I don’t miss dial-up internet, I just don’t. I don’t even like the sound because it’s just digital screeches and it’s a sound that makes me cringe a little upon hearing it. Because I remember the times when I’d be listening to music with headphones with volume high and then that fucking digital screech just blares into my ears.

I don’t miss waiting 30 minutes to load a page. I don’t miss a bit of it.

      Thank you Mr obvious. The point is that streaming platforms are changing the mentality and behavior to listen to random titles of different artists instead of full albums and that is also why albums don’t have a „story“ anymore. It’s too easy to click away to something different, skip a title (was already easy with CDs), be distracted. I personally own a vinyl player to combat this for myself.

        You have free will and can make your own choices about how to consume music. And drag wants you to use that free will to not misgender drag as “mister”.
