i just can't convey the frustration and sorrow that it's been to grow up at first without the internet and then watching it bloom into this useful, fun, connecting force you sometimes spent time on, only for it to degrade into this constant oppressive waste of time and energy where people are constantly pumping out algorithmically designed content for max algorithmic appeal and even the most simple search generates either no results or an infinite abyss of ai generated slop none of which is usable or correct. we briefly had a library of alexandria and then fed it into a paper shredder so advertisers could sell a random mash of pulp back to us at a premium.
#it's so weird having lived it as well#i remember the internet as a child and teenager#i remember no adverts on youtube or social media#that was the beginning of the end if you ask me#as usual capitalism ruins a good thing

not to panhandle for reblogs but this poll won't work unless someone reblogs it 🥺🥺🥺
#separate clothes for all three#it's all about levels of germs babes#outdoor clothes are changed the minute i get home#comfy clothes for inside#clean comfy clothes for bed

Photo

Long before the introduction of color film, a Russian chemist and photographer named Sergey Prokudin-Gorsky used an innovative technique. He took three individual black and white photos, each through a colored filter (red, green, and blue), to create fully colored, high-quality pictures. The photo of this woman, taken by him, is around 107 years old!

It was Charles Bingley/Colonel Fitzwilliam if you were wondering
When you read a throwaway scene in a book/fanfic that sparks a ship so rare there are no fics of it on AO3

if you can and want to, go to college when you’re 30. move out at 40. learn to drive at 50. life is short but it is also so long. it’s not too late to do new things.

"No, Temeraire, you cannot!" Laurence said, appalled. "I am perfectly sure I can," Temeraire disagreed. [...] "You must not," Laurence amended hastily.

@staff let me read people's full tags, why did you take away the read more bit. I want to read other people's thoughts. I want to re-read my own thoughts without having to go to my blog
