my beginnings on the internettor, spiel
so, ive been active on the internet for quite a few years at this point and by reccomendation from a good friend, ive decided to go over my history on it. the earliest website i was active on was scratch! this was the only place i interacted with people for years. i first started out on joja-sucks, but that got banned for "sucks". so i moved to luna_cat3, which i forgot the password for. the next account i made was named i_like-pie. this was the first account that lasted. i had it from 7th grade to 8th and during that time, i joined a few communities. the first of which was the the nubert cult! which was a universe losely based off of nubert from deltaruin. from the i moved onto The Sentient Flaw, which was a project in the nubert lore. it was made by a now good friend ultra_mixon. the The Sentient Flaw" didnt last for very long though.. after its passing i joined mixon's cookie bakery! which is where i remained for roughly 2 years. i was REALLY active in mcb, it was pretty much all i did. i neglected school largely to work on projects related to it and roleplay. around december i got into griffpatching for the first time. you just sit on this one guys wall, griffpatch and talk. on the 13th i got into a arguement with someone and got banned. that didnt stop me though, i made 2 new accounts, i_like-cherrypie and i_like-flesh. cherry pie lasted about a week and i made some projects on it, none of which are very good. flesh didnt last long enough for me to do anything, so it remains empty. around this time my discord got active again! i managed a server with some irl friends and my brother. didnt last long, so that discord died. i finally learned that scratch banned if by email and made a burner for totorosfriend7. this account is lost. but i do remember i got back into griffpatching again, right before i got banned. nub also joined scratch and i quickly became friends with him. the next account i made was 53street. i got real violent around this time. dont know why. i didnt actually hurt anyone, but some of the projects i remember making were stoning scratch cat and ramming spikes through a scratch cat. this is also when i first met angel! who at the time went by sior. a little later mixons cookie bakery made a discord server and i was hyper active in it. once again, it was near all i did. of course that account didnt last. so another was made. tor_v3, i forgot the password for this account as well, so nothing much was made on it. but, this is the first time we get to metion dodo! angel gave me a link to cool pa people, which became septic tank central! the next account i made is my current, popcornlover1999. this is a VERY complex era. i had stc, mcb and what now took up a majority of my time: griffpatching. mcb had been pushed aside for griffpatching. i used a alt, . i joined the natsuki army which is where my love for ddlc comes from. my time as 42 was strange. i made many friends, but it was hardly me. also by this time, me and dodo had overthrown and promptly trashed stc and i joined niche a week or so later. BUT BACK TO SCRATCH. i made clones of many accounts, but made them natsuki themed. i used kleki as a photo editor, which is why despite it being far from the best thing i have acess to, i use it to this day for both art and photo editing. i worked hard to promote the army, but like most things, interest waned. so, i was just a normal griffpatcher once more. until netheri came around at least. he was the 1st person i made a natsuki themed clone of and he was probably the one who was the funest to talk with. so we became somewhat close. mami also came around, which resparked my interest in anime. mami was a great friend and we still talk a little now and then, she has a similarly rocky relationship with st. by this point, i had died in mcb and griffpatching and niche were my homes. until scratch banned 42. i tried to make another account by a similar name, 43rwefse23432sds-_-, but much like flesh. it only lasted a day. the next place i had resdied in was gaehive. i used the account konakona_for my time in gaehive. i wasnt the greatest during this time, as i had been banned from niche and was thinking about leaving for the first time. once the summer hit, scratching stopped and i started to work on tors pit, my server. ive been a little neglectful to the discord side of things, so i may make another post dedicated to that. no promises...

ive made quite a few upgrades to my laptop over the past few weeks, so ive decided to go over them! for the frist upgrade, i took out my 2 sticks of 8gb ddr4 sodimm and swapped it for 2 16gb sticks. made my computer much snappier. after that we have what i did today, swapping my ssd. it was a lot easier than i thought it would be! very similar to ram, just the extra step of unscrewing it. my old ssd was 512gb, which is rather depressing considering i had a thumb drive that was half of that ; . ;). BUT! it is now a 2tb one! for the last "upgrade", i installed windows iot enterprise ltsc! its a stripped down version of windows 10 with none of the bloat and all of the fun stuff accessable. would reccomend migrating to it if your willing to. heres a little thing for reading this: thank you.

me and bagel (should give him his own class at this point ; . ;) have opened a new site, critical-mass! im going to use it as a place to mess around with css (and html itself of course). a fair warning before you visit it! there are LOTS of flashing lights. no idea what bagel will end up using it for. ive also invited colin to it, but he hasnt contributed anything yet. if you want to work on the site as well for some reason, you can contact me via either email or discord!
tor, school.
lily did much better than i, which is our standard. i failed fucking computer applications and world history. the one good thing about finals is that we get out SUPER early, like 10 30 early. writing this after doing intro to chem final, pretty sure i passed it. bagel over at orange dragon dude is also doing his finals. wish him luck! sorry for the shorter blog :p
lily, programming? spiel?
since a bunch of me and tors friends also have websites, ive decided to go over them! first up is bagels website, which you can access here! it goes over bagels cool computers and some of the cool stuff he does with them! tor's a lot better friend with bagel than i am, but i still think his stuff is cool. second up is colin's website, cool hands! his is still pretty early in development, but its still kinda cool. wish he did something cool with the css... he hasnt done much with it yet, but after digging through tors dms's it seems he wants to. so id keep a eye on it. up next is smb! hes another one of tors friends, so i dont know him super well. but his websites, smb.im and smb.blog are pretty cool! his main site isnt done yet, much like colins. BUT his blog is really well done! he has a pretty modern style with tons of centered text and smooth edges. not my favorite style, but he does it well enough that i like it! lastly is lans, lans-px. his is the newest one im covering, at just about 4 days old. but hes done a pretty good job with it so far. its just a bunch of links to other sites for now, but lans still makes it look decent.
tor, manga.
this is a special piece for me, it being the first manga i properly read. its what dragged me down the first time. its a great read and pretty high up there in terms of my favorite media. it was also the second piece of media to make me cry, after grave of the fireflies. the art in it is beautiful and i sometimes just flick through it to look at the art. you can read it for free here.
tor, spiel and programming.
well, its been 3 years now. hm. not making a project this year. hard to belive i got into this stuff all the way back in 7th grade. ive made so much shit on that website. got banned quite a few times to. i think about 17 times? i_like-pie, i_like-cherrypie, i_like-flesh, 53street, totorosfriend7, torv3(might be tor_v3), the gibberish acc, popcornlover1998, the netheri/natsuki shit (did this as a joke, ended up getting obessed for a while ; . ;). so many accounts. i have a list somewhere.... here!
both, spiel.
nothing too interesting this week, we ate lots of candy. took some photos. enjoyed the HUGE amount of rain we got over the last 2 days. (it has been raining almost nonstop.) didnt have any huge bike rides, maybe next week. i installed linux for the 1st time (mint), was really easy! might use it as something like a media center. dont know how big its hdd is though. brought it up with parents and they seemed indifferent so i might just set it up. the winter season of rowing begins, i cant wait to want to give up again!!! hope we dont just do steady state.
