When I was depressed in university, I would spend hours in the computer labs doing nothing and then walk back to my apartment at 3, 4, 5 in the morning. Walking down empty major streets with only the occasional car driving past was the most liminal I've ever felt.

my university town has all low light pollution lights that are a pleasant deep orange, and in the winter with snow everywhere at 3am walking the empty campus streets was super liminal, almost as liminal as the night the power went out and the whole sky was lit up purple for reasons Idk

My lowkey liminal job. I used to work at a large amusement park and sometimes was stationed at the back of the park. After closing, I had to walk a mile and a half in the dark past closed attractions, dimmed lights, and the forgotten trash and belongings of passerby. In spite of the lights turning off, the various electric lockers and TVs always stayed on. I think even now, there may be an advertisement for tickets being broadcast to one of those empty spaces. Not a viewer in sight.

Last time Natalie streamed this game it was Fevruary 2021 and it had been one year of online courses and empty streets in my college town. I was incredibly depressed and lonely and had to prepare for moving alone. Having Natalie do this stream was so soothing and comforting at the time.

My liminal job: I worked in a techno club in berlin for five years. I cleaned in between partys, often early morning hours when the floors closed for a bit, the florescent lights illuminated the broken glass, cigarette butts, lost items like plastic flowers and lipsticks. they created still lifes I often took photos of. I loved seeing what was left of the nights I never was part of. I always worked alone and it was the most quiet, melancholic and exhausting job I ever had.

My liminal job experience: I used to work the opening shift as a lifeguard in high school. I would go into the empty, dark community center before dawn and have to set everything up for the day. There were three glass walls, I watched the sun rise through them. The most liminal part was probably the maintenance room, which was always dark and full of pipes.

This has been posted a while ago but whatever... I'm french and I live in a very old and small village in the central mountains of metropolitan france. some days I start work extra early. Here, public lighting is only on for a few hours (it's turned off from 23h00 to 05h00). When I exit my house which used to be the watchtower in the 8th century and I walk down the narrow street at 04h30 in almost complète darkness, with only the sounds of the insects for company, it's a very liminal experience. Especially when I walk past the fountain/"lavoire" (can't find a translation) in the center of the village, because it's a small colonnade covered by a roof, and the inside is so dark it feels like the darkness is watching me. Then I get to my loud ass car and it ruins everything .

@0:28 when i was like 5 or 6, my family was in a car, and we stopped at a T intersection just outside the city. we could see far to the left and right, no one was coming to the intersection. but it stayed red seemingly forever. eventually we just drove past the red light, but at some point [either before or after] my dad said that someday, maybe like 20 years later or something, we'd all wake up and realize our lives had been a dream, and we were still waiting back there, at that red light. i'll always remember that light in my late teens or early twenties, i had a dream that i was riding in a car with my mom and younger brother. one of them said or asked something about whether we had died some time ago, and were now just continuing (like drifting through some kind of limbo or something). they both agreed they believed that. years later, i was with my mom and younger brother, and one of them said something very similar to this. that maybe we had died some time ago, but somehow this was all still continuing as some kind of afterlife. they both agreed. i don't believe in weird magic stuff. but i didn't say anything, because at the time i was concerned they would superstitiously believe my dream had been magic or whatever. still, i don't think it was pure coincidence. i think it's because that's the kind of vibe they both were starting to give off. more than one mind can come up with a similar fitting metaphor for the way their life feels. see also psychological conditions like "derealization", which different people have described similarly to each other, and which my mother has experienced

this is the best game to watch/listen to natalie play during studying because it evaporates all emerging thoughts of looming deadlines and the catastrophic importance of performing well, and pacifies your overworked mind to simply find meaning in this liminal moment of dense intellectual practice and let go of the future and the past.

my liminal job: I used to work at a supermarked where on mondays before opening we'd set up all the products on sale (this was liminal in and of itself). One time in winter I biked to work in the dark along the street lined with beautiful trees, but it seemed the first tree was missing. I concluded that I was still not quite awake (it was before 6 am after all) and kept going. But then, when I went home around in the afternoon, in the broad daylight I realised that all the trees had been cut down over the course of the hours that I'd been at work. Being exhausted from working and very little sleep, it felt like complete unreality and it took until the next day to process that it had really happened, when I saw that the bare street was indeed real.

I used to go out walking at night, loving how liminal it was before even knowing the word. I live in Montreal, and when I was depressed and unemployed, I would go to the Oratory in Montreal at 3 AM. Seeing uniquely grandiose religious architecture, at dead of night, up close, was liminal in a way nothing else I had ever seen was.

My family once took a 6,000 mile roadtrip across the US to drop my sister off at college. Most of the time when we made a stop, I had no idea what state I was in. Halfway through the trip we decided to stay the night in a trailer park. There wasn’t a soul there, aside from the owners. They scooted around on a golf cart and never stopped smiling. I wish I took photographs. Hundreds of vacationers had left what i would call ‘Florida Christmas displays’ on terf lawns next to their trailers. I guess they agreed on a theme at some point and just went ham. There must have been a thousand pink flamingos and pastel lawn chairs. And the dusk light made everything kind of glow. Even the sun felt like an orb of plastic on a puppet string. 10/10 my liminal peak

I love watching you play this game in particular though it scares the living daylights out of me. I was trapped in a scenario almost exactly like this whilst in an induced coma following a troublesome surgery. I may have commented that already, but I am serious. I was two-dimensional. It is not only in a game that this can be experienced, but it is catastrophically traumatizing. I am going to use this as an example of the experience for a video. Thank you for producing it Madam. Your services are appreciated. 👊

I remember going at a clothing shop with my mother with these security tags on the clothes that looked exactly like Blankie's face. I stole a security tag from behind the register and I got caught on the way out. I embarrassed my mother but I was only sad cause I couldn't make a Blankie of my own.
