Regarding https://felipepepe.medium.com/the-gentrification-of-video-game-history-dfe11f1e08ae
I haven't seen a GameBoy IRL until 2018. NES was a very viable gaming platform in my locality well into 00s, though a few lucky kids had a SEGA Genesis or (gasp) a PS1. Most kids indeed went to a "computer club"; having a local club and knowing its admin meant your game saves won't be erased between the times you visit the place - using floppies for backups wasn't always allowed due to endless viruses. Fun times. Strange times
mutual aid urgently needed
Hey, I'm a domestic abuse survivor who's slowly getting their life together.
I've gradually been finding better opportunities but sometimes things can still be a struggle for me, and I didn't have an easy time of my mental health in December so I'm currently set to not be able to afford rent (£400) in a few days.
Any help would be greatly appreciated:
someone just crossed the tracks on foot and holy shit the db security guys showed up immediately
I was gonna be like "yeah trains rule but in between you have to spend 20 minutes at Duisburg Hbf" but wow the roof not literally coming down is an improvement (also don't be mad at me I love Duisburg)
I get it from my family who seem to have an endless stream of coupons but y'know, Severance is great, watch it
