a black ink outline sketch of a small cat with triangular ears and head, triangular body with small arcs for front toes, and a tail that is flat except for the tip which is 'fwiping'. his eyes are swirls which imply looking slightly sideways

I learned to type on a row of like 4 of these in the back of a class room that had those big black science desks filled with electronic typewriters.

Well, for context: Public wifi was a new thing, and smartphones didnt exist.

The Sony Clie I had a sketch app, class/homework organizer, grocery/todo app. Graphing calculator, and a star chart.

PocketPC I used for collecting RSS news in Panera parking lots. and Pocket Internet Explorer.

logo making and photoshopping is quite fun =^^= I tend to work in inkscape a lot more, since you can just drag stuff around and tweak it.

I still have my original two PDAs, they used to sit in either side of my cargo dress work pants when I did IT work long ago.

hes been lovely, a lot of his personality has unfolded over the past few months. he wants to play all the time, but only with like string or milk caps, not fancy toys. he can catch things out of the air 5 ft up. and he loves pouncing sounds under crinkly paper like those youtube videos of snow foxes

1 treasured device is better than 100 on a shelf.

Look forward to your endeavors! I think my peak sewing was making big furry paws for halloween one year, wore a vintage blazer inside out with a tacky silk pattern, top had with cat ears, cane, kind of a hobo cat.

I cant even find the sauce anymore.. I think it was a vine? This came from one of those vine compliation channels that thrived back then. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ykh...

classic mistake. I'm interested in _everything_

btw here are my first 5, if you can call it that. I used steam mostly as a counterstrike lobby in the early days.

I bought my Dreamcast out of a big glass case like that.. from Rhino games in the mall, for I think $30 bucks? Lovingly wrapped like a mummy in cling wrap.

PSA:

You know, you can just 'start a conversation' with me right?

Like, I'm on various platforms. You can just say things and ill also say them back!

I exist outside of this performative hellscape of social media likes. I desire friendships.
