You might be an Internet Ancient if you:
@InvaderXan I feel old and called out :) I wrote an article for the youth newspaper segment about Napster (while my hard drive was about half full with my first mp3 collection! *shoutout to Macster! Real ones know!*)
My search engines were Infoseek, Alta Vista, and occasionally Ask Jeeves.
I grew up with Hotline and Limewire (and I'm super glad they both had Mac clients cause I never caught a virus. I occasionally got a badly tagged file.
@anthracite I don't know why more books don't! I love that shit! I never thought to do it on my own!
@Leucrotta Batman Returns. Or Home Alone 2. I think that's an Elfman. Great name for a Christmas movie composer.
This feels like poetry. As I understand things, that makes it poetry. Sure. why not.
@IceWolf Oh god it's probably bad.

.o0O(Nah.)
What happens to the the toots untooted?
How do the bytes feel to be retreating?
The lighting sand was at your command,
but
you stay your hand.
But it was there, waiting,
a hope for connection, some meaning,
from brain down nerve to finger to the, the, the inherited Interface that has the potential, the power, to reach every. mind. on. the planet...
and cmd (or ctrl) + a delete/(or x if your on mobile)
and another universe dies.
Well, maybe it should've. We'll never know. I wasn't casting your spell.
Your reason was yours, cause so is your power. Don't let it go your head.
@fluxom_alt I'll allow it.
@fluxom_alt How'd you get this picture of me?!
⛔ A conviction
They will never test enough. They will never care enough.
Most political history taught today can be summed up with the phrase "These white men are dangerous."
And they keep clawing over themselves, keeling themselves, each other, and everyone else to prove it, like we don't believe it.
I'm tired. They all should lick each other's asses and die.
@Leucrotta the capitalistic engine necessary for time travel to be funded, and a hit list for out time Travelling assassins to eliminate 1 by 1, generating enough chronal paradox energy to both power the device for the next hop, help navigate properly backwards in time, and to generate a chronic shockwave through time, causing cascading improvements that can be tracked through the next anime franchise.
My Trans Experience (+, 0, ~)
Turns out Dr R needed my name for a very specific reason. I now have her written and signed word that I am a "Legit and medically treated trans woman"
Name change and gender marker change is now closer.
re: Hot Firearms take
@Motodrachen So far, the only one that seems to not have any exceptions is "when Mom is within earshot."
re: Hot Firearms take
@Motodrachen Gravity is a good word for it. I've never felt the pure excitement I hear other gun owners talk about. Not without shades of anxiety that are impossible to ignore. I think the best I can hope for is acceptance of their reality, safe competence in their use, and the fortune to come home again should I ever have to use one against another person.
I don't know if I'd like myself that much if Guns ever became pure fun.
I've told myself I'll never carry just to carry. That I'd only walk around with a gun if daily active shooting was something I'd have to walk through to make it back to my bed at home. We're not there yet.
But I also told myself I would never swear, then that I would never say fuck. Funny how the rules you set for yourself can slip away from you.
*beep* Raow! Are there new friends to find here?
