tabf5, this is LOVELY! I love it, how peaceful it is— were you the one doing the narration? Its so nice! I feel like this is THE way websites should be used. I love interactive stories (obviously as one who has one) and this is such a delight. Was worth waiting for this whole time 🩷

Really cool to finally get to see what this was! I really like the story book vibe this has, and the DVD cases turned our great, too!

randall you're supposed to put wired headphones under your shirt so they don't get caught on things while you walk

@strawberry-transneu Yes that narration is me! ------------ @shittymeat999 All in vanilla JS that I wrote! It was kinda torture lmao but worth it. I probably could've just used Twine though ------------ @kockatriceking I HAD NO IDEA. FUCK

isn't it crazy how there exists this internal pressure to update so consistently? like, this is the slow web. there's no algorithm (save for the neocities "front page" but that barely counts), no rush, and it's not unusual for people go months between updates. and yet i get that urge to update as frequently as i can, too. it's very strange

@skigothy Thought about this for a while, I think it's good to want to update somewhat frequently- the thing that the slow web should NOT be pressuring people to do is to consistently feel the need to out-do your previous site additions
