true but I think it is even closer to the individual: it was pioneered by those who grew up seeing the erosion of the cozy 'third space' where you're welcome and people hang out.
liminal horror is the exact opposite of these feelings, a reflection of what most of our lived reality is nowadays
free idea for Simpsons writers

The Backrooms is a pretty apt horror mythos for a generation growing up in Ghost Town America. Fake job listings, empty houses, studios spending $200m on a movie just to shelf it for a tax break. We already live in a hollow, uncanny facsimile of American life built by powerful aliens.
never thought I'd see the day The Simpsons pay homage to a Satoshi Kon film

so much of the current horrible cultural moment is this simple I think

Freckles is facing eviction again and could use our help. Can I ask my followers to share and support if they can?
Hey folks, internet behaved itself tonight, so I was able to have a terrific stream where I played some absolutely fantastic demos! Now, I hear there's lots of upset about Next Fest being riddled with AI slop, so here's a thread on demos I played to help you find some neat ones to try yourselves!
Hey folks, I've been neglecting updating my curator page lately, but I've just added Forbidden Solitaire! It's an absolutely fantastic time, where the moment to moment gameplay and the unfolding meta narrative are equally gripping. Huge thumbs up for this one! 👍
But let's talk about some demos I tried: RETRO SPACE scratches my im-sim itch FIERCE but some design decisions leave me confused. Example: quicksaves are there, but die and it's deleted. Also, you can revive wrong and you have to find your body to stabilise your genes. Dark Souls in my im-sim???
its possible everyones just mad that trans people post better than they do
KERNAL HEARTS is a magical girl themed RISK OF RAIN 2 with a hub area where you can talk to and build relationships with the other playable characters. And much like that game, I need to find the one character I vibe with (ENGINEER!) otherwise the roguelike gameloop is lost on me.
