Thank you for reading!

guys, listen

it’s okay to acknowledge that Peridot and Lapis’s relationship wasn’t perfect, that Peridot was afraid of her and afraid of upsetting her, that Lapis is a flawed character, that there was an unhealthy amount of reliance Peridot had on Lapis being there. just because you like lapidot (and i do) doesn’t mean you can’t accept that their relationship up to this point was flawed, that Lapis has done bad things and hurt people. This is why Lapis leaving happened- so they can both separately come to terms with themselves and what was wrong, and when they see each other again, apologize and work on a healthy relationship. Because it’s obvious they legitimately care about each other, and it’s important that they understand each other fully.

I love my gay farmer aunts as much as the next person, and because of that I’m happy that they have this character development to experience.

This is the closest thing to Pearlapis Content™ the show has given us and honestly at this point I’ll take it

I liked it when steven was like you know what will get the feral lapises to think earth is cool. freestyle dance

i think the near-extinction of people making fun, deep and/or unique interactive text-based browser games, projects and stories is catastrophic to the internet. i'm talking pre-itch.io era, nothing against it.

there are a lot of fun ones listed here and here but for the most part, they were made years ago and are now a dying breed. i get why. there's no money in it. factoring in the cost of web hosting and servers, it probably costs money. it's just sad that it's a dying art form.

anyway, here's some of my favorite browser-based interactive projects and games, if you're into that kind of thing. 90% of them are on the lists that i linked above.

A Better World - create an alternate history timeline

Alter Ego - abandonware birth-to-death life simulator game

Seedship - text-based game about colonizing a new planet

Sandboxels or ThisIsSand - free-falling sand physics games

Little Alchemy 2 - combine various elements to make new ones

Infinite Craft - kind of the same as Little Alchemy

ZenGM - simulate sports

Tamajoji - browser-based tamagotchi

IFDB - interactive fiction database (text adventure games)

Written Realms - more text adventure games with a user interface

The Cafe & Diner - mystery game

The New Campaign Trail - US presidential campaign game

Money Simulator - simulate financial decisions

Genesis - text-based adventure/fantasy game

Level 13 - text-based science fiction adventure game

Miniconomy - player driven economy game

Checkbox Olympics - games involving clicking checkboxes

BrantSteele.net - game show and Hunger Games simulators

Murder Games - fight to the death simulator by Orteil

Cookie Clicker - different but felt weird not including it. by Orteil.

if you're ever thinking about making a niche project that only a select number of individuals will be nerdy enough to enjoy, keep in mind i've been playing some of these games off and on for 20~ years (Alter Ego, for example). quite literally a lifetime of replayability.

lapis art i forgot to post the other night, and my first time drawing her i think! she’s slowly becoming my favorite
