@pluralistic but not Bandcamp?
Heya @GeekAndDad how are you? I’ve been thinking about you. Hope ur well. Hugs.

Thanks to @andybaio over on Bluesky, original IUMA team member @beach saw my Cybercultural post about IUMA 1994 today, and he sent a bunch of rare 1994 screenshots! So I have updated my post accordingly: https://cybercultural.com/p/iuma-1994/

Thanks David, what a treasure those '94 images are. #InternetHistory

Internet Underground Music Archive in 1994

By early 1994, the Internet Underground Music Archive (IUMA) had migrated from Usenet and Gopher to the emerging internet platform, the World Wide Web. It was one of the first multimedia websites.

Hey tech workers! Call in sick tomorrow 1/30. Grow a spine.
@pluralistic is Enshitification available on Bandcamp for download? I can’t find it. Otherwise what is the best way to get the audio book?

@zoomar are they lizard people?
I felt nervous about attending #xoxofest this year. Like every year I’ve attended. I’m not great with crowds or conversation, & I never feel like I belong or fit in. I felt lonely at times. But as the day went on yesterday & listening to all the inspiring talks & stories, I felt a little more comfortable. Then at the party, I finally relaxed & had some incredible conversations and laughs. Thanks to everyone I hung out with for bringing me in and allowing me to express myself & tell my story.
@cabel I think my heartbeat shot up during the big reveal. Thank you for doing that! BTW if you need any ebay detective work done, I might be able to help
@zoomar life is suffering.
