I would like to think this is what social media was originally intended for.

This is exactly what social media was for.

shakes cane

I 'MEMBER WHEN YOUR FACEBOOKS AND MYSPACES WERE FOR GOSSIP, CHAIN MESSAGES, STUPID JOKES AND ODDITIES. NOT LIKE TODAY'S SOCIAL MEDIAS THAT ARE TRUMP THIS, BIDEN THAT, VANCE SUCKED OFF A COUCH. THEY'RE TOO MANIPULATED AND SERIOUS.

Yes, I remember.

I remember when Godwin shamed us all into not yelling at Nazis on the Internet and now look what we got!

Bunch of fucking Nazis IRL!

I miss IRC circa 1995. I started using mIRC, which gave me a taste for programming. Then I switched to Linux and started using BitchX. The biggest grief we had to worry about were people creating Eggdrop bots to ride the netsplits to take over channels.
