Remember when we used to get a brief interlude between the last bad thing and the next bad thing
@donni I'd like to timewarp back to the 90s and just, stay there.

@Lydie @donni

Had me own bow-wow in the basement and a Pentium I. *And* the cold war seemed finally over and the music was great. 😭

Actually mainstream music was just as shitty as ever, miss the doom and stonerbands of those days though.

@verymetalsite @donni I was in my teens. While I was deeply depressed and nearly didn't make it, it was also the greatest time before enshittification, and now, I'd appreciate it immensely.

@Lydie @donni

Trying quite desperately to preserve what's good from those times.

Ren & Stimpy complete series, a man's gotta have priorities.

Was not happy back then either, everyone was happy because the cold war seemed over but i did not buy it, still was in a cold war fatalistic mood.

Being right about that in retrospect was not very satisfying either, i'd like to think i'm not that easily fooled ...

BUT NOT ON THIS SCALE !!

@verymetalsite @donni

Why I love the 90s: technology was fun. And since it was pretty much only nerds using it, it didn't suck yet. Letting the masses onto the Internet ruined it.

The music. I'll just say 70s-90s were peak music. And peak humanity perhaps.

Most software was a one-time fee. To hell with SaaS. And subscriptions in general. Not many of those in the 90s!

"Letting the masses onto the Internet ruined it."

So true.
