i'm not really sure why i'm so invested in the state and the future of the internet when i wrote it off as FUBAR and beyond salvage like six years ago. i should probably look into this "outside" thing everyone's so hyped up about...

a nice thing about when the internet was a bunch of little sites and servers was that it was a lot harder for governments to pressure "the chat provider everyone uses" to implement age verification.
you wanna pressure 300 separate IRC servers? good luck with that. but one company? easy

hundred line has a lot of "the heroes stand there watching the enemy do something that's going to make dealing with them 3000% more hard than if they just kicked them in the balls before it happened" cutscenes and i can say i've never managed to suspend disbelief enough to enjoy those

everyone 180'd from "turn off your screen bro" regarding people seeing upsetting stuff online to "someone has to do something NOW!!!" and forgive me for wondering why this only suddenly became such a hot issue around the time the internet's economic and social upheaval potential became apparent

part of why i'm interested in the pretty promising experiments to reverse aging in rodents isn't just the possibility of living much longer (which would be cool, there's much to see and do in the world) but because we'd witness a whole new level of discourse the likes of which has never been seen

as much as i miss all the spinny poppy slidey stuff that comes with things like cds i don't miss the data loss that comes with them degrading forgotten in storage for 30 years. some of these little guys are spinning it up in cd valhalla if you catch my drift.

trying to will myself back into mania. briefly wondering if snorting fun dip actually does it, if not for the effects then for the sheer absurdity of the act. life's not fun when the air feels like it's 700 pounds on the top of your head. no i'm not actually going to snort sugar.

very happy everyone else seems to hate tycho. i think the most brutal part of the first poker night is how he's the tightest player at the table so most games you're left facing him down. if you're lucky you get max instead. thankfully by that point the character you're facing basically shuts up.
