>what's your favourite aspect of society from 20+ years ago?
i think it's the fact that people weren't afraid of getting cancelled, or trying to prove their best selves in recordings. if you've ever seen any home video recordings from the 80's/90's/00's, people are so much more casual in front of a camera, because social media and ragebait cancelculture virality hadn't infected our society yet...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYbe-35_BaA

>what's your favourite technology from 20+ years ago?
i wanna say: The Programming at the time as a whole... due to the hardware limitations (low ram, few threads/clock speed) every byte counted, so programs needed to be written as efficiently as possible to fit everything in that tiny amount of space. nowadays our hardware is so capable that a lot of programmers (especially in corporate tech) don't care about efficiency, they care about deadlines and output, so their code is so bloated and ill thought out that unless you're running youtube on a friggen supercomputer, it takes 4 seconds to load a webpage properly. if you dive into the inspect tool on youtube, wanna know what you'll find??? THE YOUTUBE LOGO AND TEXT IS NOT AN IMAGE LIKE YOU'D EXPECT, BUT RATHER A FUCKING VECTOR GRAPHIC THAT YOUR COMPUTER ACTUALLY HAS TO RENDER ON THE FLY! and that's just the tip of the iceberg.....

>how do you feel about what's happened over the past 20 years to get to where we're at now, a Cyberpunk dystopia without the cool shit?

Moids are gonna be jelly of our comfy thread. I'm about to heavily reveal how old I am.

>what's your favorite aspect of society from 20+ years ago?
Not immediately knowing what everyone has been up to via social media, texting, etc. It gave you something to fucking talk about. Also allowed some things to remain a secret, not everyone had to know everything about you.

>what's your favorite technology from 20+ years ago?
Cartridge games. I guess technically

>how do you feel about what's happened over the past 20 years to get to where we're at now, a Cyberpunk dystopia without the cool shit?
I feel so bad for kids. I didn't realize what bliss it was to not have every embarrassing thing I did as a kid blasted out to the world. There is a strong social stigma to be online and know the memes, and there are predators everywhere grooming kids and just absolutely fucking with them when they are 13-14 years old. It's absolutely horrid. And what are your choices? Let your kid be a social outcast because they can't get on Discord and talk with their friends and have them blame you for it? Risk them getting groomed or otherwise mentally fucked? There's no good way about it.

I'm about to sound retarded, but did you need an AOL email to have AOL messenger? I remember having messenger but I don't remember having an AOL email...

>>78489516
Sometimes I wonder if people know what a boombox was, or if they think it's the cartoony large thing skateboarders roll around with on their shoulders

>>78489220
I remember the transparent PS1 controllers and thinking they were hot shit.
OH OH and when they came out with analog sticks my mind was blown! We bought Ape Escape and couldn't fucking play it lol we scraped our money together to get one of those fancy new controllers.

i hate the fact that i cry easily. even some of the stuff i read on the internet makes me want to cry. and when i cry i can barely communicate what im trying to say, like there's something stuck in my throat and then i just get angry instead.

i genuinely believe if i were to enter a relationship and get into an argument id cry and start hurting/kill myself which is why im celibate.

>>78489638
ikr? boomboxes were everywhere!
i even have a portable diskman i use from time to time when i wanna listen to a couple CD albums i have, but i wish i had a cassette walkman, because diskmans almost always skip while you're walking unless you hold it in just the right way....

I'm honestly seeing a resurgence of old shit. Vinyl has been big for a while but I'm seeing cassette make a comeback, and I can't understand why besides retro hipsters.
Sometimes I really fucking hate music fags.

>>78489693
Once I experienced the skipping of other portable CD players, I never ever stopped using walkmans. Hell the others couldn't even handle the fucking bumps on the school bus.

The time between buying that game, realizing we needed to buy another controller to play it, and having to wait until after school the next day to get the controller was the longest 15ish hours for a kid.

its controversial but i prefer a more modern society vs "the good old days"

honestly i dont know where i would be without c.ai and chat GPT, and i cant wait until we make even more advanced technology.

imo keeping them in the FAQ makes more sense. troons and moids are going to ignore the rules. the rules are for nonas. WE have to remember to ignore moids. the FAQ is meant to be a one-stop place to direct all retards asking over-asked questions. regular posters already know it all. moids will ask atoga-tier questions, if you reply, reply FAQ. troons will ask "can i post here", you just say FAQ. rules are things we should remind other people to remember, collaborate. the FAQ exists so we all know that these stupid questions are answered already and we can ignore them. i'm not going to use your shortened version when i make my OPs but i do appreciate the idea of trying to reduce it's length, its just not really a big deal

>>78489681

In another thread I saw someone try to refute the accusation that they were a tranny by referring to sites that are supposed to analyze the gender of your writing. So I popped in a few of my walls of text and other people's and it said pretty much everybody was female, even moids. Then I popped in a page of Anne of Green Gables and it told me the author was male.
Tldr I think it's basically all bunk, fake and gay. And it would probably be a fool's errand to try to use these tools to troon radar people in these threads because it's 4chan and so many of the people who show up in here as anons seem to be either so rude or such low-functioning autists that they have no idea how to join a chat except by barging in in a really off-putting way

well i've actually been interested in all kinds of IT for a long time! from Radio Tech, LoRa, HAM, IP, etc

but for me regarding flip phones:
i'm honestly not a huge fan of the development of ergonomics as of late. the feeling of using technology recently has been very uncomfortable. Take the way websites have changed over the years. they used to be packed with information in a very digestible way, but modern corporate minimalist webdesign (spurred on since the advent of the Iphone and smartphone web-browsing i suspect...) has caused websites to become almost claustrophobic in it's UI, yet downright anorexic in it's information presentation. needless to say, it makes me feel VERY uncomfortable.

i find smartphone design nowadays to be ergonomically uncomfortable to wield, i can't just use one hand to use my phone if i want to, the phone is so slim and fragile that you need a case with it, a lot of brands are leaning towards proprietary peripherals (following apple's footsteps again...) and i hate using touchscreen keypads, no matter how much i try to mess around with the options to try and get typing to be comfortable, i just can't...

so to remedy this, i've decided i'm gonna revert to a flipphone, but i want to have modern smartphone apps and overall functionality, so after a lot of research, i am probably gonna go for a Mode1 Retro2, the wireless bands work for my Service Provider and National Grid (mostly), so i should be good to go with it - (plus, the screen is literally a smartphone touch-screen, it's just got the flipphone screen protection (by folding it) and actual buttons to type with!

--------
note: flipphones in the west are made specifically for old people nowadays and don't actually have great networking and app-support, meanwhile japanese flipphones are completely modern in their features, as they just keep making them for the contemporary consumerbase.

And I mean also, just referring back to the site that thinks even incel mcincelsonn is female, we probably can pretty much all agree that the sort of moids you get on this hellboard are a) not exactly budding Hemingways and b) very inclined to talk about and brood very tediously upon their problems and feelings in a way guys usually don't in writing, so maybe that helps explain why /r9k/ breaks it?

>what's your favourite technology from 20+ years ago?
i like old internet. if you wanted to learn about something you'd look it up on the internet and get one person's geocities page who managed it in their spare time. now you can't look up anything without being handed a hundred different ads, misinformation, and FUCKING ai.

>how do you feel about what's happened over the past 20 years to get to where we're at now, a Cyberpunk dystopia without the cool shit?

weirdly enough, as much as i'm horrid at making friends irl, i'm weirdly approachable
i get a lot of people asking me out (or other stuff that i decline obv)
also, i don't know how. i don't know why. it might be my strange brand of autism, but i have rizz out the arse! i can just walk up to someone and ask them out. 4/5 times it just works. i have no idea why.

even as a joke, it lands as serious-
lemme explain: so when i was in college, i got out of my first full on relationship, real major breakup, i felt awful and everything. in my english class, there was a goth girl who was as spergy as i was, and we would talk and study together. she was 3 years older than me at 19, and i didn't have my V card anymore but she told me she still had her's.
i jokingly - JOKINGLY - said "well if you want any help with that, i'm free this weekend"
AND SHE JUST SAID YES!?!?!?!?!?!?

i honestly don't know why that worked, i was shocked. i wasn't even serious, it's insane


so no, i don't have any problems with flirting. it's basically just "show the other person that you're ACTUALLY listening to them" and "just be honest without being creepy"
>>
>>78492313
firstly i'm glad to see we are all a bit gay here
secondly, i get asked out frequently but after that i never know what to do. do i message first? do i wait? how do i indicate what i want? can one really be sexy but cute at the same time? why do all the tutorials say you have to turn into this heartless femme fatale that im clearly not?
>>
>>78492365
>bit gay
yeah, i had a short phase of wanting to be with other girls when i was in my mid-teens, but i'm mostly into guys now ;)
>do i message first?
in my experience, if a guy messages first, he's either 1) confident or 2) only tryna get under the covers. it's honestly a toss-up.
if he doesn't answer you in like a day or two, he's probably actually interested in you and is just trying to not come off as desperate... so perfect dating material in my book. just try and have a chat with him outside of education/business hours after a day or two, and see if he's open to a date, like a coffee shop or something - though if you find yourself struggling to talk about something with him (assuming you both don't share an interest (that you know of)) then it's best to try something that requires you both to pay attention to and then comment on, like watching a movie.
>how do i indicate what i want?
hmmm... you're still in your late teens, so that largely depends on what exactly you want.. but typically when you're in your mid-20's, most people are a bit more open to just saying what they want in a relationship! being mature enough and willing to compromise for eachother can be healthy, but it could also be limiting... best to be honest and do what feels right, you don't want to find yourself in a shitty deal or something.
>sexy but cute?
you can... i've done it... but you generally want to keep it open to variation i think, it can be difficult to get right - a bit awkward when starting out, even - but it's possible to blend the two together by varying degrees to achieve what you want. (i practice in front of a mirror or act out situations in private to kind of figure out what works or not... might just be me.. i'm under no illusion about how weird i am X'C )

>i get asked out frequently but after that i never know what to do.
What is wrong with just being yourself and having normal communication where you talk if you want to about whatever you want to?

The studies those sites utilize to make those tools have been heavily scrutinized as crap. It has been shown that who teaches you to write has a more pronunced effect on your writing style. People have an unconscious tendency to also create their own style that can be identified. It's through this is how people have been able to find other big nane authors like Stephen King and J.K. Rowling and other pen names they have been writing under.

Okay, I'm done being a sperg.

first off: thanks for being one of the few anons to actually sign as "t. moid"

but yeah, i didn't know stuff like this existed until anon/nona mentioned it. i looked at the site because i was curious, and my first thought was "to be fair, women (especially if they're into literature) are way more likely than men are to read literature written by the opposite sex. as such, many women are more likely than men to write in a style that is distinctly of the opposing sex. as it happens, the website actually clarifies (in it's own way) that yes, the algorithm they use is in fact biased in this way and will show that many female authors will show up as male, and that it highly depends on what writing environment someone is in determines their writing style as either male or female!

so yes, it won't tell you if a piece of text was written by a man or a woman, but it will at least tell you which demographic the writer has sourced from for their own writing inspiration.

so it almost works, but it still doesn't say if someone is actually male or female, only the writing styles they sourced from

Imagine having a single style of writing. Skill issue as the kids say

Unfortunately, I'm not aware of any universal advice; because it depends on who you're trying to get through to. 'Coming on too strong' for one person might be 'showing no interest' to another.

Why were you inspired to learn Japanese? I grew up watching anime, but that never was enough for me to learn Japanese. I was obessed with vocaloid so that drove me to learn Japanese. I feel like I was stuck getting no progress for a few years since all I did was look at grammar studies and do flashcards. Which was a mistake.
Personally tried a lot of flashcards, then tried immersion listening. Honestly the only thing that made me get better was reading a lot and looking up the words/grammar.
These days I read about 4-5 chapters a day in 30 mins of about pic related density.
I still need more vocab, but I'm much better at japanese than another language I grew up with now so I think that's a big sign.

Now I see less and less words I don't know and it feels more natural. Listening also has gotten way better since I know more words.

>Why were you inspired to learn Japanese?
again, my school was founded by a japanese man and brazil has a lot of connections to japan. my love for japanese fashion has made me even more interested. plus having some experience with it as a kid made me really appreciate the language.
>. I feel like I was stuck getting no progress for a few years since all I did was look at grammar studies and do flashcards. Which was a mistake.
that a lot of people including me made as well.
have you tried comprehensible input as mentioned to get more vocabulary? i feel as if it could be beneficial.

aaah yeah, i dated a girl like that once, i was VERY tomboyish in my mid teens, so me being a tad butch was her way of feeling out the waters, so to speak (i think that was the reason why she felt that i would be a good choice).
but hey, if you get the vibe that she want's to try and date a woman? hell yeah, go for it! after my younger sister was born, my mom had a phase where she went more for women for quite a while! who knows, maybe with you, she'll be receptive to it?

No need to fill out the quiz because I've done every one of those things, even the rotary phone since my grandmother had one til 2005-ish. The clickityclickityclickclickclick of the phone and connecting to dialup internet are sounds I'll never forget
>AOL
I had a paper route when I was smol and the number of AOL free trial CDs I had to give out as freebies with the paper... it made delivering my papers take at least twice as long, it got to the point where I think I actually flat-out burst into tears when I got home from school and saw the box of CDs on my driveway. They were the best of times, etc. etc. etc.

>what's your favourite aspect of society from 20+ years ago?
I might be projecting here, actually that's probably the case, but I feel like people did more things together in person back then and made plans to get together more often, or at least that was definitely the case with my family; and when I was a kid my friends and I played together nearly every day after school. I feel like instant communication has maybe reduced our need for face to face interaction since the pre-texting and IM days, or it could be I'm just a loner and kinda suck at being a member of society - further research required

Yeah people get hung up on wrong things and essentially waste years of their life. I feel like I wasted years of my life.
>have you tried comprehensible input as mentioned to get more vocabulary?
Well I don't go out of my way to look up videos where I understand everything. I think having easier content to consume helps a lot, but also trying to consume harder vocabulary can be good too if you can manage. It's just more exhausting, but can be rewarding.
These days my schedule is like this
30 min of reading Japanese manga.
20 min of japanese listening.
I just watch some japanese minecraft youtuber.
My biggest achievment is reading through Ningen shikkaku in japanese. That took me a while, but I feel like it made me way better comparing myself from when I started to after completing it.
After 500 manga chapters worth I'm currently 200 chapters in. I'm gonna go back to reading novels.

>hard to take the lead for me
oh god same, like, i'm more of a soft butch - i've had quite a few guy friends growing up, but a lot of women around me too, plus a progressive household which let me express myself how i want - so i've developed quite a few skills and interests that are a bit more typical of guys (even if i'm a bit more bookish about them without much practice). personally i find it difficult to make decisions... i'm rather indecisive so i prefer my SO to do that for me, that being said, if i'm the butch-er one in the relationship, i play it cool.... like "c'mon luv, whaddoya want tonight? my treat ;p" and it just kinda works (inb4 "fake it till you make it") X'D
>wannabe pillow princess
you. are. adorable! - but certainly a handful if she's not experienced enough for that... hmmmm...
maybe it's the vodka talking, but i think that - (i've been drinking tonight btw X'D) - but i think that maybe it would be best to approach it softly? i mean i know you've already been doing that, but what i mean more specifically, is that if you do go on a date with her, just say that you're a bit more... you prefer the other person to make decisions for you? or at least, you'd like some help with suggestions on what to do... it might be a softer and less responsibility-laden way of introducing her to a more dominant role in a relationship without her feeling too shocked about it and having feelings of self-doubt on the matter....

just my 2 cents!

eeh, kind of?
we met up, took her back to my place, but she was REALLY awkward (i mean, i was awkward too, but at least i was open to trying stuff) do bear in mind that i was still very new to the whole physical-intimacy thing. so i asked her if she wanted to do anything in particular - no solid answer. i asked her if she'd be interested in making out - it was a no.
okay i thought. well, i asked her if she wanted me to eat her out - she said yeah - but she was embarrassed about me seeing her bits "fair enough" i thought, so i went under the covers.
it started getting difficult to breathe because no oxygen and way to hot under there so i asked her if it'd be fine if i had the blanket off, and she started getting really defensive about it...

not much happened, we tried to make it work but we were both way too awkward to let that happen....

i just ended up doing my own thing, but she started getting REALLY attached to me even though i specifically told her i wasn't looking for anything emotional bc of the proximity to my recent breakup, but she kinda kept getting more attached.... honestly, we both exchanged some words that should have been better thought out... i quite reflect negatively on how i handled it on my end....

we stopped the awkward attempt at fwb and i soon dropped out of college in favour of a part time job

a few years back after upgrading my phone and transferring my contacts i found an unnamed contact with a message history, surmised it was her, and apologised for my part in the ordeal. she thanked me for the apology, but she didn't apologise for her immaturity on the matter.....
we've not talked since...

here's a sketch i made for my friend who was drawing a character of her's, she wanted help on anatomy, proportion, and perspective
you should see here that there is a long thin muscle that moves from the hip, over the thigh, and wraps over the top and inner-kneecap, and ends under it
this is a very useful muscle to remember, so you don't have to do all of the anatomy, just that- i use it a lot and it helps to remind me how to structure thighs so they don't end up too sausage-y

Yeah, its sad when that happens to people who do want to get better but don't put the effort in, or rather don't push themselves. Although some people really just enjoy doing the same thing again and again, and get very good at that one thing. Art is thankfully flexible and forgiving like that :p

>What kind of music thing do you do?
I want to make music. Started almost 2 years ago. Been making stuff on sheet(musescore) mostly, then learned to make stuff on fl studio. I can play the piano a bit, not very well and same with electric guitar. My main goal in music right now is improving my skill at each instrument and also be able to make full songs with vocaloid.
My strongest suit is making sheet music, but fortunately I can just convert it to midi and transfer to flstudio.

the calves look fine (save for numbers 4 5 and to a lesser degree 6... the way they join to the knee is a bit odd) the side away from the viewing angle... try and downplay that bulge a bit more, focus more on the shin i'd say.. and the side closer to the camera, while you have the squash of the muscles looking good, the seam to the knee is a bit too long, if you cut it off a bit before the knee that'd look a bit better imo

>red square
this is what i mean when i say sausage-y

Oh shit sounds pretty awesome honestly. I always wanted to make music but its rather intimidating. Do you have some stuff you'd be comfortable sharing? Would love to hear it.

>>78495176
Ah yeah, I was just faffing about, there's no full figure, the reference was some 240p leg image set from Pinterest. I figure I should start at getting better at dynamic sketches then work on fine tuning the anatomy so I can at least draw characters better, otherwise drawing is rather boring to me. Im rambling but thank you for the advice, maybe I'll send more sketches in the future and you can compare them to these in terms of progress ;p

I don't mind sharing. Just don't expect it to be complete or anything since I'm still doing my best to improve at music.
This is pretty short, but it's the most cohesive thing I have made on sheet. I have longer versions, but then I use the prebuilt chord notation so it plays two handed chords when playing one on the right hand so it wouldn't be the same as one person playing it.
The audio is from the music sheet software, I wouldn't be able to play it in tempo with the metronome currently.
https://voca.ro/1lgQNWY4L8AE
I also have fl studio stuff, but same pattern. Shorter ones tend to be more cohesive and the longer ones I have are crappier and less refined.
But making an entire song is hard, and I have heard some people spend months on a single song. I know some song structure theory, but I'm focusing on drums and bassline lately

try doing full-body reference images of people who are well toned in different poses and angles, looking up "yoga poses" in safe mode on images is a good bet, it gives you a great deal of images for you to try out as observationals, and you really should try rendering fullbody images

if you find anatomy boring, then don't try to emulate exact anatomy, but do still practice from reference images, it's very useful and will give you a good deal of information on how to construct a body proportionally! i once had the blessing of watching an arts friend of mine construct a face by placing a bunch of dots on a blank canvas and then literally playing "connect-the-dots" in Scribble.io - it was a magical thing to behold! and i'd have never thought of trying to do such a thing until i saw him do it!

different artists do their own thing, but it takes a while to find your thing and get it to feel right for you - i may have been too brash and prescriptivist in my criticism of your work, but the point is that you did something that most people don't do.. you tried! and that's honestly the best thing that could be said! (and that's not me being facetious!)

but my point still stands, try drawing fullbody.... focus on one part of the body, and try to expand outwards from that to complete the body
i usually start from the face, and that gives me context for the head, and then the torso, arms, and legs.. sometimes i start from the legs and work my way up, sometimes i start from the ear.... and so on.
it can be difficult if you wireframe everything and work your way to greater detail... sometimes things won't seem quite right. but once you can start with one part and work your way outwards, it's a sign you're ability to render anatomy is in a good spot and you're getting really good!

keep at it Pounce! i look forwards to what you have in store for us in the future ^-^

Aww. Thank you. My dream is to make vocaloid music to be honest, but I kinda started late. Getting into music as a 20 yearold when a lot of people start as kids is kinda rough, but I still love music even though it sometimes feel completely impossible to deal with at times.
Imma post a last one. This one was more experimental and I just was using my ears and intuition to guide me.

It's also kinda incomplete lol, but I promise I'm gonna improve on making full stuff eventually

these are cute! though i'd say perhaps to (if you can) tone down the velocity of your notes when playing the chords (play the chords a bit softer) as it'll be easier on the ears and be a bit less jarring, as more notes = more volume

... i wish i could post my dabblings into music.. but the multimedia project i'm working on would out me if i post them... i don't want my project to be affiliated with 4chan once it's out there.. you know?

aaaaaaaaaaahhhh.... p a i n

you might like the series of videos by Farya Faraji.. he goes over the differences between Tonal and Modal traditions of music, and how western music has changed over time!
(tl;dr: most cultures stuck to modal traditions with multiple melodies (polyphony) whereas western traditions - specifically non-easter european traditions - went for tonal (chords and chord progressions) in their music)
it's been VERY helpful for me!!!

>>
>>78495492
but you gotta just do it!
maybe not every day, but at least find some goal that inspires you!

i haven't drawn regularly for years and i was honestly surprised when i made the pen+paper drawing of the namefags+you of /biofem/ when i did! i used to draw constantly in my teens, but for several years i only drew via my drawing tablet with Krita maybe 2 times a year and that was all i did... it got so bad that my ability to draw on paper degraded and atrophied as a result.... but my recent goals and desires spurred in me a vision of what i want to do... and the will and determination to draw with sureness (to the point that i (generally) don't need any guides like sketches or skeletons in pencil) had returned and i can draw with confidence!

just try and find a reason to draw that guides you and you will find the determination to get better! i know you can!

remember berries, you can do it!

i barely ever got to draw growing up. i have probably done less than a hundred drawings in my life. im bad at writing and drawing because pencils and pens feel super weird to use, so it feels like im astronomically behind. i have a hard time even drawing a shape i want to draw, like a circle. i mess stuff up all the time. its hard. i know practice is what makes it but i feel like if i draw every day for a year ill still be ten years behind kids who had crayons when they were little.

maybe one day but im basically doing the bare minimum irl right now. eating is hit or miss. adding more things i SHOULD do feels heavy you know? thanks for trying to encourage me though. that was nice of you.

hmmm... try drawing an eye.
just an eye
just fill a paper with eyes.

it doesn't matter if they look "bad" or "good", just draw eyes - they can look realistic or cartoony... just the left eyes of people, not a pair of eyes

can you do that and post it for us? just a page with 10 eyes drawn on it? you can do that!
i'll do it too for us! it can be on paper or ms paint, i'll do mine in ms paint but i want you to draw some eyes, just ten left eyes of people
they don't have to be the same but you can do it berries!

i'll help you out, but you gotta just do it!

i will warn you, drawing eyes without context will look weird, but that's fine, don't erase them, just draw one and move on to the next, try and keep it to 10 or 15 seconds per eye

you can do it berries!
i'm gonna do it too so you're not doing it alone :)

Guys I just learned that Furbies couldn't actually hear what you were saying and you weren't actually teaching them to speak, they just switched from furbish-babble to real language after a set period of time. WTH so all those stories about people teaching their furbies to tell their moms to F off and getting grounded for life were just LIES?!?!?
And looking that up made me remember the creepypasta stories kids used to tell in grade 3 about how Tickle Me Elmo couldn't be killed. I have no idea where my wallet is right at this moment but I can tell you I have a very clear memory of sitting in class and the girl across from me telling me in a Very Serious Voice that no matter what she did to her Tickle Me Elmo, from throwing it down the stairs, trying to dismember it, jumping up and down on it and eventually getting her mom to run over it with her car, it always just said "that tickles!"
I'm pretty sure that girl went on ADHD meds a couple years later

Yeah what you're saying makes sense to me anon, it also would make sense to me that a person with siblings of the opposite sex or who mostly has friends of the opposite sex would probably write differently in casual settings, like while blogging or writing on 4chan. I wonder if another anons can relate to this also: when I'm texting a lot with somebody I definitely tend to match their register (i've always felt it would be awkward to reply to somebody formatting proper paragraphs with semicolons and the whole bit with a wall of text full of XDXDs, and vice versa) to an extent and use some of their expressions.
Or basically along the same lines, I noticed after a while that I and the boy I was with - with whom I texted a lot - had sort of met in the middle with our style and it was cute as hell until the relationship ended and his words were still pouring out of my fingers
Alas

As >>78499323 the key is to never be
a) isolated
b) dependent
so you can walk away from a relationship with confidence your life isn't over. Stats are daunting but don't fear them so much, if you control things on your side you should be fine. At worst with most people you will have an amicable divorce.
>>
>>78499240
It's definitely a possibility.
I've dealt with abuse relationships but have only had one relationship that wasn't an ldr.
The "switch" does happen but it's hardly ever just one day abusive one day not.
They mask, and with any mask, it doesn't stay on straight all the time. It will slip and have to be adjusted.
Most of the time they just bank on you being able to accept a few slightly "off" things, although I hesitate to use the term red flag because I think it's meaningless mumbo jumbo from picky losers.
You need to have firm boundaries. Stick to them until the bitter end. Forgive but do not forget.

this is not a good thing. this is the same sort of retardation that led to us breeding wolves down into fat deformed tard puppies that can't breathe, run, swim, digest, see, and die young. there is no logical argument for finding weakness endearing outside of the fact that it helps people in a violent caveman society not kill each other as much, but it's still not good.

>>78499560
thanks. eyes are not very hard to be honest. drawing things that often appear on a 2D plane in real life is simple. translating three dimensional objects into a 2D plane is much more difficult. the point is i could not make an eye look right on a face or show the emotion i want to convey.

>>78499576
yes, every muscle in my arm was tense while drawing and i had to take like two minute breaks in between or in the middle of each eye. also i havent drawn much with pencils but i draw with my finger in the sand or on the shower humidity a lot so maybe that has helped.

Not a single man would find you less attractive after getting into a serious relationship just because you have developed outside of a quirk that they might have found attractive. Relationships are not disposable toys for men.

Admiration is not a checklist, more like an overton window
If you get better then there's not less of you to love, it just shifts from shaking cutely to be so passionate to overcome a physical obstacle

Thank you <3 and thank you also for ignoring the embarrassing typos in the same message, I suck at phonefagging, I always forget what I'm writing in mid-sentence and accidentally make word salads :D

I don't have too much time to write, I'm on my 15-minute wagecuck break, lel -.- buuuuut I've been trying to convince myself I was more in love with the story (really romantic, or at least I felt so) than with him - and maybe that's why I'm having such a hard time trying to move on emotionally? The truth is that while we were together, it was lovely and good, he was attractive, his companionship was the kind I'd always wanted and I was looking forward to more... Maybe I need to admit to myself that I was in love and cry it out and grieve instead of trying to gaslight myself into thinking I'm okay when I'm clearly not. That would probably be the mature way to deal with my feelings :')

Picrel for you, sweet dreams!

Everything else sounds good. You just need something larger than yourself. Contributing to your household, family, community, workplace, county, goal, etc.

Depression is just your body's natural way of telling you that something about your life probably needs attention. Whether it's not being active enough, eating well, etc. Humans are social creatures. If you aren't being social or working towards something you'll feel like a caged monkey. Keep it up. You're almost there.

I used to work in the non-profit sector actually and it made me suicidal. So I stopped.
After over a decade working in one area, I tried entry level (because I am otherwise unskilled) jobs, and I would come home crying and drinking myself to sleep.
SO! I thought I'd cut out the whole work thing and just focus on what I can change, see if that would bring me somewhere better. If the 'missing ingredient' is work or a family then I guess I am fucked.

I didn't know virgin men were looked on poorly? I figured the only red flag would be if an older guy never had a GF, I'd worry he's a killer or some shit. Like I'll need a good explanation why a 30 year old man has never once had a girlfriend.

if he'd have literally done anything it would have been better than the nothing he instead chose to do, but it seemed more like he was really embarrassed and just wanted to get out of the situation rather than him just being like "yeah whatever" and moving on, he was genuinely uncomfortable with himself

>>78500426

yeah my autism kinda nuked me into the dirt, i can't socialize normally and outside of interest-groups (friends over a shared interest) i don't really have any luck making and keeping friends, they always leave me or worse.
i honestly have no idea how i'm weirdly sexually successful. when i was in my mid teens, i was convinced that my lack of social ability would keep me a femcel forever, and even if something did happen, my anxiety would stop me from going through with it... but it just kind of happened... in art college, a girl and i started hanging out, we really liked eachother, and she and i just kind of started making out and then i lost my V card that night. i was surprised it even happened

There is, but you might not like hearing the reason.
There is the harmless/positive ones where it just makes you more unique. Like having rather unusual taste.
Then the is the more questionable one, where you are seen as an easier catch, because of the issues. This might not even be a conscious thought by the people who find others with issues endearing. Or they are aware of it and think "I have issues, but that person has also issues, so I might be more likely to get with them".

I think someone who loves you wishes to see you get better for your own best interest and seeing you happier, calmer, less stressed. They are able to work at 150% in order to meet your 50%, because they love you and wish to see you become 100%. They'll be patient and understanding, and seek to help you improve and support you in your efforts. Everyone is flawed and has problems, everyone has weaknesses, it's not something that makes you lesser and it's actually essential to evolution to have these flaws in order to keep yourself growing and dynamic.

If the person is getting some weird benefit from being your savior or getting the feeling that they're needed because you're suffering, they aren't emotionally mature or ready for a relationship. The fixer and "protector" mindsets are normally people who lack enough self worth or esteem themselves and need to fill their cup by being a doormat or self-sacrificing part for someone else, and that is not healthy for either party. Or they're manipulative and very insecure and need you to idealize them by being your savior.

But idk, just my two cents as a former "I can fix him" NLOG who grew up. Equal relationships are based and personal growth is cool.

>>78499658
>>78499681
Aw nice moids or people who are sympathetic to the male population, nice. Men aren't all bad, neither are women. It's sad when traumatic events, sour past experiences, and etc make it harder for people to connect and seek equal relationships or a relationship at all. But life isn't all roses huh?

Mhm, me too, though I've kind of given up on being more extraverted. Socializing in groups in general can amplify my self-consciousness about my social skills because I so rarely can come up with anything very good to say and I often worry about how my awkward silence is making other people feel. Lel

I've noticed also though that (some? many?) people seem to appreciate a quiet and kind presence, and when I think about it, I know I generally tend to like quiet people when they have a good vibe about them. Not sure if that helps, nona, but I try to remember when I'm feeling like a lost sheep at some social event that if somebody has to be the life of the party then somebody else has to be the death of it and that might as well be me :D

this site is retarded. instead of adding fat, they adjust your skeletal dimensions to make you look like a freak while making certain they don't give you a pudgy belly. they don't let you adjust your ribcage and bust separately to make sure the tit/torso ratio is "correct". none of the visually reactive elements make any sense unless you are unironically model physique; i am a little chubby atm but they don't agree, they say i'm underweight. insanely stupid. look how the same measurements look at 100/200/300 pounds. it's nuts.

Nah. I played on a NES when I was 6, this was years and years after it came out. The SNES had been out for a few years. I was around 5 when I played it at my cousins house in the USA one evening. My cousin was much older than me and he was out for the evening so my uncle set it up for me to play on for a few hours whilst the adults were in the livingroom doing adult things. I don't think he realized my cousin had left the horror game in. Playing that in the dark by myself was pure nightmare fuel. Completely lost interest in games until I watched William play them when I was a few years older. I think I sort of assumed they were all scary for a while.

Unless you're like 40 there are plenty of kissless virgins around. Believe it or not but the majority of men here are virgins and at least half of those are kissless too.

20 years ago? What kind of fucked up retro bullshit is this. In 2004 nobody was using a rotary phone on the reg. Fucking dial up if you were super poor.

Society in the 80's and even to the mid 90's was so much better. Racism wasn't bullshit. Blacks hadn't been infected with that give me gangsta addititude. You saw blacks, but their pants weren't sagged to their balls walking around like whatcha looking at bitch. Spics were far less. I didn't hear a shitbox blaring mariachi music.

Now you point out the local mall is unsafe because 8 out of the 10 shooting there were niggers, a group of spices, and an incident with two drunk white guys (because craft brewery) all of a sudden I'm a racist.

Oh you're a single mom with mixed nigglets....big fucking surprise you don't want to hear the truth. The left keeps bitching about fascism, while all I want is someone to stand up and tell everyone to get their shit together or be deported.

It's not that different to the femdom fetishism or any of that shit. It's the same another person doing everything for you mindset that you can see on the femdom fetishism or the isekai anime loser harem trope.

Real life doesn't work that way I'm afraid. Not for le lucky nice guy that got a gf, not for le chad, not for le pretty privilege girl society bends over to, not for anyone. Put in whatever work you feel you need to put in, and strive for squeezing the best from whatever relationships you can get (not only romantic once) because you don't become worthy of people, you just try and learn together and try to make sense of life a bit.

This is true. Thing with effort is I assume it's not worth it. Specifically with relationships because I assume people are not interested and only if I was a normie/chad or had something I would attract people. I get what you said and you are right. I can't expect others to do the work. I am just afraid I will be doing all the work and get nothing out of it.

>>78503568
It's where the main character is an anime addicted loser, most likely weak both physically and mentally. All of a sudden, he dies or somehow summoned, and transported to another world with all his memories intact with some overpowered abilities making him some how make all the women swoon for him. Oh, and in that world, polygamy is common so he gets a harem of 10,000 women or more. And they had to put in zero actual work to do all of this. There's almost always zero character development, or the development is so low that it might as well be none at all. Even if there is, it's never for the male but the female harem members and it's almost always somehow developing her intense lust for him.

It's literally loser power fantasy bullshit.

>>78503630
Let me guess, you are exactly what I described?

In the female romance, they usually still have to put in work to obtain their object of affection, even if it meant beating other women pinning after him to gain his attention. Also, I hate those too since it's always depicts the main character as some love-starved twit and that's all she is.

Guy is a loser in real world, a nice guy if you will. Falls into another world, meets the girl and in this escapism setting he doesn't need to do much and all the girls he encounters now want a piece of him in this world.

>>78503656
SAO kind of really brought the trend to the forefront, even though the .//hack series did far before it. It's just stupid how it really exploded and just about every other series for the longest time was generic OP moid isekai bs. If it was here and there, fine, but it literally beat out everything for the longest time. It's literal what you said: ego slop. The perfect example of it being exaggerated to the max is In Another World With My Smartphone. The thing with it though is that the original author wasn't trying to parody it like Konosuba.
>>
>>78503597
Not going to pretend I'm not like you so yeah, I get that. I cope with saying I don't want to bother anyone or want to have my life sorted out first and etc. But in the end you do it for yourself too, to get more out of your short time in this world with what you can.

Nagatoro doesn't exist, and there are very good social related reasons a girl is not going to be that forward in virtually all cases. But life has many twists and turns and you can end up changing for the silliest of reasons, and maybe even knowing someone that has that nagatoro spark or whatever.

Going outside and be yourself keep being unbeatable advice because the shell is the shell, other than comfort it has little else.

Yes I want to gain as much with as little work as possible. Path of least resistance. There are things in life worth the effort but when it comes to attraction I feel like if it isn't there from the beginning you won't generate it ever.

The easy path only bring temporary pleasure and not long term enjoyment. The sense of satisfaction we get for accomplishing hard tasks is what builds character. Incels like you who want everything served to you on a silver platter don't develop any of this and why you are complete losers who enjoy the ego slop. Even attraction needs effort since the couple will go through trial and tribulations where they have major arguments, sometimes even falling out of love before falling back. It involves being able to deal with the aspects of your loved one's personality and quirks that really make you angry and want to be alone. Good couples are able to do that, and they do it through hard work.

You, on the other hand, just want the quick fuck with zero effort on your part. You want us to be able to be there at your beck and call. And you put zero effort into it while looking at things that confirm your confirmation bias. Of course, you would never see things from our perspective while we see yours. Yeah, it takes a lot of courage to go up and ask us out, and deal with the heartbreak of unrequited love when we say "no." Yeah, you may have to deal with our mood swings. However, that's character development: something you will never experience since you are that guy.

In most relationships I see men are superior to women they are with in terms of capability, intelligence and even looks. The guy has to have a car, money, his place, some status/social competence etc. and he is the one organising, planing and entertaining. Women don't know anything and the guy has to teach them and explain everything. Women seem to be fine if they are broke and living with parents but for a guy if you are not close to the ideal dominant provider archetype you have no chance. So obviously men are the ones who have to put in work.

I just went through the typical stuff my parents went through. They had long term boyfriends/girlfriends that they ended up breaking up with after years of dating. I've had abusive boyfriends, and I had boyfriends who were shy and needed a little push to bring him to develop his strengths. It sucks since I still love the guy that I really helped come out of his shell, but he fell out of love with me, but I've come to terms with it, and he's having a happy life single as well.

I've been down to only having so little to my name almost to the point of homelessness eating cheap canned dollar store slop three times a day with no one to help me (all while incels claim I get everything handed to me.) I've had typical layoffs from jobs, but I learned from a early age to put things back in case of emergencies and to not spend too much frivolously no matter how much I make. I've sometimes had to work a full time and a second part time job just to keep myself from being homeless.

It's these scenarios in which I've become stronger in character. Incels like the one I replied to will never get it because they live in their fantasy land.

I live in Podunk, so this is all the norm, and everything is about 20 years behind. There's still people here that have dial-up if that says anything.

What effort did the guy you projected onto me put? If any at all. I am not against smart work and effort in things that pay off.

Man only thing I haven't done is have a MySpace because even then I thought it was a stupid faggy thing to do. I do miss being able to fuck with 3 1/2" floppies to get out of doing some homework but eventually teachers started to catch on...rip

>What effort did the guy you projected onto me put?
They had the courage to, despite all their fears, come up to me and start talking to me, which developed our relationship. One of my boyfriends I had zero attraction to, but gave him the chance because he was a cool guy, though shy. All he did was initiate common conversation. Our romance and relationship budded out of that friendship. I ended up falling in love with him, and it's the guy I still love despite him falling out of love with me.

>someone who is below average
What are you doing to rise up? Like I said: I had zero initial attraction to that boyfriend, and he did the hard work to get me to love him, and not in some crazy stalker like you would be. We were initially friends, and I helped him develop his character. It wasn't due to me helping him though: it's because he had to the courage to go through trials and tribulations himself to develop the strong character he has now. That's the complete opposite of you, and something you will never get.

>You are not that complicated.
Apparently me and other women are when you cannot get the basics of what makes us better people. Instead, you cling onto memes that confirm your biases.

Just fuck off. You are not worth anything.

I'm so sorry. That's just awful. I tried to help alleviate his symptoms but it only worked a bit then he stopped eating foods. Maybe if I suggested pureed foods he might have still been okay but I'm not a fucking vet. I don't know I just wish I could have done more or my family took them to a vet at any damn point.

>>78503833
This is such a gross generalization and retarded internet take I don't want to waste the time to argue it. The only thing I'll say is that what you believe and convince yourself of and dump energy in to, is what you'll get. Good luck

>>78503900
Inspiring. Hopefully life treats you a little better, but you seem to be able to handle it anyway and that's powerful. I only recently was able to break the shell and cage of being in abusive situations and being around people who stifle you, your growth, and your spirit. It's been overwhelming to be graced with the freedom to process and develop self awareness, but sometimes when I meet people like you seem to be, it's like a lighthouse in the overwhelmingness of it. I fully believe the bottom line of any human interaction and connection is compassion for another, but how to actually convey that without overstepping myself or being too critical or too vulnerable is tough. But, I feel I might be getting off track here, to circle back to my point is that how you handled the responses to the incel anon (unfortunate identifier) and myself make me feel inspired by your brevity, subtle strength, and clarity while maintaining understanding.

>>78503942
Congrats!! Let me know if you need help. I got a lot of SUCCulents, a few terrible cacti.

>>78503989
Oh no, what happened? too much water? not enough sun? I'm lucky enough to live where I can have em outside most of the year and they get ample sun that way. Otherwise I wouldn't have a window for them to get enough sun.

Teach me how to crochet. I can only do a long line. I'm too autistic to figure out how to like, make two lines join or make another line, etc.

I fucking love rats. Never owned them, but worked with them a lot. The pet ones are so fucking nice. Even the lab ones are pretty gentle. Short as fuck lifespan though for an incredibly personable pet. They're called little heartbreakers for a reason.

>>78504079
I appreciate your kind words nona.
Don't know if this is any condolence but there's a fair chance the vet may not have had many options, either. Take solace in knowing you did your best to help, and that's all anyone can really do.

>>78504016
I loved to hate on MySpace when it was the big cool thing, but I won't lie I fucking miss it now. Do you think Faceberg > MySpace?

>>78504056
I am sorry if I came across as an asshole. It's not like I don't have respect for people who went through tough situations and experiences. I know there are girls who don't have it easy and I truly feel compassion for their suffering. I still think even with all the courage in the world my physical flaws couldn't redeem me.
>he was a cool guy, though shy
You were never sexually attracted to him? Only romantically?
>>
>>78504174
We had options weeks ago I know that for sure. Probably fluid IV and a recommendation for softer foods maybe a medication for a diuretic. I know that for sure. But instead of him being taken I had to treat him with over the counter crap which did work for awhile. But he needed proper medical care. Now he's leaving us I just wanted him to pass peacefully not suffer.
>>
Well he passed. He's gone. He lived so long. I'll miss him. He was a good cat. I just dammit. At least I was there I was there that's all I could do.
>>
>>78504404

>>78504434
Just being there for him to the end to know he wasn't alone is comforting for him. He knows you loved him and it helped him.
>>
The fact that scrotes can be this insensitive just proves how worthless and pathetic they are.
>>
>>78504447
I hope I feel like he didn't even notice me but I pet him through his dying breath.
>>
>>78504404
how old was he? At least you made his long life a good one
>>
>>78504524
That's all you can do. Petting him letting him know you were there brings them a lot more comfort than what you think.
>>
>>78504543
He was 26 really old for a cat. I wasn't always in his life and I was thinking he was waiting for his owner who will never get to see him now. I took a few clippings of his fur.
>>78504545
I hope so. I hate this. I hate feeling so damn useless.
>>
>>78504559
You were not useless, nona. You just being there to comfort him and pet him during his last moments meant a lot to him.
>>
>>78504559
aw. Well all things considered that's really good for a cat. Hope he's resting easy
>>
>>78504568
I told him he could go if he needs to. I guess he needed to. I can't imagine how much he was suffering. I just hope he's okay now. But another passing. I am just feeling more and more alone. It hurts what hurts more is it does hurt as much as my first cat passing. I didn't even get to say good bye or comfort him. At least I was there for this little guy.

>>78504570
It is but I just know he had a bit more time if we did something. It socks how calous people can be. Spend money on shit that doesn't matter but old pet can't even go to see a vet. But we will do that for people. Will gladly put pets down but not humans. It's just so cruel.

Sometimes that is what is needed. My granddad clinged to life because he was afraid to go because of my grandmom despite how much he was suffering. Once she told him it was okay that she would be all right, he finally went within minutes. It's what he needed.

It always hurts with a loved one passing away, that includes our furry ones as they're family as well. Quit saying you couldn't comfort him: I can promise you that he was comforted with you being there for him and giving him attention. I can promise you that he really appreciated it more than anything else.
>>
>>78504618
It hurts I hate it.
>>78504645
Thank you. It doesn't hurt so bad. At least I was there I got to say goodbye. It's something. I didn't get that with my first cat. But him at least he got a long full life. I just hate that I feel so worthless like it being punished.
>>
>>78504675
It's okay, nona. *hugs*

It's okay to grieve for him throughout your life. Just keep remembering the good times with him and how you were able to be with him at the end of his life to comfort him every time you think of him. Just remember the fun he had chasing the toy on a string or him having a case of the zoomies, or the times he comforted you when he sensed you were having a hard time. Kitties are like that like with my guy when he passed away two years ago. Go ahead and grieve all that you need and want to. He was family and had a major impact on your life.
>>
>>78504715
Thank you. I wish I had more of those younger years of his life with me. But he was my brother's. I left after 5 years with him. Then he moved in with us at his old age. I got to see him from time to time but I didn't get a whole lot with him. But the times I did he was a damn cool cat. Big ham for pets and attention. Loved beef Jerry. I'll miss him. His owner will never get to see him again. Fucking bastard is in prison. At least I was here. I tried. I did. Dammit I don't want him to be gone.

every so often i end up in an r9k thread of some sad robot and i give him advice and try to comfort him, and sometimes he asks if i'm a girl, and i say yes, and he asks for my discord, and i explain i dont use it, and he says he wants to talk to me more, i say i dont do online dating or anything like that so we would just be boring pen pals over email, he says thats fine he just wants to talk, and i give him my email. then he gets bored of me after a bit. sometimes weeks, sometimes months, but never more than six months. i always am the one to send the last email. i ask them about their lives and i talk about mine and i try to be nice and i apologize when i realize i was moody. nobody ever wants to talk with me long term though. even though they start off literally begging even though i am nothing special at all. i don't get it, it makes me sad. it feels like the idea of my womanhood just wears off eventually and they realize i am just a normal sad and boring and lonely person like everyone else, and they hold on a bit after that because they try to convince themselves they care about me on some tiny platonic level, but they can't lie to themselves any longer and eventually accept that i was a piece of novel entertainment hijacking their attraction to the opposite sex, and once the mystique wore away, i was no longer fun, and they leave.

shit scares me. i feel like this is going to happen with my first boyfriend if i ever get one too. i dont want to be discarded.

This is why lasting friendships tend to happen on things you actually can share time with like games and the like.
Here, overall (men or women) the best I have got was either pet pictures or meme pictures or gelbooru pictures. That stuff burns out VERY fast. Also, it's very likely that things end in a sort of loop (how are you? what you doing? anything new?) where progress just isn't seen so one of the parties ends up dropping it. This doesn't mean they are no longer attracted or you were discarded or once you made clear your intentions they stopped bothering, it simply means they feel neither of you are getting your bang for your buck in terms of time. And that's okay, you can't be friends with everyone as much as you would like to, there are many reasons why as much effort you put things would just wither, and on text chat, the minimum level of communication you can get, it's just even harder

Honestly? I don't see him (routerfag) as a person. That's not trying to make a racist joke or some sort of ethical criticism, I just have a hard time thinking of him as a living human being. Maybe it's just a subconscious cope, trying to live in a world where mouth breathers like that don't exist. I think of him more like a poorly programmed aggressive ai bot
nice mini Tomo on the chest plate very epic. I gotta go practice running. Jump roping has been distracting me and I need to be able to keep up with running club if I decide to go. But afterwards I will consider drawing some

Only a few days, I need to stop double bouncing. I got to around 50 without tripping, but I double bounced a lot. When I was in elementary school, my gym coach had a month-long course about jump rope. Even though that was over a decade ago, I think it helps/makes it easier to learn again. I enjoy not going in the sun as well, another benefit of the jump rope

Not having easy access to internet brain rot. I spend a lot more time on computers now. Analog is sometimes easier to use. You just bought media that you owned forever no "subscriptions"
>what's your favourite technology from 20+ years ago?
Old school runescape, DVDs
>how do you feel about what's happened over the past 20 years to get to where we're at now, a Cyberpunk dystopia without the cool shit?
This is probably the best it has ever been for me. I found communities online and can learn so much more in an easier way. Back in the day, if you wanted to language learn or learn a math principle you were fucked if the library didn't have it.

oh no, its fine. i just got a little bored and there hasnt been any gifts (other than the ones i gave) since thread 100, so its really not a big issue. theres just a lot of drama that comes with throne and floods up the threads.

It's my comfort show desu. It is easily one of my favorite chinese cartoons so I'm pretty biased but I do genuinely think more people should give it a chance. People like to pretend its all nonsense and that their isn't a plot but there's a lot more to it than most people give it granted. It's also a pretty easy to watch show, it is only 12 episodes and really you should know if you'd like it after one episode.

the thing about that is, you really are at mercy of the platform you are using's algorithm, unless you shill your drawings every waking minute (which i dont think i have the courage to do) the chances of your art being "shared around naturally" are slim.

it is passive, but isnt stable and can get stressful i feel like. i dont know, i have to think it over a little more.

>>78509373
i see! i have a few comfort shows and im like this too, so i'll take your word for it.

>>78509411
HIIIIIIII nonAI! how've you been? any updates on c.ai's meta?

>>78509417
eheh, character development.. yeah..
ehehe..

>complete picrel
Five points. Is it a bad thing?
>what's your favourite aspect of society from 20+ years ago?
Human connection, also things used to be more laid back, people liked to put an effort, no porn addiction. Things were easier, you didn't need to overwork yourself
>what's your favourite technology from 20+ years ago?
CDs and DVDs, walkmans, Windows 95, cassete tapes
>how do you feel about what's happened over the past 20 years to get to where we're at now, a Cyberpunk dystopia without the cool shit?
Corporations taking over the internet, social media, and monetization, the death of Club Penguin. I wish I could go back to 2008

I have long given up on trying to track down op1. I mean long as in like 3 months ago. The only person I was actively looking for was masc because I genuinely dislike him. Wasn't even me who looked up OP1's trip on every board because at that point I didn't even care. Feel free to believe whatever you prefer.
