A game show that many of us born in the eighties wanted to be on.
When I think about it, maybe the precursor to Nintendo Wii.
This was the future in the early '90s

The nickelodeon games website was my go-to way to escape the monotony of my childhood. This game was the closest the website had to a complete game and was lots of fun

I fell for the advertising for this as a kid and it ended up under the tree one christmas. It's a game where you watch TV and hang out with a Pikachu, talk to Pokemon, go out in the world. A life sim, maybe? Who knows. It's slow and meandering but I loved it, spent hours in the in-game paint tool and named my Pikachu "Bruce" after my favorite stuffed animal at the time. I've revisited it throughout the years; showed it to my niece who enjoyed it and would pester me to put it in the Wii when I babysat her when I was a teen as well as through emulation as an adult. It's chill and calm, a weird blip on the Pokemon timeline.

a fucked up little NES game where you try (and usually fail) to roll a marble to the end of an obstacle course. clearly the prototype for monkey ball, marble blast, etc. one of many retro games my cousin introduced to me through wii hacking.
the thing i remember most vividly about it is about how on the (famously brutal) penultimate level, ”silly race,” the screen flashes with the message “EVERYTHING YOU KNOW IS WRONG.” to this day i don’t know what that’s about. it made 6-year-old me feel like i was in they live

Social media can encourage us to constantly seek out the novel and makes us feel like we're missing out if we don't.
It's much better for peace of mind, in my opinion, if we let go of the immediate, and use impermanence as our filter for information.
We don't all need to watch the latest streaming show, or hear the latest album.
What needs to find us, and what we need to find, usually finds a way

One of the greatest melodies created by human beings A song about sex that doesn't say sex.
The music industry worst nightmare of being told by your artistic-interfering label that you need a hit single, but then the hit single you created was "Dancing In The Dark"

In a world where monopolization is allowed, sometimes you can only drop Trader Joe's for union busting, while keeping your Amazon account.
Real, wide change in this world might require a new 2020, but we can do a little bit better a little at a time
