10 years ago today, the first post went up here. When you’re a kid, you the old people talk about how fast time passes as you get older, but you don’t really get it until you get older yourself. Then one day turns into another, seasons fly by, and all of a sudden a decade is gone. Back in 2005, MySpace was the big thing (“The Facebook” wasn’t even open to the public yet), YouTube had only been founded in February (hadn’t been bought by Google yet), and there was no such thing as Twitter. <\/p>\n
So blogs were a place where people could share their thoughts and like-minded people (and their trolls) could form communities. You wouldn’t know it now, but this was a pretty active place for quite a few years. But eventually people migrated to places like Facebook (the ones that didn’t die or forget their passwords and insist they’d been “banned”) and only the most stubborn people are left. I know I’ve had a hard time thinking of shit to say (I just don’t have the energy to express my righteous indignation anymore). <\/p>\n
I used to try and put something up every day (I used to write shit the night before and set it to post at 5:00 AM Eastern), but now it’s not unusual to go a couple of weeks or more. All part of that whole time flying by thing, I guess.<\/p>\n
And now Thanksgiving’s over and Christmas will be here before you know it. I wonder ho fast the next 10 years will go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
