Why do some tumblrs look like theyâre geocities pages from 1998? (note from 2023 Rachel - because they were rad)
Gateway 2000 Colorbook
Today I was remembering my very first laptop; a Gateway 2000 Colorbook that my father cast off and gave to me. I used it from about 1999 - 2004. All I remember about it is that it had a 512MB hard drive, a floppy disk drive, and Spider Solitaire, so it mustâve been running Windows â98. I mostly used it for word processing (and solitaire), and using it made me feel like a real writer (which I am not and have never been). I began many a terrible novella on that computer. I even used it to take notes during my first year of undergrad, although by then it was obviously past its prime. I bet it would still boot if I tried (/if I knew where it was).Â
My very _first _computer was a TI-99/4A, which I mostly used to play TI Invaders and Sneggit, and frankly I wish I could go back in time and not throw it away.

Note from 2022 Rachel: Okay what this is about is that I read an old post from a guy who ate only potatoes for two weeks and lost weight (this isnât the post, but similar) so I tried it and lost absolutely nothing except my taste for potatoes.
Had to go to the washroom, paused my tv. This is what it paused on. Gordon, you da best. #fuckyeahgordonramsay

Guys, I have such ladywood for the perpetually sullen Lana Del Rey, her face is unicorn barf and sprinkles I canât get enough.
I have a documented girlcrush on del rey, but I may actually be in love with this stunning âdoodleâ.
John Aravosis quotes a very apologetic spokesperson from ABC Denver, where a stafferâs search for a picture of Paula Broadwellâs All In ended in failure: âWhen the 7NEWS reporter went on the Internet to get an image of the book cover, the reporter mistakenly grabbed a Photoshopped image that said, âAll Up In My Snatch.ââ (via All Up In My Snatch - Boing Boing)
