She wasn't quite sure of the next step, needed to get her bearings.
And as she wasn't the type of person to rush into things without thinking, she took time to, well, think. It was a policy that had always served her well.

@geekysteven accusations of not having actually seen the film, read the book, watched the play etc are probably as old as media criticism. so this sounds like #nostalgia to me
I was having a conversation with a friend about media formats. She loves going into thrift stores and getting old cassettes which is something we did yesterday.
I asked her why. They are poor quality, rarely last long, and that unforced "stretch" thing they do makes my soul ache, sonically.
She described the ritual of cassettes, of vinyl, of "eight track (?)". She was lost in a world of nostalgia; something I don't have in me. I cannot empathise for the past.
I told her I had never used a cassette. She was shocked. I don't see why. Then I remembered Mickey Mouse.
I must have been small small. Like needing help wiping your bum small. I vaguely remember I had an anamatronic (sp?) Mickey Mouse. When you took off his overalls, a cassette thingie was visible on his back. You put in a cassette, closed it, dressed him again, and pressed play on his...nose? Ear?
He would tell a story with hand movements and facial expressions. And if you were rich and had more than one doll, they would act together.
Does anyone else remember this thing? As I said, I was small small. Am I making this up? Did I actually use a cassette?

I keep saying I really need to rewatch the movie. Do you have a favorite quote or scene from it?

I came across this at a local Muscat supermarket for about Euro 2.
A simple motor kit with switch and light. All the components are the same as when I started playing with electronics as a child back in the 1960s.
Brings back memories I'd long forgotten about. Might remind a few others too.
Will I use the kit? No, I'll repack it and keep it safe. The memories are worth far more than the 900bz it cost me.
What #Trump and the #TrumpMuskGOPClusterFuck does not yet understand is that #US and #G7 dominance is over and #BRICS is now dominant. We are watching #OldMen claw and fight to hang on by reliving #Nostalgia and fueling their #HighSchoolTouchDown #Fantasy
Randomisti tälleen mieleeni tuli eräs muisto lapsuudestamme 90-luvulla.
Nuppineula tai ohut hakaneula ihon alle.

It's been raining, and my shoes have been a mess, I remember times when I didn't worry much about it...
Today's post for #blaugust2025, a bit of a nostalgic one. Hope you guys like it.
Swedish developer and blogger Carl Svensson has published a new article on datagubbe.se. In "More retrocomputing, less nostalgia", he takes a critical look at the concept of retro nostalgia. He questions the widespread assumption that old technology was inherently better or more honest, and argues for a more nuanced view of retro fascination and technological development:
Creo firmemente que hoy en día hablar de tus cosas de manera casual, sin monetización, sin guiones y sin buscar vistas, es decir, hacer contenido más personal y comunicativo porque te gusta hablar de ti y lo tuyo es algo revolucionario
Cada vez es más difícil ver un vídeo de gente únicamente contando en un vídeo, 'pues ayer me compré x cosa y me encanta y también estuve en una tienda y tal". Y esos vídeos "caseros" que se notaban que estaban grabados con un teléfono así a voleo pero con ganas. Eso sí que lo echo de menos

May the artwork take you to a warm and glowing place on a rainy day.
Commodore has been officially acquired now. The guy on the left side in the back (with the green print on his shirt) is a real-life Dutch friend of mine: Marvin Droogsma. Kind guy. I once sold my Amiga 1000 to him.
