You’ll have to let me know what you think. Maybe we can watch it together this weekend

Moonlits and I started watching the first season of Frieren together the other night. Maybe we’ll watch another episode or two tonight

I wanted to but my parents didn’t think users would actually abide by BBS operating hours in the evening and overnight (when I was allowed to tie up the phone line). By the time we had a second phone line, the internet had already consumed my life lol

These dial-up BBSs thrived in the context of local communities. I think there’s an increasing desire and justification for some marginalized communities to socialize and thrive off of the internet. I see the desire for that with projects like Meshtastic. I wonder if we could learn something here.

Of course, much of the infrastructure that supported BBSs is being eliminated on our time. The building I live in didn’t even bother to run POTS phone lines to the apartments, and phone systems are being replaced wholesale by VOIP in rural areas.

I wonder if we should look at a model like this again with the rise of dead internet theory, corporate-influenced AI, and nation state-controlled bots making the internet town square difficult to use in an authentic way.

Free use whimsy and affirmations!

Thank you :) I’m looking forward to hanging out around here again

And at the end? We’re going to have prizes, but they will be chew toys for the dogs. The people get nothing, except pets and licks, of course.

The chew toys will be different colors, but only in the range the dogs can’t differentiate, so they all just get a new toy.

This is how it will be.

I’m going to start a new kind of agility for puppers. Anyone can bring their dog, none of this purebred stuff. We will adapt the course by size of dog, and there will be different groups based on age and ability.

It would be nice to have a caseload of mostly stable, lower-acuity clients. Clients I can help blossom and thrive rather than worry with them about their next meal or whether they will be alive tomorrow.

Maybe it’s time for me to blossom and thrive in a different professional direction too.

Just one?

don’t threaten me with a good time!

I imagine them placed neatly in aisles with their puppy ears on, trance music playing overhead, wandering without a purpose.

Won’t anyone think of the bimbo puppygirls?!?
