yup. unrestricted internet access is what allowed me to learn who i am, while being stuck in an environment that was extremely hostile to the idea. its also what made me who i am, in a way, and i don’t have a single regret about it either. it’s what saved me from becoming a bigoted idiot, really.

this isn't very popular to say, but for me personally, it was good that i had unrestricted internet access when i was a minor. i was aware of what i was doing and enjoyed it. i don't look back on it and go "well that was a mistake", i look back on it and wish i could do it for the first time again

the "hank green used ai" discourse is insane (forget it jake, it's bluesky) but my favorite was a notable user asserting AI use is identical to consulting a sex worker and thus inherently male coded and all i have to say to that is that someone is unaware of what gender uses companion bots in china
