Your story about growing up poor and how it contributed to who you are really resonated with me! I feel like all of my "tech skills" and ability to problem-solve directly come from the many years I spent torrenting The Sims 4 and other games. Now I'm trying to become a game developer myself! (Also your website is soooo beautiful!)

I read your story about scarcity and savouring videogames, and it was really nice. Your website is also delightfully retro and fun to explore. I hope you have a great day!

I love love LOVE your blog! Reading through it is giving me flashbacks to my childhood. Your love letter to Pokemon gave me the biggest blast of nostalgia for PokemonElite2000! I used to get sprites to recolor from there lol! You have an awesome writing style! Thank you and congratulations on your super cool website!

Hi bsky friend I like your website. So cute.

i like how each of your blog posts has a different look to it, but they all feel very 90s

I love your blog! Your perspective is always really interesting and insightful, and I always enjoy reading your latest posts. This place just feels so cozy, while also being nuanced and thought-provoking. I really like how much you value authentic experiences and connection, those are the stuff that make life great (at least for me). Thank you for your writing! One question—have you ever considered adding an RSS feed to your site? That way, we'd be able to receive notifications using an RSS reader. Or, maybe there already is one for this site, and I just didn't notice...

Hi ! This website has been a fantastic place to go and read to wind down for the night. I think some things that have been bothering me about gaming's recent obsession with the 'backlog' kind've clicked in my head as I was reading your "The Shape of a Quiet Life." Your reflective, insightful writing and creative style is helping me think through things I've wanted the right place to think through - not just about silly internet trends of course. Thank you

Hey ! I've been smiling the whole time while reading "We Can’t Rewatch Our Way Out of This". I had these kind of ideas in my mind for a long time and reading someone who put them into written form does create a positive echo. I like that this blog reminds me of the old internet where corporations didn't own everything, including our attention. I think it only highlights how much humans need to also find resonance with things and other humans that this genuine need for connection cannot be made through an algorithmic or robotic means. To say it in more common parlance : we want to vibe. In any case, thank you ! I'm definitely vibing with this blog

Thank you so much for the work that you do here! In a time where the online world is mostly empty, bereft of humanity and feeling, where we drown on slop and algorithm induced brain rot, your website and your writing reminds me of better times, when the internet was a place for community, connection, and most importantly, FUN!

i saw your dreamcast y2k futurism piece on critical distance and i really liked it, and i like what you're doing with this whole website, it feels as if you're fighting back against the whole dead internet, capitalist sterile web with this haven of personal art and activity.

I think your pokemon thing in the banner of your posts is so cool! It made me add it to my own site! I was introduced to your site from your post here and oh man it really exemplifies how fun it is to see other people sites, see cool stuff, and implement it in your own!

I had forgotten about Toonami Aftermath until reading your recent blog post. Also, I just tried setting up a few devices to stream it from the available m3u8 playlists for watching without bringing up their website. Possible! I hope to catch Ed, Edd, n Eddie and Courage the Cowardly Dog sometimes! Looking forward to reading your next post!

I really enjoy the feature to listen to music that goes along with each blog post. I think I may borrow that idea for blog posts too. By the time I've finished reading one of your blog post, I feel very relaxed.

I played flash games growing up, but I never went as far as you did, the most I did was playing hacked versions of them if I thought the game was too hard also towards the end of its life I saw bunch of polished flash games using mobile game monetization tactics, it was pretty sad

My daughter's heavily into Scratch (a kinda drag-and-drop programming language for kids), and watching her browse the site and check out the memes etc was the first time in a long time I'd felt like the Flash spirit was still alive, albeit in the kids. Grown-ups need it too. But where the hell is your RSS feed! I wanna add you to my reader!
