MySpace was actually cool though, sure it was full of cringy emo teens and busy overdesigned customized pages that were complete eyesores and took 30 minutes to load but dammit that gave it character, vastly superior to the conspiracy theory pushing, hate filled boomer hellscape that is Facebook.

I used PimpMySpace to customize my page. It still looked like Homer Simpson designed it but it was kinda neat.

Also, Bat having this for an av was hilarious:

Isn't FB functioning like actual infrastructure for millions of people in America these days? As in this is where people buy and sell stuff, find employment etc. Myspace could never embed itself into society to this (or any, tbh) degree

I stopped using Facebook about a year ago. All I did was bitch and moan about things I seen on Facebook

I use Instagram and Snapchat but I use them far too often for my liking. I point blank refuse to get TikTok because I lose enough time to the other 2.

Edit: and from what I can tell TikTok is like crack.

Mind blown. Will never think the same.

Social media is the dragon of chaos.
