i can’t wait to make a new geocities site

I’ll be handing out slash fic under the “special secret table” at cons. Subscribe to my fanzine.

Guys, I have a Yahoo mailing list that’s limited to thirty people, but we have to be careful, so make sure you always put disclaimers on each email about none of this is yours and TPTB shouldn’t sue you.

YES, you have to put that on EVERY email, do you want to get shut down?!?

Make sure to email your age statement to one of the listmods!

Guys, we need to keep the webring to a certain standard, so PLEASE no more sites with frames or pages with background midis. Not everyone’s browser can handle it.

Also, this webring has citrus, so be warned!!!!

I’ll be purging sites that don’t adhere to this request.

When you post to the newsgroup, remember to put a line break every 72 characters so that it’s readable!  

I’ve received a cease and desist letter from Anne Rice.

My friend let me have a subdomain on her website to host my fic — want me to ask if she’s got enough room left to make one for you?

Remember to snip email chains,and just quote what you’re responding to! Some people pay by the kilobyte!

All your base are belong to us!

I have to get offline - my spouse needs to use the phone.

PLS sign the site guestbook!!!1! Even if you’ve signed it before, I wanna know if you guys like the new banners I made in paint shop pro (^_^;)

Jfc the way I understood every single reference, lmao.

Some of you really would not have survived the late 90s/early 00s slowburn het couples and it shows.

In case y'all needed the full picture here, here’s a list of het couples over the years and how many episodes/seasons it took them to get to get together.

The best thing about this list is that’s it’s not how long it took them together. It’s how long it took them to kiss. Some went seasons longer not acknowledging or dismissing that kiss before they actually got together.

I swear from now on whenever someone asks me when I was born, my response will be “in the late 1900s”

FROM THE STUDIO THAT BROUGHT YOU—

The 2000s Made Me Gay, Grace Perry

Coming from a reference group where everyone’s first queer movie was either Rocky Horror or Brokeback Mountain, it’s fascinating to talk (in person!) to gay teenagers who grew up with Korra and Stephen Universe and She-Ra. 

The sheer culture clash of trying to explain that Brokeback Mountain was received as and treated as a punchline. Two men fall in love and one gets murdered for it. Considering the time this movie was made, that isn’t a spoiler: that’s an inevitability.

And all the popular culture at the time would only reference it to laugh at it.

youtube to mp3 websites have done more for mankind than any government

i dont think you get it. 1980 was twenty years ago. 1990 was 10 years ago. 2000 was 10 years ago. 2016 was two years ago. 2018 was also two years ago. 2017 was last year. 2014 was four years ago. do you understand me now?????

being 25 is like: im dying. im living my best life. im a failure. my life hasnt started. everything interesting has already happened to me. im achieving my dreams. im cutting my hair with kitchen scissors. im starting a skincare routine. im a corporate professional. im a sellout. im out of groceries. i have too many groceries. i am never going to be successful. i am going to win a hugo award before im 30. im crazy. im boring. i need to finish this essay. i need to finish this story. i need to start a newsletter. i need to start tweeting more. i need to stop tweeting. i need to ghost all my friends. i need to tell my friends i love them. i need to find a new apartment. i need to take out the trash. i am the trash that needs to be taken out. 

'girl power' content before everyone got obsessed with feminism and wokeness was soooo much more fun. powerpuff girls, Hannah Montana, my life as a teenage robot, that's so raven, Kim possible, Winx club, and the like were really really good shows with strong female leads that were really good because it was just girls doing fun shit. now everything has to be subversive and gritty and #girlboss and we get shit like Captain Marvel that's just propaganda with a bra on it or Jessica jones or the shitty ass Winx club reboot that's more concerned with faux diversity than it is with the actual content of the show

if i were given a choice between the straight simple misogyny of 90s movies versus the girbossgirlpowerfeministwarcriminal media industrial complex of the last however many years i’d pick door number one so fast

“The “generation gap” is an important social tool for any repressive society. If the younger members of a community view the older members as contemptible or suspect or excess, they will never be able to join hands and examine the living memories of the community, nor ask the all important question, “Why?” This gives rise to a historical amnesia that keeps us working to invent the wheel every time we have to go to the store for bread.

We find ourselves having to repeat and relearn the same old lessons over and over that our mothers did because we do not pass on what we have learned, or because we are unable to listen. For instance, how many times has this all been said before? For another, who would have believed that once again our daughters are allowing their bodies to be hampered and purgatorial by girdles and high heels and hobble skirts?”

Anyone?

i love not being a teenager but also sometimes people on the internet just say words and i have to look them up on urban dictionary like i’m 90
