTube video by David Dean Burkhart

'it isn't' by stuck - third album from a chicago post-punk band; doing it a little more cleanly alternative rock this time, but any conventionally anthemic rock qualities on show here are enjoyably fuzzed with dissonant hooks. whole album has a fun energy to it

stuckchi.bandcamp.com/track/it-isnt

'italics' by shaking hand - debut of a manchester band, somewhere between quiet, rhythmic post-punk and delicate post-rock. very pretty and melodic; a little timeless in the way that post-rocky sound has weaved in and out of alternative for ages now

creating a 2026 music thread to keep me accountable on all the music i am desparately catching up on. if you like alternative, post-punk, neo-psychedelia it might be your thing too. check it out:

came across a pretty incredible collection of recordings of live shows over the 80s and 90s from a guy that went to over 10,000 gigs and recorded them all. life goals tbh

I was able to finally get around to reading this and parts resonated with me. It is definitely an uphill battle and I like your suggestions. I find I disappear into the void a lot and you raise good points about seeing friendships as a fluid thing that is ideally not time sensitive

"easter tuesday" - the day where all the health conscious colleagues at the office offload all the chocolate eggs they recieved as gifts by dumping them on desks, breakroom counters, kitchens

Happy to help you get this working! I've had no issues with my setup so can give some guidance.

Playing it two ways: via emulation on 86box running a virtual windows machine, and also as a ripped CD on my actual Windows 98 machine!
