>>522 sorry you have to go through that, hope the con was mostly enjoyable

Geez, looking back on my Amazon purchases on computer parts and seeing the 400-500% price increase is insane
And then the steam deck has a 200-300 increase.

>>524 lmao well thats just the tech bubble being a bubble

>>524 (Boop)
Hmm. That makes me wonder about schools that give students laptops. Some of those students DESTROY those things. I've seen some where it was a miracle that the laptop still functioned. I can't imagine schools are having an easy time supplying laptops with the insane price increases, especially in low income areas.
Maybe we'll start seeing schools shift back to paper and textbooks? Who knows.

>>258 (mayomayo) But the past wasn't good though. Like seriously think about it. When we're children we have 0 autonomy, I defs would not ever want to go back to that. And the world thirty, forty, fifty, etc years ago was just as fucked up as it is now. People were racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, there were wars, diseases, and natural disasters occurring everywhere. So why bother coming up with a fantasy that the past was super great? It's never been great, and it sure as heck was never comforting. At least when thinking about the future you can at least hope that things will be better.

If it was my last day on earth I'd go for a walk tbh. Spend some time thinking about nothing in particular.

Have you ever thought about what your next life is going to be like (with the multiverse open for exploring)?

>>258 if my family or friends are near me, I’d like to just hang around with them. Or even just group up with strangers.

>>259 I guess it’s why rose tinted glasses goes along with nostalgia. It’s like people had a good memory in the past and that’s good enough for them to just hyper focus on what a good feeling felt like while ignoring all the other bad or mundane stuff. I wonder what’s Buddha doing in enlightenment

Have you ever thought what future generations will think of how we handled microplastics? Would it be a nothing burger or like how we view people in the 1900’s adding uranium to everything

“Those government bastards may tell you that your existence is a crime but no matter how dangerous you may be just being alive, just being who you are, is never wrong” A silly little anime about pirates is something that can be so personal actually

Not as good as >>152, or the red version of that one that must be in an RTT somewhere or something (because I have solid red advertisement downloaded, it's just not in this thread,) but still.

>>157 >>152 Don't know why I didn't repost or link to this here at the time, but it is here, now.

There are no pictures of me. There never have been! ^_^

Yea I was in middle school too. By now I'm married. It's cool that Dollars BBS is still alive!
Back then I even got a black Sony Ericsson slider phone that was as close as it gets to looking like Kida's phone haha. Complete with phe bear plush. Sad that it broke. Slider phones gotta make a comeback man

I know I spread this place around ages ago. I wonder how many people still remember.
