A community for sharing and discussing art, aesthetics, and music relating to '80s, '90s, and '00s retro microgenres and also art in general now!

Some cool genres and aesthetics include:

If you are unsure if a piece of media is on theme for this community, you can make a post asking if it fits. Discussion posts are encouraged, and particularly interesting topics will get pinned periodically.

No links to a store page or advertising. Links to bandcamps, soundclouds, playlists, etc are fine.

Great idea, now when they'll go around putting the communists into camps within the next five years you can show this tattoo to prove that you're just a harmless liberal

This is one of those things that's just unknown and vague enough that it can't be cringe.

If someone asks you what it is you can just say "oh it's a cute bear cos I like them" .

Oh yeah I’ve got cover stories for days

This is cute. I don't see a problem with it.

If the site goes away eventually or has problems down the line? The tattoo is still a memory of everything up to this point, not everything from this point onwards.

Nice bit of history, if it matters to you then I don't see why not. I would feel differently if it were some site that was created under circumstances other than a community trying to make its own way after being forced into exodus/exile though.

Yeah I’ve been around since the beginning and even if it stops being the place that I love, the experience was something special. Community is so often fleeting but can do amazing things.

I just took 2d6 psychic damage

Or "just to suffer"

It’s a special thing. Heavily under appreciated imo

Yeah I feel like these will be looked back upon as the golden years of the site. As far as I can tell from a superficial reading, of course, people are generally trusting; there is pretty much exactly the right amount of engagement with stuff where you can comment something and expect to get some amount of interaction on it, even if the post is fairly established; not everything is already said but it’s also not a ghost town.

Jesus, already? I remember when the migration first started and I was curious over who had come from the old sub.

[–] marxisthayaca@hexbear.net 1 points 2 years ago

the site opened around september no of 2020, no?

I don't even like tattoos but as tattoos go - I think that's a good one. If that makes any sense.
