List Of Websites That Replicate The Feeling Of The Old Internet Because I Hate The Modern Web And I Hope

list of websites that replicate the feeling of the old internet because i hate the modern web and i hope it explodes:

spacehey: possibly the most well-known recreation of myspace and a much better alternative to friendproject (im xXGEKKO'S_FLESH_GRINDERXx if u want to add me! :D)

nuclearboom: relatively new website that's somewhat of a hybrid between myspace and youtube, its one of my personal favs and it deserves way more attention and support

neocities: website where you can make your own webpage from scratch- already pretty well known by now but putting it here anyways

vistaserv: similar to neocities, but with a more geocities/web 1.0 feel to it- another personal fav :D

dreamwidth: website like the old livejournal layout, still trying to figure out how to navigate it but it looks super neat

blips: recreation of twitter from 2009, its pretty simple and still being worked on- but it has a lot of potential ^_^

bitview: video sharing site that's super faithful to the old youtube layout! (there's also vidlii but honestly i dont recommend it)

feel free to add on!!

I’m really not a dog person, like when faced with an actual dog I find they’re just kinda slobbery and noisy and they make weird smells and I’m not a big fan

but I still have super strong feelings about dogs as a concept. I mean we take these animals and we shape them into the perfect companions for our species in a process that takes tens of thousands of years. We make them so that they love us, and serve us, and will learn how to do whatever we need them to do. We make them want to guard us while we sleep, to guard our livestock, to guard our homes, to help us hunt, to act as beasts of burden, to watch our children and our fields. They’ll learn how to see for us. They’ll run into burning buildings for us. Dogs walked beside us every step of the way as we became the dominant species on the planet. And all they ever ask for in return is enough food to stay alive and as much love as we will give them.

I mean, people talk a lot these days about how we’re ‘playing God’ with genetic engineering, or with artificial intelligence, and they make that sound very ominous, but when you think about it, we, as a species, have already created another species. And I am heartened and humbled to know that, when humanity set about the daunting and monumental task of creating another race to be our companions on Earth, we made something as noble and selfless and loving as dogs.

And I feel like the fact that we have created such obviously good creatures who only want to serve us confers upon us a responsibility to be gentle and kind and compassionate with them. In an existential and anthropological sense, they’re humanity’s children. We gotta be nice to dogs. We owe them that much.

I dunno man, I think about this stuff. I don’t gotta be a dog person to be grateful. good dogs. thank you dogs. we might not be here without you.

if you're comfortable with sharing . . . this blessed doll was curious on how to make rentry graphics with gifs . . . as you've made them before, this one decided to ask

well , it depends what type of gif the blessed doll is looking to make !

image - fade type gif explanation ~

but onto the edited gif tutorial !

i go into ibis - paint x && Open the gif that i want to edit ,

add a new layer , color it white , lower the opacity ~

add another layer , go to filters > frame > blur frame , strength is set at 15 , apply it twice ( don' t just set it at 30 ) , turn the gif ) first layer' s opacity to zero %%. save it as a transparent png !
