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

My grandparents had this game on their desktop Mac when I was a kid. I only ever played it at their house, in the back bedroom with the cushion on the chair so I could reach the keyboard. Look at the artistry! This marble is so well-traveled! The sky is so big!

spent the last two weeks working on an interactive guide, recommendations database, and digital library (link depot) to help get people off of social media. the first draft is done now, and it's at the link to this post. it's still very much a work in progress (the library is especially thin atm) - which is why i wanted to share it here before unleashing it upon my IRL friends and the general public. i welcome any and all feedback, bug reports, and suggestions for things to add. i will be pushing updates to it out like a madman in the coming weeks, so be sure to check back every so often to see new additions to the database and library. additionally, i am still on the hunt for newsletters from local venues / community organizations / magazines / newspapers, etc. the only cities i have remotely covered so far are nyc, orlando, denver, brisbane, and little bits of worcester and chicago. if you know anything in your area that fits the bill, send it my way!

chronological feeds on social media are a dying breed and it's so important to maintain the ones you still have
