AGORA ROAD i found this cool forum site called agora road's macintosh cafe (forum.agoraroad.com) and its got a community of vaporwave listeners and niche internet enthusiasts like myself. small warning that it's fairly wild-west content-wise. dont say i didnt warn you. after diving a bit inside, there's a lot of nooks and crannies that one can sink their teeth into. highkey a huge throwback to th... » Continue Reading

disclaimer: anything below actually has little to do w how socializing on the internet works. im still very conscious that behind every profile is an actual person who can be held accountable (assuming the dead internet theory hasn't reached completion yet) if you don't bother w politics, skip (or not, your choice, your responsibility) --- TLDR: people who shame activists into obscurity fucking su... » Continue Reading

yknow what really trips me up? i vividly remember that a HUGE portion of my life was off social media (or at least not superglued to it) additionally, i remember that my internet habits were VASTLY different that how i've gone about it in recent years like if we're going to be specific, i remember when: my friends and i would draw together at the cafeteria (regardless if having a phone during scho... » Continue Reading
context starting off my first 2026 entry with a new mp3 player in one hand, and a bunch of disjointed thoughts about this decision on the other! i bought myself a fiio snowsky echo mini from an online reseller. i admit that i buy into aesthetics quick (as an artist, it's just in my nature to do so), but i went into this with strong intentions: less doomscrolling, more balanced phone use less relia... » Continue Reading
