in This Present Time I can have regular interactions with my adolescent celebrity crush that I *actually* would not be able to convince my 14-year-old self are real. not because of their significance but the opposite.
calling her mom is like... the only even remotely reasonable outcome, btw. she *is* a mom several times over, now. and 46.
and by "crush," i mean... at least 30% of my total cumulative mental energy was spent repeating "I am so in love with Sienna Guillory" for *years.*
imagine telling that person "one day, you're gonna wish her happy mother's day every year in a text box. she will call you 'bub.'"
I'm pretty sure it would make him suicidal.
(but the outfits would save his life at the last moment.)

I am so fucking sick of Freedom. Freedom sucks. Freedom doesn't work. I'm tired of trying to figure out what I'm supposed to be doing. PRISON would be refreshing!!!

there is a search engine that is basically just Bing except most of the profit generated by the adtech goes to PLANTING TREES. (Ecosia)
there are decentralized social networks (Mastodon, Diaspora) that often OUTPERFORM the proprietary big boys because they're still incentivized to craft the HIGHEST QUALITY experience rather than the most lucrative.
