For some reason, we would only play this when visiting our grandparents, who only had one phone line so we could never use the computer when somebody was on or needed the phone. If you picked up the phone when we were on the Internet, the dreaded dial up tone blast in your ear.
This game is really simple, but we were obsessed with it. I don’t remember playing a lot of games on my own computer, but I was definitely a preteen that was lying in chatrooms.
My younger cousins also introduced me to Happy tree friends…

kinda basic but truly what a fun game. I dabbled in a lot of those multiplayer websites when I was wayyy too young (parents didn’t care abt internet restriction; I’m the youngest child in my fam) but this was just the best. My brother and I used to wait until midnight on holidays to see what the drops would look like. Learned vaguely about sex and bullying and surfing, as much as the website allowed at least. My friend the other day sent me a meme that had a pic of the lighthouse and I felt genuine nostalgia. When it shut down, I dabbled in the legacy ”mod” and have been thinking about getting back into it 🤔 a trip down memory lane!

I know I still have this somewhere and I'd like to get it out and play it again for nostalgia's sake. I probably played it a million times as a kid even though it was the same story over and over lol

The nickelodeon games website was my go-to way to escape the monotony of my childhood. This game was the closest the website had to a complete game and was lots of fun

Humans have always danced. It is part of who we are, yet we have been conditioned to be self conscious, to think that we do not move our bodies good enough. Dancing is beyond judgement. Dancing is not a skill, it is our soul moving through our bodies, expressed in movement. Dancing is healing. Dancing is bodily autonomy. Dancing is FUN! Any feeling you are feeling can be moved through with dance yet even alone, you fear looking foolish. Kill the judge in your mind, shut the fuck up, and MOVE 🌊
