- purble place was a straight gateway drg into PC gaming (and the games that came with the ‘90’s-‘00’s paddlepop stick ice creams (rainbow flavour was goated))
- my littlest petshop made me feel like the prettiest girl at the party every time
(tekken on the PSP also gets an honourable mention - the PSP walked so the nintendo switch could run)

Had to come and do a second rec on this genre of nostalgic games. So often I go into (misogynistic) gamer inherited thinking and ignore this whole genre as a legitimate form of gaming. I spent hours on my family computer playing games like My Scene, especially the Barbie Myscene nails game that came with printable stickers so you could print out the nails to wear. I also loved My Little Pony Friendship Gardens, so colourful and lovely. I spent lots of time on Neopets and Club penguin and other online games like that too.

Jumpstart Animal Adventures that I’d play ALL the time before and after Primary School. This echolocation song was burned into my brain and I still catch myself singing the words “I find my prey I find my way, echo-loca-tion yeahhh” : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vvr4KSDA9Yo
(Batney Ears tho, iconic)
also I had an early game save just to leave Jak & Daxter running on Sentinel Beach even when I wasn't actively playing it, purely so I could listen to its theme whenever I wanted. My parents would get annoyed at me for leaving the TV on haha, but hearing it always made me feel so calm (:

tried reading dante alighieri’s inferno. key emphasis on tried. i got bored and realised a story written in poem form is not my typa beat.
i tried because it seemed like what all the indie hipsters who are well versed would read, and that i would look cool and niche—but it just cost me $25.
i prefer crazy detailed paragraphs rather than a line by line story.
anyways
