in 1995 uploading content of this caliber got you featured in time magazine. also this guy had a page on his site w/ full-on directions for how to get to his home with a little ascii art map and all!

Holy shit, I was looking for advice for how best to free a sapphire specimen from some matrix that's still stuck to it and I hit the jackpot!

A lapidary forum post from 2004!

And the forum is still active!

Decades of rock-nerd wisdom, in an easily-searchable archive that predates social media.

Oh yeah, that's the good shit. I'm going to be all over these archives. Here's the link for any other rock-nerds out there:

nothing makes me feel like i've lived a thousand lifetimes more than seeing "the buddy cole documentary" and "other girls" and "antisocial media" on the same list. like what do you mean i'm only 21 i should be at least eighty

I’ve always thought about the internet in a hundred years time. As we all know, the internet doesn’t really erase things, and if it can, probably not easily.

What if things get buried so deep there’s a new sub field of archeology? Just doing their thing and digging for memes. Honestly, is this practical? I don’t know. I’m not tech savvy and I’m definitely not an archeologist.

so happy because when I was a silly teenager I could go on tumblr dot com and obsess over famous older guys with other teenagers and now I'm in my twenties I can go on tumblr dot com to obsess over even older guys with other people in their twenties or thirties or forties or whatever. so what I guess I'm trying to say is being here is like growing up together with an unapologetically weird and over-excited childhood friend and I love you all so much

love going on blogs that have been untouched for a decade and being the first bitch to add notes that say the stupidest things for shits and gigs
