Saying we should all go back to physical media I think misses the point. I actually *like* buying games and movies digitally for a bunch of reasons. What we need is better consumer protections so the things we do buy digitally are actually owned and companies cant delete/revoke access!

My dad played a lot of the Beatles, but other than that not a big classic rock guy. Mostly classical, jazz, big band, and standards, Tony Bennet, Diana Krall, etc My mom was big into 90s country (tbf, it was the 90s) and singer/songwriter/folk. Lots of Carly Simon/Carole King/James Taylor, etc.

what's the music your parents played all the time when you were a kid? for me, it's a dead heat between Neil Diamond and Linda Ronstadt

This reminds of when I was in first grade and for show & tell I brought in my favorite book, The Sorcerer's Apprentice. Fully illustrated children's book, mind you. My teacher scolded me, saying I should have brought in something simpler, bc my classmates might not know all the words.

"Expecting me to read books and look up words is discriminatory" is for sure a viewpoint that crops up online, and it's very important to make fun of it every time

Takeout/delivery and cooking your own food are both wrong. Instead you should be losing weight at a supernatural rate due to the “Thinner” curse after accidentally running over an elderly woman with your car.

I love Ken Jennings so much, I fear

They’re telling me a great empire will be destroyed if I attack Persia. Even the oracles who don’t like me very much, very nasty, they all said to me, “Sir, it’s one of the great empires, and it’ll be destroyed. And all because you attacked Persia.” That’s what they’re telling me.

As someone who went on the Internet for the first time in the early 90’s, I fucking loved the Internet. It has given so many things in life, and afforded me so many incredible experiences. And to see it, and technology in general where they are today is kinda soul crushing.

Gonna kick back and spend the afternoon solving a hard-boiled period mystery on the holodeck. Sure there’s an ion storm going on, but it’s probably fine. I won’t be trapped in there or anything.

Reminder if you use Firefox and haven't done this yet to disable their A/I chatbot feature (not just removing it from your sidebar): ➡ go to about:config (open a new tab and type it into the address bar) ➡ locate "browser .ml .chat .enabled" (or just search "chat") ➡ toggle to "false"

These are actually so interesting and cool, like, compositionally. The lighting, the crazy Dutch angles, just the general framing, I'm kind of obsessed.

Today I discovered that people have been uploading old stock photo CD-ROMs to the Internet Archive and now I'm obsessed with the mid-'90s business-core aesthetic.

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)
