I dunno about anyone else but you can slide into my DMs with that rant since i ain’t getting visited by the fediverse chic anyways

He was “penned in” on PQ and couldn’t really let the creative juices flourish, but kept pushing the boundries regardless

Sorry this took so long to respond back!

Lotta reasons and responses here i plan on using for when i finally make my “fuck you all i quit” post this weekend.

I remember him from his days writing for PlanetQuake. You could tell even then he was fenced in and trying to eat hay from the other side.

I never followed him to Something Awful, i grew up, i guess? But it irrevocably influenced the Internet as a whole.

Sucks that he turned out to be a shitbag

So… dumb terminal are back in?

Hot damn boys, I’ll see ya on the RS-232 relays!

“Hello, hookworms. Get in my feet.”

Right?

Even after reading Snow Crash, I wanted an RJ-45 port so I could get internet straight to my brain…right up till I had my first IV stuck in me. Realized I didn’t like foreign objects in me at all lol

Typical old, rich white guy thing to do. cosplay a biker for badass lookin’ points with… somebody, I guess.

Bruce Rauner did it too and pretty much nailed poseur look

thank you for setting this up. Also, first fediverse post!

Im gonna miss reddit, but i really miss the (relative) locality of the old BBS days, and later, regional blog networks.

The internet feels less like a utility lately and i didnt realize how much i missed that
