CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@alice serve. Rawr

@alice Cartoon lust eyes.

@genderfucky This is sooo pretty!

@boxofdelights I was going to reply with Murderbot before I saw you were allready there. The Forever War and Red Rising are a couple of other favorites.

@alice We all gotta care deeply and challenge directly and watch out for each other.

@Natasha_Jay I'm so cyber I piss neon and spit chrome. I cut my teeth in a time when you would swap floppies and underground zines. I would try to learn every machine I touched, from the C64 at my friends house because his dad was an enthusiast, to the Tandy I inherited from a dead grandfather I had never met. No modem, no wifi, no youtube tutorial, no money. Just technology that was facinating to someone who just prior had been living on a mountain reading outdated encyclopedias by kerosene lamp, and only listening to the radio for 15 minutes a day because batteries were hard to get.

A computer was science fiction still, something from the movies. The ICU message notification still can set my brain on fire with anticipation. I keep my notifications off now, because no amount of push messages or advertising will ever compare to the sound that meant the person who I could actually be myself with had arrived online.

@alice nice

@alice ewwwwww
