What made this place what it was for that stretch of time is dead — or at least in the throes — but there's a big internet out there. More fragmented, less accelerated, but still filled with people who make it worthwhile. Happy 2024, friends. You're amazing.

I read that the maximum size of a document in the current PDF standard is 381km x 381km and I thought woah hilarious, how Borgesian is that? And then I looked it up and it's only fucking true.

i think the best way for biden to win over the right would be for him to win the election and then say, “actually, no, you can be president.” and step down. to prove that dems are just that much more sporting. and shame the gop into giving up.
