End of an Era

I can still vividly remember the time I heard Trump was shot. I thought he was really assassinated or badly wounded at first. But I still remember. Might be the same thing with this. I think I'm still going to remember what I felt in the days coming up to it and the days proceeding. I don't think it's a simple it'll be down for a couple weeks. This might truly be the end of 4chan as we knew it. In a way it's almost fitting for the site that was so developmental for my teenaged years went down a few months after I was no longer a teenager.

It's hard but we have to try to be thankful for the time that was spent. I can genuinely say I wouldn't be the same person as who I am today if not for 4chan. It introduced me to so many hobbies I wouldn't have had if I'd never come across. I've been able to talk to all sorts of people I never would've been able to interact with without 4chan. I have many fond memories that I don't think I'm soon going to forget. I'm grateful to all the anons that made 4chan special.

It's with great sadness that I say goodbye. I can replace it somewhat with other platforms but 4chan was really the place I could just be myself. Where I really felt comfortable. Where I was actually proud to be a part of. I know I'll grow a little lonelier without it. I know this won't reach 'em but I'm glad for all the memories and I'll treasure them. By now the culture of 4chan is deeply embedded into who I am as a person, for better or worse.

Good bye.

You simultaneously taught me how to be happy and how to bring revolution.

Maybe because of this I'll spend more time blogging here and reading vinnies.
