  • Life update:
    I think I finally escaped the internet, I have not been using the internet for entertainment for the past month or so, hopefully I will never come back here again.

    Two weeks after leaving the internet I bought gym equipment to workout at home because I have a lot more free time now, funny enough I also got myself a femboy and a trans-boy femboy boyfriend recently.
    The three-way relationship only lasted three days and now I only have one boyfriend.

    I liked my time in this place so I think it's important to note that I did not die, an hero, or otherwise left agoraroad specifically, I just finally escaped the internet, and this has honestly made me very happy, I cannot yet explain the fulfillment of having real-world experiences over simulated ones.

    I may sometimes write for my blog and or maybe, maybe update my website, but I do not expect to use the computer or phone for entertainment for at least the following months.

    This is hopefully my last update ever to this website, it has been a pleasure to know you all, especially @Punp @big_ping07 @Some_porcupine @no_chill (rip) and whoever else I forgot to mention, you were all very interesting characters and nice people, I wish you well in your life.

    With all that say, Goodbye fellas, take care of you, be a smart fella not a fart smella, don't be silly wrap your willy, baaaiiiiiiiiii

    -With luv, Noxy <3
    I've come to realize that I have never met a 'normie' in real life before, even the most normal guys and gals I've met have a something that makes them weird in some way. Never have I met a person that was 'normal' in this life.

    I tweaked her a bit, I think it's done.
    Here's the industrial revolution and it's consequences:
    Okay, so basically, the whole vibin with machines era , aka the Industrial Revolution, was kinda a major oof for peeps everywhere. Yeah, sure, it bumped up how long we get to stick around on Earth if we're from the bougie parts of the planet ✨, but tbh it threw a lot into chaos mode. Life's got less vibe now, everyone's feeling some type of way with the disrespect it's dragging us through, plus it's tossing Mother Nature in the trash . And, no cap, the tech glow-up we're on ain't slowing down, which is just gonna pile up more mess. Human dignity's on thin ice , our planet's taking major Ls, and even though it's already stirring the pot with mental and physical struggles , it looks like things could lowkey get even bumpier, even for the trendsetters living in their fancy bubble. So yeah, the grind for more gadgets and gizmos might just backfire big time.

    So, like, this whole deal with our tech-heavy life is kinda hanging by a thread, could go boom or bust, ya know? If it keeps chugging along, there's like a teeny tiny chance it might make things less ouchie, both in our brains and outside. But, big yikes, because getting there would mean a hecka long time of just straight-up suffering . And the trade-off? We all just become part of the machinery, like we're just parts in a giant blender , not to mention all the other critters out there getting the same deal. Plus, if this whole setup sticks around, it's gg for real. No makeover or touch-ups are gonna stop it from turning us into walking ‍♂️‍♀️ "thank you, may I have another" machines without any chill or freedom to do what we want. So, yeah, kinda doom vibes if it doesn't hit the brakes.



    Okay, so if this whole mega machine we're living in decides to peace out and crash , it's gonna be a rough ride either way, no cap. But here's the tea ☕ — the chonkier this beast gets, the more epic the fail will be when it decides to just yeet itself into chaos. Like, bigger baddie, bigger booms, ya feel? So, kinda thinking out loud here, but if this thing's gonna go kaboom , might as well hope it does the thing sooner rather than waitin' for it to turn into Godzilla-size trouble. Early meltdown means less mess to clean up later, ya know? So, fingers crossed it doesn't go all out apocalypse on us if it does hit the fan.

    So, we're basically saying, let's get all revolutionary against this whole industrial gig . Whether it's gonna be with some action scenes or just chillin' and changing things bit by bit over years, who knows ‍♀️. I ain't got a crystal ball or anything. But for real, we're drafting up the vibes on how to hit up this revamp without turning it into some drama fest you'd see on the news cause of politics. Nah, this is more about dumping the whole "let's turn everything including peeps ‍♂️ into efficient machines" mindset. It's not about flipping governments; it's about tossing out the whole tech and dollar driven life script. Like, imagine wanting to toss your phone out the window but for, like, everything. Big mood.

    Okay, so in this whole chat we've been having, we've kinda zoomed in ️‍♀️ on just a few of the not-so-chill things happening 'cause of our whole industry and tech saga. There's a bunch of other messed up stuff we kinda just scrolled past or didn't even double-tap on . It's not like we think they're no biggie or whatever; it's just, ya know, gotta keep things tight and not write a whole novel every time we chat. We're trying to stick to the less hyped-up issues or the ones we can drop some fresh takes on ✨. And yeah, even though we're all for hugging trees and saving the bees , we didn't spill much tea on environmental drama or how we're trashing our planet's cool wild spots, since that convo's already blasting everywhere else. But legit, that stuff's hella important too.

    seriously why is Kolymonet buying up all the altchans

    Because
    It seems like youtube is planning to inject ads into the video itself. If you have not saved whatever video you appreciate and left the platform, now might be a good time to do so.
    Deleted member 1982
    I'm far away from getting monetised but adsense is a good income as youtuber. Or would you rather hear "support me on patreon/ buymeacoffee" 5 times instead of subscribe? Either this or sponsor reads. Actually direct support via these sites is even better and more reliable than adsense is. Which heavily depends on the genre of content and how many views it got.

    Sadly it is not a joke, they just figured out that if you physically add the ad at a random segment of the video, it will be harder for the user to block.

    Youtube has been screwing with their users for more than a decade now, I just point out that it may be a good idea to save whatever you need from the site now before it becomes even worse. Who's to say they don't pull the photobucket strategy in five or ten years? All it takes is a single TOS change.

    Again this is not fear mongering, just some advise. The only 'safe' data you'll ever own is whatever data you have on you. Storage is cheap and building a RAID is really not hard.

    I think it's time to recognize my limits, I don't know how to set-up a reverse-cors proxy to handle requests from my search engine, web backend is not something I know at all.

    Any of you guys know someone I could hire to help me with this task? I don't wanna hire a random internet freelancer :agcry:

    Ah, I understand. Well JTHM was, in part, Vasquez venting, wasn't it? Surely it would feel real because of that.
    I don't think that particular comic could shape you that way though, maybe it just reflected something you were already feeling.

    Do you wanna talk about it in DM? I don't think the public profile posts are a good place to talk about this sort of thing.

    I wrote a short story, I'm taking any and all criticism, just keep in mind that no deep thought went into this, the idea just popped in my head and I proceeded to sink a few hours into it. :agsmile:

    I'd go the opposite way and say you could probably cut back on the descriptions. It feels overly descriptive in a way that can negatively impact the overall reading experience. A good exercise could be to read back on what you've written and try to judge what's really necessary and what's fluff, try to think of ways to say the same thing with less words. Or more concisely.
    Just on those first few lines, you could probably reduce it to: "a body hung motionless from the ceiling, casting a haunting shadow across the cold white walls", to put an example. Try to think of different ways to present dialogue, beyond "he said -" "she said-".
    Not saying it's a bad story or anything, and it's all subjective in the end. I think you've got something good going and should definitely keep it up.

    Thanks Brap! I'll keep that in mind for the next time
    It is true that I do not like the he said, she said 'method', if I can call it that, but truth be told I worry about deviating too much for it out of fear of sacrificing understandability.
    Thank you two a lot for this! :agsmile:
    also yeah I didn't proofread this one, I just wrote it, rewrote it once and spellchecked it, I need to lose that bad habit and actually proofread things a month after writing them, with a clear mind.

    No problem. Take my advice with a grain of salt anyways, I'm a fellow amateur writer and just trying to share what I've learned.
    For your enjoyment, here's a paragraph using a lot of words from the 'phrases that piss you off' thread (I did not want to derail the thread with this shitpost):

    Ah, uh, so like, trust the science, kiddo, 'cause every time someone says "doggo" or "puppers," it's like, irregardless of how smol the bean is, they're doing a vibe check, no cap. And it's like, every time there's some kinda drama, everyone's all "I stand with [demographic/nationality]" and throwing around "sus" or "simping." It's kinda like, "I just did a thing," and they're calling it G.O.A.T., which is totally sending me, you know?

    And there's always someone who wakes up and chooses violence, living rent free in someone's head. Whenever someone older says something, it's all "Ok boomer," like that's gonna end the convo. It's the "this is a danger to our democracy" for me, honestly. When people say "[so and so] understood the assignment," I can't help but feel it's spilling the tea a bit too much.

    Then there's the whole "Let's goooooo" vibe when something big happens, and it's like, unfortunately, we're all just trying to say "Your feelings are valid" without sounding too much like we're all just vibing on the surface. Also, "bro's got a point," but then, "Erm...What the sigma?" Only in Ohio, bruhhhhh, do people get all "Why are you so hung up on this?" and "Why do you care?" Just relax, I guess, 'cause, well, maybe it's subjective. Just let people have fun, right?

    Well, if you do, take some reading material with you, at least. I know it's a little long at 17,000 words, but I think it'll be worth an hour of your time and might stimulate your imagination. There's some original thought and analysis in it, as well some surveys from Huxley, Popper, de Tocqueville, and Kaczynski.
