promised land non-dream diary entry
Nov. 15th, 2022 12:28 am(I was very tickled by my folder of old LJ icons that I found so I was like hehehe I'm gonna use these things but they are like 80% jokey and I should change them. Maybe? idk who cares)
Anyway it's fun to watch the internet melt down a little. as bad as I feel for like, artists and stuff who use twitts to make a living, I also think like... humanity probably doesn't need a social media like this. governments use a private platform to announce policies on the same site lonely people catalog the food they ate that day. When the internet was more fractured, I think people had healthier brains, and maybe it's time to step back to that again until something much, much better than what we have can be used. I've seen a lot of people say how sad this idea is (and while I agree everyone flocking to discord is TOO fractured, mostly because discord is a terrible place to have conversations), but I had like, so, so many friends in tiny like, roleplay groups who found each other through common interest and disposition, and it was good. You had to actually know and accept people who were slightly different than you.
Aside from that I went a little movie crazy last month and wanted to highlight a few that I thought ruled. Lots of horror because spooky szn!!!
