I went looking for some old silly thing I made through my DW and I'm taken back by how much personality my journal had. I went engaging in whacky fandom memes and had fun with my favorite characters. And then there's Twitter, a corporate wasteland.

I find the entry my image was at, only to find it's broken because I posted it on Tinypic, a site that no longer exists.

We really took Internet 1.0 for granted, didn't we? We used to actually create shit. But social media is formatted to turn you into a talking head. Now all we do is fight over the most asinine shit like whether or not it is "moral" to like this show or if shipping this pairing means you're secretly a colonialist and it's so fucking pointless.

But nobody has stepped forward with a solution, because we're all drained and living in the most boring dystopia ever. Capitalism is the ultimate parasite.

God, I just wish I had more energy.

agreed, I could rant on about it all day, but it just makes me feel worse. All I can do is keep the flame alive, lead by example and try my best to live as I've always lived. I've been using twitch as a platform to do this and actually have an audience.
