Cocaine & Ketamine, but cutting it with something else, I know not what (tons of money?)

I love and donate to SomaFM.

I have been hooked on the ‘DroneZone’, but there are lots of other channels on SomaFM that I should explore.

There is very minimal interruption (hourly? and quietly) asking for donations.

AOL - ISP. Not sure order of operations here… I was also on Mozilla/Netscape (1991/92-?)

Bulletin Board Channels: There was at least one gay one in San Diego (ca. 1992-1995). We would chat and post online, then once a month, meet at a gay bar with name tags with our handles.

IRC - fun chat site (at least into 1997 for me)

LISTSERV - this was less useful for me. signing up for ‘reading lists’ or ‘subscriptions’ to ‘butterflies’ ‘sourdough’, etc. (I honestly do not recall the groups I signed on to) when no one really seemed to be there (1992-94?) though I didn’t move with the hip crowd

Wow. Thank you. That was gross, but now it’s clean.

Wow, that’s great! Thanks for sharing

Does this have a name other than 'a wave'?

Looking at this makes me think of some pictures of the surface of the sun, teeming with all the roiling, explosive energy barely contained beneath the surface, and then this, a solar flare, erupts

Talking post-Sesame Street/Mister Rogers/Electric Co. tunes

Circa 1983 on my first plane ride alone, aged about 10, from CA to GA, headphones plugged into the armrest with the ashtray inside: 'The Tide Is High' by Blondie was the first 'grown-up' song I recall that grabbed me.

Both of these collections have more or less ‘dropped off’.

Menus are mostly printed take-out menus, though I swiped the in-house menu as well when I could. Now, most of the casual dining places have replaced menus with QR codes.

The grass clippings were just a snip of a memorable event (cousin’s college football game, first time solo camping, special event, new home, etc.).

I quit in 2019, by basically OD-ing on the patch. I had multiple patches on me at all times; at the end, it felt like my skin was burning

I thought ‘Kay’ was too obvious

Books, ephemera found in books, tree leaves, grass clippings, pencils.

Menus and matchbooks have been more challenging with changing times

I’ve never heard of an archaeologist too scared of a new endeavor. (I have no friends and fewer archeologist friends.)

Does anyone have experience/thoughts about Mojeek?

I just recently learned about it and haven’t really explored it, but curious.

Thanks!

I wouldn’t be so quick to donate to CCDH.

Mike Masnick over at Techdirt has thoughts I found interesting. (and here)

Countdown to a certain segment of white Americans saying they are the oppressed minority, need their guns to fend off the ‘colored majority,’ and need food stamps… (I think this is already happening with some religious groups) (I’m white - but I do not hold these beliefs!)

It sucks migrating between instances right now. I’ve found no way to port my subscriptions from one instance to another. All of your subscriptions are saved on your current instance as websites, but to subscribe on you new instance they need to be formatted ![name]@instance Lots of work needs to be done

Left interior coat/jacket pocket for phone. I’m in SF, so always wear some kind of coat/jacket.

I agree with you, but What action(s) are you taking? I’m not an admin/moderator. I don’t want Meta (or Twitter or Tik-Tok) influencing this new space, as it grows, to the degree possible. I’ll keep exploring, just not sure what controls I have over the situation.

First week here at Lemmy and kbin; still figuring things out. I DO NOT want a relationship with Meta and hope to minimize, if not eliminate, the amount of data they have on me.

Never joined Facebook, Insta, Twitter, Tik-Tok, any of it, as they each were creepy. Reddit was my only thing and then this year happened.

This https://redditmigration.com/ seems to be a crosswalk for subreddits on Lemmy/kbin. I don’t know if it’s maintained, but you might find something to help.

I found that crosswalk here.

Thanks for asking this!

I set up accounts on both in the hysteria of leaving reddit.

I think I get how the various lemmys work/interact, I just don’t know how Kbin fits into the picture.

I am just using my laptop, not on mobile devices yet.

Third day here, so still learning and giving lots of time and patience for the dust to settle
