Terminally Normie / YouTube Addict / Didn't Rage At GenAI or AGI / Slightly Edgy
It's me, Norm, the aforementioned NORMIE to digital enthusiasm, retro computing and web design. This site is my digital journal where I document my adventures in the digital world.

I decided to document stuff and share to the known web about the things I discovered. My grammar isn't the best, I'm no writer, and most of the time I type before I think. But it's something that I usually do. Hey, at least it takes my mind off of using mainstream social media.
The webmaster's mascot which might as well represent me, is not a bird. I have no idea what kind of creature this thing is, likely drawn in all in MS paint on a whim.

With the web being more centralized, something something about dead internet theory make it hard to find more human users, or at least, not bots.
In my experience, as a normie divorcing from the mainstream media, any service that doesn't accept forwarding alias such as addy.io or Simple Login is not worth your time. Even as a normie, I advocate for stronger privacy policies. Services that even rejected Proton mail, Tutanota or forced users to use Google service is a big no-no. Me? I signed up with Tutanota for Neocities and other website.
Here are some websites and webservices that I found interesting:
Spacehey - A MySpace revival project. One can do so much with their own profile customization.
Basement Community Forum - A small general forum as of writing this blog at 22nd of September. It has the bare minimum features with some missing, such as likes or dislike system.
straw.page , mmm.page - Very simple static website builder.
TheDev.Id , is-a.dev - Free Dev subdomains and homepages. Not that I use any of these, I'm a plebian in comparison.
Blogging services for indie-minded peeps:
I'll add more in the future. Thanks to this yay.boo page that inspired me to create this directory of awesome stuff I found.

I made the stupid decision of watching the entire season of DanDaDan in one seating than doing my homework. I'm terrible at cramming but cramming is what I do all day. I'm sadden to hear Comick (the manga piracy website) is dead. I ought to make a habit of downloading all my volumes in one go before they'd disappear forever.
I'm a normie here, I dunno how torrenting works or how safe they are. I heard of private trackers, and wish to meet with them. It's the question of how will I join their neat club.

Sort of an excuse since it's been regurgitating through social media circles that I'm unwillingly been subjected to. No, that ICE shooter is not right-wing if we go by the logic THEY liked the migrants deported. Yes, the shooter had gunned down the illegals instead. Politically motivated? Duh. This fruity fuck was aiming for the ICE officers. Even the bullet SAYS anti-ICE. Too many politically motivated shooting (from left-leaning shooters). I'm going to stop pretending they're right-wingers since the lot were busy mourning for Kirk's death.
I read somewhere, despite being a shooter against the Right-Wingers, these fucks will never martyr you. Instead, they, anti-conservative regardless of the leanings, will disvow you and spit on your grave. Stop escalating things. This isn't a Nothing Ever Happens incident, this shit will snowball into something more extreme.
Thank you for attending to my gay Ted-Talk.
On an unrelated note, my arm hurts from a hard day's work. Overtime.

If anyone has a keen eye, I linked in the footer of my website of a mirror. Reocities.xyz. It's supposed to be one of the lesser known Neocities clone that hosts static website. And, at a glance, provided up to 1GB of storage (similar to Neocities).
The one glaring problem was I cannot sign back in the next day, the next time my cookies or cache removed from my browser. I know for sure I had the password and mail address remembered in my password manager. There isn't even an option to recover the account via "forgot password". How annoying.
Word of warning for indie web enthusiasts. Either keep the cookies in your browser at all times, or use Reocities as a one-time thing. Once you upload your files there and logged off, you will never able to sign in.

And I don't mean the infamous big bad word he uttered out of the heat of the moment. No. I'm talking about the time he made a reaction video on a shotacon content called "Boku no Pico". Was it illegal? Perhaps. YouTube hasn't taken action, nor was it age-restricted as of writing this in the 26th of September. Was Pewdiepie do was degenerate? Let's take a step back and dissect this peculiarity....
Open Lolicon enthusiast, Chibi Reviews, point fingers towards a very old video of Pewdiepie of filming a livecam reaction video on Boku No Pico, defending his position as a sort of a whataboutism. What about Pewdiepie?
In defense of the now retired Let's Player, in the ancient times of... 20 tens... Boku No Pico, which is an infamous Shota Yaoi hentai (I am not going to define this for you) was one of the well known shock content circling around the time, along with 2Girls1Cup, and Goatsee.
Was this shotacon content supposed to circulate as distributing pornography onto younger audience? If you spin it in a way with removed context, it seems to be. However.
THEY ARE NOT SHARED TO ENTICE EXCITEMENT OR LUST BUT RATHER DISGUST!!! 2010s were the edgier Internet era where sharing shock content and jumpscare to invoke reactions from normies. That's the point of Boku No Pico being share. It's to SHOCK you. Kids sharing 2Girls1Cup is not because they're redistributing porn which, in legal terms, they are, but it's to provoke reactions from the unknowning normies and teach them how to be cautious of clicking links!
I hate how lolicons spin Pewdiepie, and a lot of react videos of the time... Anime man and the washed-up anituber (formerly a friend of Joey) Noble "Lost Pause" also made reaction videos and then some of this shocking shotacon yaoi show. Was it legal? Fuck no. If I could, I should have erased it from the faces of the earth if I can. misconstruing that these creators as introducing their younger audience to porn was disingenuous. If anything, likely Pewdiepie or other creator's audience BROUGHT attention to them about Boku No Pico. I'm surprised how laxed the law was back in the day. Pewdiepie, if I remembered correctly, was in the UK at the time.
In all sincerity... Get bent, lolifucks. You're still disgusting and CSAM will never be legal.

I should really enjoy my weekend. Apparently, I can't. My hands have been so busy, all I feel is dread.
Woeing aside, I have plans of releasing compilation of YouTube videos that piqued my interest pertaining to A.I.. ChatGPT seemed to be people's go-to reference or even Gemini. Normie slop (look who's talking?)
Compilation involves artists reacting to them, but mostly that I find interesting. I'll keep the doom and gloom to a minimum.

I saw a few of these guys in the passing while browsing through YouTube, and I'm sure they're all being empathetic and shit trying to experience what women goes through certain week of the month.
People in the comment sections below these videos seemed to commend those men trying out this pain simulation pads to their abdomen (and hilariously enough nowhere near the region for the female analogue) and going through this challenge of experiencing shocks for views. Of course, I wouldn't be taking the clapping seals there represent the general consesus of the normies. I see it what it was.
Misguided or performative either way was a humiliation ritual for a circus act. Guys, plastering that shit and going through shock therapy to emulate the "women experience" is utterly stupid. It's not a constant level 6 or 9. Women, of course, they're not a fucking monolith, percieve pain differently and experience them even at the mildest or no pain at all.
It's missing the nuance of the hormones giving women some fuckery to make them act like a bitch during this time of the month. (yes, science explains it!) Hormones making more emotionally (angry mostly) charged and clouding their rationale, feeling bloated and ugly, and being on laxative. It's missing that. Also, the period cramp isn't constant, as I was told by lady friends of my circle, it comes in waves. Sometimes it's not there, sometimes it hits at 8 but wavers to 2 and maybe shoots up at a 5.
I get that some of men really, really wanted to relate with their lady friends, but this isn't the way to do it. This is to the toddler levels of understanding their pain, like a picture book with drawn illustration than witnessing the beast in person.
You do you. Those videos done for clicks really rubbed me the wrong way.

Oh, no, no, Ian. This isn't going too good. Accusing Joel Vinesauce, and his fanbase "dog-whistle" for something is a bad look to you, bud.
Joel Vinesauce is unproblematic as a funny streamer that giggles at the slight jiggling of keys. You're alienating the last of your remaining fanbase. You stupid fuck.
