The kids these days will never know the joy of playing Chicken Invaders, Insaniquarium, or Digby’s Donuts. Too busy on TikTok and Roblox.

Youko Kanno × POP ETC (2014)
Statuses
The old man had photos of his grandkids on his Walkman. Man. To think he must’ve been looking at them every now and then on this device…
Got a backup Fujitsu Arrows F-05G for reasons. God forbid if ANYTHING happens to my or my fiancée’s phone… I’ll be prepared.
After gym, I’ll bake poppy seed bread and work on the red Walkman—so much music on it already. I’m thankful for that old man and his widow.
The Microsoft weather forecast on my work computer is so stupid. Says it’s 30°F and feels like 30°F, it’s actually 12°F RIGHT NOW!
Twitter and Facebook used to not have a Like button. People forget that. Or, they’re too young to ever know these platforms weren’t viral.
Picked up Jonathan Haidt’s The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness because I’m interested in getting rid of destructive post-pandemic online habits.
Looking forward to ACTUALLY having time to work on my websites. About freakin’ time.
I wish I had known about Stardock’s WindowBlinds and other applications ages ago! I’m stuck on Windows 11 but now it’s BEARABLE. Damn!!!!!
I still have 15,250 emails left to clear out, but I’ve done 700 so far. It’s a little progress but it’s progress. My poor Inbox…
So I got the Walkmans working! Not that they were broken… Just, happy to be moving my MP3s to something local, you know? No more streaming.
You know, I forgot how nice it was to just open and read a newspaper. Not a million articles screaming at you from an ever-updated feed.
Think I’ll unsubscribe from Sirius XM. There’s not much of a reason for me to listen anymore, and I have too many audiobooks waiting for me.
I don’t understand musicians who have Spotify but not a Bandcamp. I want to pay for this album, but I can’t??? I guess I’ll just download??
Looking into a start-up I saw a year ago, wanted to see how they’re doing. Somehow, they’re still alive, but their market is very small.
Me an’ my gigabytes of music recordings, and people in 1902 just happy to have had ONE song on music box. I’m really spoiled…
I think I’m finally finished decorating my flip phone with 3D stickers, but I don’t want to share it yet until my phone charm arrives…!
Old Android flip phones are crazy. It’s been well over a week and my Sharp Aquos from 2017 still has a charge. Damn, girl.
Currently reading: “The Post-Peak Attention Economy” (2019) by MIDiA Research. Market analysis paper.
Holy shit, my new futon dryer is amazing. Thank you technology for keeping my bed warm in this cold freezing winter
