it was fun to spend my formative (15-20) years building software for a bunch of aspd losers, but the project never earned money and was a legal liability and required unpaid labor
though it hurts to no longer be leader of my own little group of eternally online losers, i don't believe i've actually lost much in terms of income or clout, and im sure ive saved a lot of time, and i think i am healthier by being able to only come here once a month or so instead of all the time
the reason i keep coming back is because i am attached to the people here who i have known for years. its not about ego
despite the fact that tc is a loser and ruined a fun thing we had going and caused all work on this project to cease forever, im still thankful that there exists in this world a loser who will literally spend his entire life babysetting this little abandoned corner of the internet... and just like that short story matka... i will forever be the mother of this place no matter what happens because we cant change the past
