The Artichoke Monster’s Internet Herbarium
A botanical field guide to one person’s internet projects, including browser games, a fictional stock market, a mock API server, and two carpet-themed tycoons.
Why it surfaced
This is a portfolio with an actual point of view: five projects are presented as living specimens, complete with accession numbers, cultivation status, tags, and a wonderfully odd leaf-removal mechanic. The collection ranges from a Turkish rug-overlocking game to a roughly 25 MB self-hosted mock API, making the catalog itself as entertaining as its contents.
