I miss the more independent internet we had, before it was all on four social media platforms selling your soul to make Skynet. Maybe a social media platform can be a good thing but my suspicion is that a privately owned for profit one can't. It's the difference between a public park and Disneyland
Was thinking recently about how I found my favorite webcomics because I found a couple popular ones like VG Cats and Ctl+Alt+Del and they had pages with links to other cool comics and stuff. Found a lot on the VG Cats link page I stuck with. All their own webpages, though not often self hosted
That's awesome dude, I love the internet and being old.
The important unspoken distinction he’s making, that many liberal Americans make, is that’s the worst thing Obama did that effected THEM. They were not targeted by drone strikes, they were insulated from the recession by class, they miss a President that’s a problem for others and not themselves
Looked it up because I knew it was also a big thing in the 90s with subcultures like hacking and fandoms and my knee-jerk assumption was "Well of course we decided to call them "zines" it was the 90s" so finding out it goes back to the 40s was pretty amusing
Y'know I got curious because I wasn't sure of the origination of the word but apparently it's accepted that it was first used as early as 1940 not to contract "magazine" but "fan magazine" to denote the independent nature before becoming more popular in the 70s with punk culture indie publishing

I manually changed the icon file my shortcut was using to my file but I reinstalled it from Steam some time later and the icon is vector now! I've never bothered to check if they're using my file or their own and frankly it's funnier to speculate than find out for sure
A few years back I got so frustrated that the game Astroneer's desktop icon was absurdly low resolution on release that I found a decent rez version of the logo, reproduced it in Inkscape, got the vector file packaged in a .ico, and joined their official Discord just to drop it and leave xD
At this point I’m on my hands and knees begging people. I live with someone who watches BREADTUBE and identifies as non binary that still PAYS to play the games and buy Freddy plushies. This isn’t about denying the money for me anymore, just help me have faith in the sanity of humanity. I need this
BUT HEY!

THAT'S JUST A Segway to remind you that the FNAF creator/this movie's screenwriter, Scott Cawthon, donates the money he makes from FNAF stuff to far right politicians, many of whom are currently trying to make things worse for everyone, specifically trans people. Don't support this film.

Found this on the AO3 subreddit, and I'm about to let it change my whole life (or at least work really hard to internalize it wrt my writing).

i like non-traditional titles that still relay a power dynamic...
... where's my 'yes chef' panties...
It was so cooked it didn't even really understand why Dill in the Rugrats All Grown Up series was viscerally relatable
Adding to this, there is not a binary state of being in a position of terrible authority on the global stage and isolationism. That’s a false dichotomy. It’s a gradient and there would be nothing wrong with being involved on the world stage on a healthier and more equal footing with everyone else
