One time my website got hacked and I kept restoring the backup I had. The hacker kept fucking up my site and leaving his AIM screen name on the site. I messaged him to stop and he was shocked. "How do you keep bringing your site back?" Dude had no concepts of backups lol. I miss the 2000s. I miss the old internet. Whatever this is, it's a shit hole. I miss independent sites. The Internet was beautiful before billionaires took over.

Me: nice, could you log into some of my accounts to cancel them for me and oh, while you're there, could you remove my ex from some of these, you can put yourself there if you want, I don't care.
