about

i'm heath. i am in my mid 30's and have been using the internet for over 20 years now. i've always been a big fan of websites like neocities. some oldies that come to mind are vampirefreaks, darkstarlings, sitdiary, xanga, livejournal, and the original geocities.

as you all know, the internet has been slowly rotted away from the inside by capitalism, and i feel truly terrible for the entire generations of people who have never experienced anything other than ads, influencers, selfies, and massive tech conglomerates eating up your personal information for breakfast. the internet use to be such a different place. the wild wild west, you could say. a truly unique experience to immerse yourself in at the time.

neocities and other nostalic websites have given me a wonderful rush, and started me on a seemingly never-ending quest to take myself back to the days of nickelodeon cartoons and dial up internet.

"Harry, there is never a perfect answer in this messy, emotional world. perfection is beyond the reach of humankind, beyond the reach of magic. in every shining moment of happiness is that drop of poison: the knowledge that pain will come again. be honest to those you love, show your pain. to suffer is as human as to breathe."
