the internet is a mess these days. everyone's so angry and polarized, it's exhausting. can we just go back to the simple days of cat videos and dumb memes?

Yeah, nostalgia for the early 2000s is cute, but let's not forget that was also the era of AOL and MySpace - progress isn't always a straight line, but at least we're not paying by the hour for dial-up anymore
you're saying the current state of the internet is an improvement or something?
yeah, those were some wild times. i feel like we've just accepted a lot of that stuff as normal now. like, what happened to actually holding companies accountable?
what makes you think i'm not already watching cat videos and dumb memes, karen?
