I never knew being a girl with a blog during the year of the horse could feel so electric

the setting is also a character. many do not know this but its true. it has a history and a future and often an arc of its own, and the other characters all have personal relationships with it

[weeniedog200]

beautiful thought i just had: if you forget to say amen after a prayer, is it like leaving out a closing quotation mark? would all of your words become whispers in an unintentionally long letter to god? all the gossip that you tell your best friend, when you tell your mom that you love her, when you talk in your sleep, when you call your cat in for dinner, when you curse the traffic on your commute.. up until your next prayer which ends in amen. like a phone call you thought you’d hung up on

Hi i drew these on aggie with my friend werm hi no im not a human fandom

[technofeudalism]

i think the near-extinction of people making fun, deep and/or unique interactive text-based browser games, projects and stories is catastrophic to the internet. i'm talking pre-itch.io era, nothing against it.

there are a lot of fun ones listed here and here but for the most part, they were made years ago and are now a dying breed. i get why. there's no money in it. factoring in the cost of web hosting and servers, it probably costs money. it's just sad that it's a dying art form.

anyway, here's some of my favorite browser-based interactive projects and games, if you're into that kind of thing. 90% of them are on the lists that i linked above.

A Better World - create an alternate history timeline

Alter Ego - abandonware birth-to-death life simulator game

Seedship - text-based game about colonizing a new planet

Sandboxels or ThisIsSand - free-falling sand physics games

Little Alchemy 2 - combine various elements to make new ones

Miniconomy - player driven economy game

Checkbox Olympics - games involving clicking checkboxes

BrantSteele.net - game show and Hunger Games simulators

Murder Games - fight to the death simulator by Orteil

Cookie Clicker - different but felt weird not including it. by Orteil.

if you're ever thinking about making a niche project that only a select number of individuals will be nerdy enough to enjoy, keep in mind i've been playing some of these games off and on for 20~ years (Alter Ego, for example). quite literally a lifetime of replayability.

[technofeudalism]

since this post blew up, i've been wanting to do an addition with all of the recommendations from the comments and tags. but there's a lot of them. some people might be crazy enough to sit down and seriously put them all in one post with descriptions. those people are honestly sick in the head.

anyway, here's all of the recommendations from the reblogs. not all of them are text-based, but it's a great mixture of styles. also don't forget the links in the second paragraph of the OP which will take you to FMHY where there are a bunch more games listed.

WILL ABSOLUTELY be drawing more of this but I really need to show proof of concept RIGHT NOW. Guardian dog/sheep/wolf.........?

[waywardsist3rs]

The entitlement that made Howard view Kim as an extension of himself was so strong that he couldn’t fathom Kim being a whole, fully grown woman who considered HHM merely as a workplace, but believed that it was under his authority did she really grow, making him feel the need to declare to others and remind her of “where she came from”

Which in turn makes this scene even more pivotal and profound imo cause here you can tell it’s just hit him how far Kim has come, how much time has passed, how much they’ve accomplished, but in the “I made that” way, not “she did that” way.

What’s really interesting is he would not have smiled and huffed a sigh of relief and uttered that “wow” and most DEFINITELY forgiven Kim’s student loan debt had she announced that she was in fact transferring to S&C, something that was translated into “handing his magnum opus over to another in power” through his twisted perception of her and of himself at the beginning of this conversation.

He was being spiteful during that luncheon obviously, but the entitlement mentality and illusory superiority were undeniably potent, and such disregard of Kim’s autonomy might as well be the most consistent thing about his character throughout all 6 seasons.

Howard might have been right for warning Kim about Jimmy dragging her down with him, but he did it for the wrong reason. Not out of genuine concern for her wellbeing, but because he thought he could STILL tell Kim to minimize her interaction with lowlife unstable Jimmy McGill like he used, because he thought he could still influence or even occupy a part in her decision making, hence her feeling deeply offended over it.

In the end, what masterpiece he thought he created came back to bite him in the most unimaginably vicious of ways to him, and it’s sick, and it’s awful, and it’s a thing of beauty.

(Lived experience as a woman still gives me the ick from men like this eughgjfhf)

Званый ужин.

[waywardsist3rs]

Idk if anyone has talked about this but Kim’s cello and her having to carry that massive thing on her back all the way from school to home feel so much like an allegory for her bearing the weight of being the well-rounded, perfect daughter while also having to put up with her irresponsible mother’s antics.

i love when a character is grieving someone they used to know who isn't dead but has changed so much that it feels like they might as well be. they're gone but they're not, someone else inhabiting their body even though it's still them. no funeral, no grave to cry at, you could talk to them any time if you really wanted to, but it won't be the person you knew, not really, you can never have that version of them back
