(There were reasons for that, I can see their point, but it’s not great when your YouTube channel gets nuked for being forced to link to it)
Btw I think I forgot to mention that the big draw with MySpace was connecting with strangers, basically
And obviously twitter was like that but it was more about famous people
The basic personal life connections needs a proper medium
Google plus was maybe that but even they horribly mishandled it
I don’t hate “social media”.
But there’s got to be a way to connect people you know in real life (past and present) in a semi privacy respecting way while allowing a chronological stream of posts

It took me a while to understand red/blue pill (despite having seen the matrix) and then barely gotten to grips with white/black pill, and now I’m just lost
You’re really sticking your neck out with a controversial comment like that

3 months and 14 days to fuck up and get away with it
I’m sorry but pickles are rarely good on anything
The like one exception is burgers
Synchronized conversation sucks
More email
I’m so jealous of people who have good screen names
I don’t think I’ve had a single one I like in decades of internet use
Also WhatsApp presents a compelling case for antitrust
I don’t know if we absolutely need decentralized everything but the fact remains as of 2025 the biggest platform on the internet has a wildly non chronological feed with a ceo known to come up with gems like “if you want info on people just ask, they trust me, dumb fucks”
It’s a bit of a problem
Restaurant dish descriptions be like “for two”
Nah fam
Me ‘n my imaginary friend
Fun fact, he was friends (or at least acquaintances) with Einstein
