  • I remember back before I got my own PC. My brother had Windows 98, installed Morpheus (similar to Kazaa).

    I looked for a game, I think it was some console game. “Wow, I didn’t even know this was on PC! Wow, it’s only 15MB, how did they get the game so small?? Computers are cool!”
    Every time I ran it, the screen would go all funky with every click and after a while return to normal.

    On a separate occasion I deleted System32 files (whichever ones it let me at the time), to free up space.

    It’s quite funny that a lot of people ask me for various advice, fixing devices, PCs, etc. just a friendly reminder to myself that everyone starts somewhere. Boy I messed up so many PCs when I was much younger.



  • I have been getting more stoned in the past few days, in the hopes to provide more absolutely terrible jokes, however I went too far and binged a bunch of Mr. Rogers videos on YouTube with dabs.

    Have you guys seen this man?! Someone this kind actually existed! Like man. Everyone needs to see Mr. Rogers stuff I think, it’s like, proper positive and stuff.




  • I remember when Skype first came out, when I was a teenager. I called a random guy in Japan; he was learning English, I wanted to learn Japanese (as is tradition for teenage anime fans). It was a very kind series of calls, and we talked a bit about Japanese culture too. He taught me, rather patiently, how to pronounce certain basic words properly.
    It’s a shame the service was treated like it has been. There was great potential in connecting people.

    Wherever you are, random Japanese dude I forgot the name of, konbanwa!!




  • You gotta turn that around! Give them reasons to ignore you!

    I personally am keen to ramble on about potatoes, although to be fair I don’t think this is accurate as it’s difficult to talk too much about potato. I mean, potatoes are pretty much a worldwide thing, but do we really know where they come from? It’s crazy when you think about the sheer prevalence of potato. But then again it’s difficult to find opposition to the consumption of potato, yet isn’t it strange how there’s no potato religion? Or maybe there is or was. Imagine if we recorded the History of the potato. Imagine just how far back our adoration for potato goes! I wonder what neanderthals did with potatoes…

    I realised I did too much LSD when I had ‘boring trips’.

    They were the most bizarre. I felt in my mind that I already got the answers I needed, to better myself, and so for several hours I had visuals whilst feeling otherwise sober. Just waiting for it to pass. Occasionally looking at my hand to see if I’m still tripping.
    Everything tested properly and obtained from sources I won’t name.

    I felt the same on a few trips since. Although it is a positive to feel that way. It’s reassuring that I’m on the right path, moving by my own accord, yet I do wish psychedelics were fun again. Maybe when I’m much older, as I have zero intention of doing them.

    30+ trips is enough though, I reckon.
