Re: Host it yourself


Curious, @meri -- what pushed you over the edge with streaming? Nothing frustrated me but I sort of felt like I was developing a really weird relationship with music where it was pure aesthetic commodity.

losing access to things i liked due to the platform having some kind of licensing problem ...

Re: Japan travelogue thread

this is a nice read. traveling with you seems nice. you seem really calm and contemplative. i get like that when i travel alone, but when when i'm with others i usually can't even recall the small details. i wonder why that is?

are you shooting with a camera? the focal length tells me such. do you ...

runescape (now old school runescape) was something i grew up on. getting lured into the wildy, leveling up, not knowing anything about the game and it feeling like an endless adventure. it helped that there wasn't such a thing as a wiki. the world felt bigger then. i later ended spending a lot of ...

seeing boris live was incredible. they had the shape in my mind as an mp3 on my hard drive. i dont even who the individual members were at all. but i liked listening to them. in some way, they felt locked in time, in the 90s. that's where a band like that belongs. learning that they still played ...

morning is kind. everything has a softness to it. the light is warm, and newly sprouted leaves and flowers dance from my window. the complex simulation outside seems effortless. there's so much happening at once. i want to lie down and soak it in.
