yeah, it seems like i’m younger than you, but i also really miss the online ecosystem from when i was a kid… the ffn forums, deviantart, my specific little hellish corner of tumblr… looking back at those places, it’s like a ghost town of broken links and conversations where i don’t recognize myself. the recent shutdown of omegle and the news about tumblr is also getting to me, the impermanence of it all…

"You raised me wrong. At least give me a fucking car." Hilarious AND fair!

@daughterofbilitis I've been trying to figure out how exactly this happened, because even in the mid-late 2010s it wasn't that bad! Even after Facebook was introduced and LJ users migrated to Tumblr there were still active pockets on other sites, but after lockdown it seems more people abandoned those... Even some Japanese fanart sites still online moved to Twitter.

love the Ivy shrine. I know absolutely nothing about Fire Emblem (played part of one game when I was in high school, couldn't tell you which because that was...ha...awhile ago...) but I just like the way you write about things + the level of detail + presentation of such. happy belated birthday Ivy!

omg I actually had a copy of FE7 in high school, back when Gamestop had used DS and GBA games on display... I'm shocked it's interesting to someone unfamiliar because I assumed only people familiar would look, but I did add spoiler tags for a reason.

I just tested the new shrine on my phone and it does not respond well :( will fix ASAP!!!

I think making regrettable statements online is like a rite of passage for anyone growing up in a technological world. At least in our case, we don't have our real names or faces attached, unlike the legions of kids dancing ironically to songs with slurs in them on TikTok...

LOL yeah it's even worse now! People were more forgiving back then too, not so much now...

oh this shrine is too cute. happy birthday to charizard1246!

happy birthday charizard1246

hope charizard1246 had a very special birthday!!

He did! I had to tweak his page's code a bit but I might request time off again next year for him.

That bg image is giving 90s movie theater carpet and I'm 100% here for it

I'm pretty sure that's what it is! The last time I was at a bowling alley it had carpet like that and I couldn't stop staring...
