Omg that guy must be mentally ill. How did you stumble on him?

That trance chat room log with all the desperate sexy chatterbots vying for attention while the mentally ill cyberapocalypse musclemen bicker with each other is a thing of beauty. Such a romantic notion, traveling through the teeming second life being propositioned every step of the way by digital prostitutes who would rob you of your last shekel of cryptocurrency while you argue matters of ideological life and death with the man who stole from you the only Turing-approved chatterbot you ever loved.

Do you all discuss this stuff with people off board? Have you ever tried to explain it to your moms?

forum trawling. yeah, there are a lot of great ideas in there, i keep hoping he's got a homemade game hidden somewhere. he has a shitload of blogs like those and a myspace and soundcloud and stuff. btw myspace looks totally different now, for some reason i assumed it had just ferociously and increasingly stubbornly stuck with the original 2007y design all this time.
 
i explained vaporwave to my mom and she remembers salt world because i brought it up to explain why i got a package from catamites (goblet grotto). but i've never even tried to talk surrealism / conceptual videogame stuff with anyone irl. it feels like a whole new tier of nerdery within the initial nerdery zone that most people are comfortable with

i guess the dwarf fortress adventure mode got dialogue at some point and here's some pretty amazing results.
 

 

 

ahhhh that dialogue!! more like die-alogue! its just so perfect, it's a world of despair

everyone is so nonchalant and utterly resigned to being in the game of dwarf fortress
 

 

 
an intimidating Midnight Crone proves surprisingly chill
 

 
what's more: apparently your character in adventure mode sometimes cries. when it was brought up on the df forums, the programmer explained that the player's character still emotionally processes things using the built-in randomly generated personality every living thing in the game has, but the only way it affects the character's behavior is by crying...

Those Dwarf Fortress conversations are incredible.
 

 
My gf also sent me this:

I'm sure y'all have seen it, but I'd completely forgotten about it. Consider it a guest post.
 
Also, I could use help on the blog! A post here, a post there. I've got it up and running to my satisfaction, I think.
