If you have any interest in chatting with folks into old Web/computing/gaming nostalgia, you are strongly encouraged to drop by! If you don't have an IRC client and don't want to get one (you really should!) there is a Webchat interface available here. The current MOTD is available to read at https://koshka.love/motd.txt if you want to get an idea of the current vision.
It remains to be seen when the active times will be for this network, but for whatever it's worth, I will do my best to be around 1730-2230 EST on weekdays and most of the day on weekends. Stop by and say hi! We don't bite! (:
https://chat.mibbit.com/?url=irc%3A%2F%2Firc.koshka.love%2Fspeakez Forgot the link to the WebChat. It sends you to #speakez because it won't recognise # as a valid channel name, but you can type "/join #" to get there.
After a long spell of not having the motivation, energy, or time to accomplish anything beyond shitposting on IRC, I am back with a brand new sub-section for the Mystery Mansion dedicated to lolwut-esque written reminiscences of various games from my childhood. There is currently a lengthy write-up about Wacky Wheels. I also added an interesting new dream I had to the Somnium.
hahaha the lake glitch thats friggin cute. i like the graphics in general. these reminiscenes are v cool (i like @lolwut's too)
Once again, Koshka, I am deeply flattered that you would label anything as "lolwut-esque", as if I have my own signature style or approach which is worth imitating. (Also, thank you, too, holeinmyheart.)
@lolwut I really think that you are once again underestimating your influence (which absolutely contributed to my creation of this new subsection) and the eloquence of your writing.
Can you please change the link to https://koshka.love ? The Neocities version is outdated and is going to only become more outdated as time goes by, as mentioned on the front page.
Sounds like the same breed of people that got their feathers ruffled about my Covid stuff.
*Bombs the shit out of a place killing civilians* No, my motherland is on the right side :)
@owlyfans Russia is responding to decades of incessant aggression. You are a dirty peasant who is brainwashed by western propaganda.
Russia's reply to this "aggression" is to commit war crimes and putting the well-being of civilians who had nothing at all to do with the "aggression" and simply wanted to live their lives at risk. I feel like there is a difference between being "brainwashed by western propaganda" and watching footage showing the Russian army literally committing horrible acts.
I am sorry that you are seeing hatred towards normal Russian people, I understand that this is not Russia's war, but Vladamir Putin's, but defending the actions of the government is not okay. I am proud to be British, but I would never want to defend the horrible acts done by my government
I'm glad that you called me "brainwashed" and a "dirty peasant" quickly, as I now know that clearly, you are sadly too deep in your government's lies that it might be hard to get out. I wish you the best. Peace and love.
I wouldn't expect someone named after a simp site to understand this, but not everything you see on TV is real. In fact, most, if not all, of the "war crime" propaganda has been proven to be fake, and Ukranians have been proven, via eye-witness testimony, to be attacking their own people to create more propaganda. They are also literal, unironic Nazis. You have no clue what's going on over there, and it shows.
I laughed at "dirty peasant"! But I think we're all largely peasants; we're all civilians and really these aren't our fights, yet we're encouraged to take sides and used in various ways to support such things.
I call you a dirty peasant because you've clearly demonstrated your utter lack of critical thinking ability and your proclivity towards blindly believing anything you read - both classical traits of low-bred people.
Updated the ZZT Game Reviews page with reviews of the stellar Frost 1 by Zenith Nadir and the beautifully bizarre PPDV2 by Viovis.
i can second the PPDV2 rec!!!! esp the last stretch of it is breathtaking!!!!
Heck yes! I first played it nearly two decades ago, and have played it many times since, and it still gets to me.

"Early" April Fool's joke that I cobbled together at the last second. I put it up today to avoid friends over on the other side of the pond for whom it is already April Fools being completely left it up. The background and incantation are from the extradimensional entity known as The Hiss, from the sublime computer game Control. That is all.
