always so weird when i see people talking about "miles edgeworth" fleeing to europe and prosecuting there or w/e. that's kilometers edgeworth to you

Ok but like. What the fuck is there to do on the internet anymore?

Idk when I was younger, you could just go and go and find exciting new websites full of whatever cool things you wanted to explore. An overabundance of ways to occupy your time online.

Now, it's just... Social media. That's it. Social media and news sites. And I'm tired of social media and I'm tired of the news.

Am I just like completely inept at finding new things or has the internet just fallen apart that much with the problems of SEO and web 3.0 turning everything into a same-site prison?

Stay?

First off, I am mildly frustrated by Tumblr’s tagging/search system because there is absolutely no hope for finding content related to a work with a name like “Stay?”

I played through E Jade Lomax’s Choose-Your-Own-Adventure fiction “Stay?” and it is absolutely wonderful. I think the author’s description sums it up best:

WHAT IS “STAY? ” ?

An interactive fiction story.

A dating sim wrapped up in a fantasy adventure puzzle.

A quest to find your own happy ending in a world where you always get a second chance.

The absolute depth here to discover, the little glimpses you get into all of these character’s hearts through loop after loop. I think the most transformative moment for me was realizing that the ultimate goal isn’t to find a way to stop the loops; it’s to build a life that you’re happy to leave the loop with.
