a roaring of tense colors, and interlacing of opposites and of all contradictions, grotesques, inconsistencies:

refer to the transitional or transformative spaces that exist between distinct phases, states, or conditions. The term "liminal" comes from the Latin word "limen," meaning "threshold." Liminal spaces can be both physical and metaphorical, and they are often associated with ambiguity, disorientation, and a sense of being in-between.

as an aesthetic genre, emerged alongside its musical counterpart in the early 2010s. It is characterized by a distinctive visual style that often incorporates elements of early internet culture, 1980s and 1990s nostalgia, glitch art, and surrealism.

Exhaustion and frustration replace his usual determination, each jump and death blending into a blur of punishing obstacles. Every trap and invisible block now haunts him, his mind stuck in an endless loop of brutal challenges.

Mario prays for death to take him.

Post video game stuff here (if you want).

We were talking about web comics with themes of depression on the other thread. I did like that one, and while I can relate with the anxiety-induced isolation of the character, I can't relate with the cuteness of it all. There is nothing cute about my life.

I wanted to share enough of this comic to show you what I mean.

only consists of the dc Emotional Hardcore scene and the late 90's Screamo scene. What is known by "Midwest Emo" is nothing but Alternative Rock with questionable real emo influence. When people try to argue that bands like My Chemical Romance are not real emo, while saying that Sunny Day Real Estate is, I can't help not to cringe because they are just as fake emo as My Chemical Romance (plus the pretentiousness). Real emo sounds ENERGETIC, POWERFUL and somewhat HATEFUL. Fake emo is weak, self pity and a failed attempt to direct energy and emotion into music. Some examples of REAL EMO are Pg 99, Rites of Spring, Cap n Jazz (the only real emo band from the midwest scene) and Loma Prieta. Some examples of FAKE EMO are American Football, My Chemical Romance and Mineral EMO BELONGS TO HARDCORE NOT TO INDIE, POP PUNK, ALT ROCK OR ANY OTHER MAINSTREAM GENRE

I've been diving back into old emo/screamo after not listening to a lot of it for over ten years. I'm keeping a record of things I've been listening to in this thread so that maybe I won't forget all the obscure records this time around.

The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel. Beneath it, we carve out our neon dreams and dystopian fantasies. This is the Cyberpunk Thread, a digital alleyway where art bleeds into reality, and reality is as mutable as the code that binds us.

Welcome to the future, chummer.

ITT post screen caps of social media tier stupidity.

Twitter, Bluesky, Mastodon. It's all the same shit if you ask me.

>>0x000001

Flux, this was a good thread idea. The main problem is that almost no one uses Mastodon anymore. But lucky for us, all the social media platforms are just as stupid as each other, so we can farm any of them potentially.

I'm hijacking the OP of this thread because that's something I have the power to do. But it's only because I think this thread has potential.

Don’t Even Post Viper

Is it because of my inadequacy as a programmer?

Recently had the chance to dive into the world of teledildonics for the first time, and I’m genuinely excited about the possibilities this technology opens up.

For those who haven’t heard of it before, teledildonics is a fascinating field of technology that allows for remote interaction with sex toys via the internet. Essentially, it lets you connect with someone on a physical level, even if you're miles apart. Imagine sending or receiving sensations from your partner through a device—it's like bridging the gap between virtual and physical intimacy.

She's an Indonesian artist based in Singapore. Her work is erotic and sexually charged but not explicitly pornographic for the most part. I'm going to be dumping a lot of her stuff so I want to make sure you know she has a store and you can find her everywhere.

Holy shit this site is dead. But that isn't going to stop me from posting one of my favorite Youtubers. He's one of the few currently active "modern" content creators that keeps old Internet humor alive. You can smell the breath of Something Awful distinctly and love it.

Rising like a phantom from the skyline of Pyongyang, it’s a towering relic of retrofuturism, where ambition and reality collide. Constructed to be a symbol of power, it instead became a monument to an unfinished future. 105 floors of unrealized potential, forever suspended in time, a glitched masterpiece on the edge of a utopia that never came.

Step inside, where smooth elevator music echoes through empty halls, and pastel sunsets wash over distant horizons. This is the Ryugyong Hotel—where the past meets the future...

And where websites go to die.

Questions:

How high was your egg count when you stopped playing?

What did you think of the egg collection?

How often did you feel like hits that should have landed did not?

What do you think would be important to improve about the sword swinging?

Do you have any other questions?

You probably noticed already but the future of this site is being a blog on the front page. I built a system where a board post can be attached to a blog post to use the thread as a comment space for the blog.

One problem with that is that if every blog post had its own thread, the board would become filled with unnecessary threads. So this is going to be the default comment thread.

Welcome to the board.

It's my personal pastebin -- a modified instance of pinnwand. The uploads will automatically expire.

This is a terrible game prototype inspired by games like Vampire Survivor. It's not very good but I made it and you can try it out in your browser.

Just kill stuff, collect the silver drops, get upgrades when you level up. I made it pretty easy since there is no point in making a shitty, unfinished game difficult.

If you're having trouble, try putting one point onto bullet_damage and every other point into fire_cooldown until you are able to easily kill anything. Grab a max_hp upgrade if you're close to dying. Then increase your bullet_scale and oscillation and whatever else you want.

If you have any ideas what I could do to make this better, feel free to let me know and I might come back to it.

It's a demo for an interactive character creation experience in what could be a choose your own adventure of some kind if it was finished. It has a nice interface, an audio engine, and pretty colors. It can save your character in the browser. That's about it.

Not much going on other than that but it's pretty cool I guess if you're interested in raycasting algorithms.
