My mom had the first tv in our community when she was a kid cause her dad owned the general store. Before that they all gathered around the radio at the store. By they, I mean the entire community cause he was the only one with a radio as well.

Wasn't expecting that to be associated with 1990

The other day, someone in one of the gaming communities posted a comparison of the progress of video games from mid-90s to mid-aughts, and a more recent decade. It was clearly meant to be slightly exaggerated since the the recent screenshots were all the same one from fortnite, but the point still stands.

I wouldn't trade my 90s childhood for anything in the world.

I wish that wasn't painfully true.

Nah fuck em. They invented nuclear physics and they can't figure out a goddamned email? Skill issue.

When I was growing up the “big scam” was chain mail and televangelists.
