I've always disliked Facebook for the lack of being able to customise it. There used to be a lot of fun apps and games on it but even those seem to have gone by the wayside now, and with Twitter (which I used to use quite a lot in 2014 - 2016), they stripped everything from it that made it personal. I used to use MySpace, too, but none of it compares to geocities, or bravenet, or any of the free places that you could

design your own webpage on. I'm glad neocities and nekoweb exist because they are the only places on the internet that I feel at home at.

yooo how did you do the view and hide for the listfauxgraphy? i was thinking of eventually mirroring my own listfauxgraphy and that's so neat......

@zhongvie i did it with js! i didn't really like the scrolling as much and wanted it to look more like actual listography. here is the code if you want to use it for yours! https://github.com/peachyvoid/peachythings/blob/main/viewmore.txt

eh, sometimes. Usually I download my entire site before something like that, so if I really, really hate the change, I can revert back easily.

I started a new site for this reason. My old one is still up because I didn't want to undo all of my work on it.

Sometimes! I felt kinda bad when I went to change my about page because I really liked how I had it before. That's why I keep backups of all my old pages just in case I end up wanting to revert back to any of them! Don't feel too guilty though because it's understandable wanting to try new things! <3

3 hrs later and it's still down... i heard the owner disappeared a few months ago, do you think it's just server issues or could the site be gone-gone???

thank you both!! and yesss invader zim was a core building block of my childhood/early teens lol
this is a great blog, and i feel the same about having a personal website vs. social media! also, after i turned 30, i also stopped caring less about fitting in and started being more myself. it was like i reconnected with my 15 year old self. i read a post one time that was like "when you turn 30, you become your 15 year old self again, but this time you love them" <3
@cozyamanda it's very true! i look back on my teenage self with much more love and grace than i used to. i think it's really neat that it's sort of a shared experience for people. and it's truly such a freeing feeling to just fully lean into what brings you joy!
@Cozyamanda In my teens and early twenties, I used to hide a lot of my interests but by the time I was in my mid twenties, I got fed up of it. By my late twenties (and I was at uni, by then), I didn't hide my interests at all. If people judged then that was their problem, not mine. I actually found it amusing though how younger people were more bothered about how others saw them. I hope that they've figured out how
to be themselves and not worry so much.
