My version is seeing the first cutscene in Resident Evil 2 and somehow convincing myself it looked indistinguishable from live action. I also remember being very impressed with Aladdin on the Sega Genesis (I had only ever seen NES games until that point)
Aladdin (and also Lion King) on Genesis / SNES had some ultra-smooth animation compared to anything we’d seen before!
I was really blown away by Goldeneye on the N64, too. The fact that they got blood on them in the spot you shot them and would grab the wounded spot as they collapsed was immensely impressive at the time.
“There is no such thing as a new idea. It is impossible. We simply take a lot of old ideas and put them into a sort of mental kaleidoscope. We give them a turn and they make new and curious combinations”
So, the primordial lifeblood of Lemmy consisted of historical memes. It was the thing that kept the feed going for many weeks in the beginning, and we still see echoes of that. It makes me glad because I feel I’m in a cozy, familiar corner of the Internet, replaying an entire lifetime of memes here. It’s as if meme culture was reincarnating in this very network of federated servers (ಥ ͜ʖಥ)
I used to be one of those “serial Monogamists”, which is just a pretty way of saying “severely codependent”.
After my first serious relationship in high school, I never went more than 6 months between relationships, of which there were a total of three between the ages of 18 and 30. The last one lasted 8 years and after getting away I realized I was happy for about 4 of them.
I’ve been single for almost two years now and for the first time in my life, I feel like I truly understand what it means to live for myself and not have my #1 focus and priority be another person.
I eventually realized there’s no one that’s made me consistently happier than I was just being single. All my relationships have come with so much extra baggage that just wasn’t worth the trouble.
