Neocities: An Excited Discovery For Me, The Archeologist Of The Old Internet ✨️

Neocities: An excited discovery for me, The Archeologist of the Old Internet ✨️

Hello everyone, today I want to share this discovery of mine for all of you who are missing the Geocities. This project called Neocities is a social network with free hosting to create sites and blogs, exactly what Geocities was.

Create your own free website.
Unlimited creativity, zero ads.
Neocities is a social network of 581,000 web sites that are bringing back the lost individual creativity of the web. We offer free static web hosting and tools that allow you to create your own web site. Join us!

Powerful features to help you build
We’ve made it easy to build your web site and explore other sites. Neocities features an in-browser HTML editor, a command line tool, custom domain support, fast site performance, easy file uploading, RSS feeds, folder support, and so much more.

Share your web creation with the world
It's your web site, your vision. Make it as normal or crazy as you want. You're the artist, you're in control.

This project is not new, it was created in 2013, but I only found out about it because of a discussion on Twitter about how social media nowadays sucks and people in the comments were giving alternatives and a blessed person mentioned this project.

Our mission: To make the web fun again by giving you back control of how you express yourself online.
 HTML editor, right in your browser
No tools needed. With our easy-to-use HTML editor, you're ready to start building your awesome website right now.

If you'd rather use your favorite desktop editor, no problem. Uploading files is as easy as drag-n-drop.

 Welcome back, web surfing
All Neocities sites are viewable in our website gallery. And it's easy to browse sites with our optional surf bar.

Using tags (our version of Web Rings) you can easily discover new sites related to your interests.

I certainly haven't had a blog/website in almost a decade, but a blog/website hosted on Geocities must be over a decade, so I definitely want to join the community. One of the things I liked to know is that a lot of people actively use Neocities and even young people who haven't had contact with Geocities are using it.

 Follow your favorite Neocities sites
Keep track of all your favorite sites by following them. Any changes to the sites automatically show up in your news feed. You'll also see what sites they follow.

 Web creativity plus community
Interact with your favorite web builders by posting comments, and sharing their sites on your social network of choice.

I just haven't created it yet because.... I don't really know what I want to do with it. I like a lot of things, I like to talk about a lot of things, so I really don't know lmao.

Zero advertising
Neocities will never sell your personal data or put advertising on your site. Instead, we are funded directly by people just like you with supporter accounts and donations.

Blazing Fast Performance
Unlike many other web hosts, we don't skimp on infrastructure. Neocities operates our own caching CDN in 11 datacenters all over the world to quickly serve your site. We also force 100% strong SSL on all sites, and have full support for HTTP/2. Because of our commitment to quality, we routinely out-perform the pricey cloud services on reliability, speed and uptime. Whether it’s your personal home page or a busy professional site, your site loads fast.

Developer tools
Our fast static hosting comes with a great in-browser HTML editor, easy file uploading, a command line tool, RSS feeds for every site, APIs for building developer applications, and much more!

Open Source
We publish the code that powers the site for inspection. We want to win your trust—not lock you in.

Well, that's it. An alternative for those who want to go back to what social media was like in the 90s/00s and a chance for nostalgic people to remember what it was like to use Geocities to connect with people. Speaking of which... hey Neocities! 👋 what if... you sponsor me!✨️ Just saying... you know, just giving a friendly suggestion...

Having no control over the absolute wreck you call your brain. Thinking in parallel to the speed of light. Millions of thoughts fighting to share the stage in your head even if it's dark all around it. It's chaos. It's life. It's electrically alive.

Oh my god, I've just seen this story on instagram about this guy that filled his bathtub with waterbead...except he didn't think about how he was going to empty it.

So he unplugged the bathtub which was apparently the worst idea he could possibly have because this happened

Oh My God, I've Just Seen This Story On Instagram About This Guy That Filled His Bathtub With Waterbead...except

So he panicked and started asking people on the internet what he should do. Which was also a bad idea.

First suggestion: flush the toilet

Oh My God, I've Just Seen This Story On Instagram About This Guy That Filled His Bathtub With Waterbead...except

This caused a smelly overflow that flooded the whole bathroom.

Second suggestion: vaccum the beads

Oh My God, I've Just Seen This Story On Instagram About This Guy That Filled His Bathtub With Waterbead...except

His vaccum caught fire.

At this point it had actually spread to the neighborhood and people came to ask question but he denied knowing anything about it. He then discovered that it's invaded the whole sewer system.

Oh My God, I've Just Seen This Story On Instagram About This Guy That Filled His Bathtub With Waterbead...except

And yet, he continued to take suggestion from the internet.

Third suggestion: put salt in

It actually worked. Well, until.

Oh My God, I've Just Seen This Story On Instagram About This Guy That Filled His Bathtub With Waterbead...except

Poop apprently started flooding his house.

And then the streets.

Oh My God, I've Just Seen This Story On Instagram About This Guy That Filled His Bathtub With Waterbead...except

It all happened yesterday so we're still waiting on an update on the situation but I hadn't laugh like this in a while.

You should go and watch the whole story (it's in 4 parts)

It's in french, but you get it even if you don't speak it and his screams of panic are hilarious

Word of warning: don't fill your bathtub with waterbeads. Just don't.

THE INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE ; AMC productions.

THE INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE ; AMC Productions.

The look on lestat's face! Like he is angry that he's doing this when he wants to give louis attitude for being a mean bitch to him hours ago, but then he hears her and is a little, if not a lot, intrigued about her.

THE INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE ; AMC Productions.

Now that they're playing daddies to little Claudia, they're are absolutely going to discuss the clothes, ah yes, the joy of parents.

THE INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE ; AMC Productions.

This was probably the funniest part of the episode😂😂, lestat being his usual sarcastic self.

THE INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE ; AMC Productions.

He really has been away from children for too long😂

THE INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE ; AMC Productions.

No comment, teen problems😂

THE INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE ; AMC Productions.

This fight! They act so much like a family now, parents fighting over their teenage vampire daughter. Despite the fact that lestat is overly annoyed most of the times about Claudia's antics he doesn't entirely hate the concept.

This scene is almost a depiction of the possible consequences, –although the argument here subsides–, of Claudia's curiousity.

Louis told Claudia to be careful when digging around and troubling lestat with questions because as knew all to well, that past troubles some people.

THE INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE ; AMC Productions.

This was a beautiful scene. Louis introducing Claudia to the idea that love works the same for all –objective in basics and free for subjective interpretations of the nuances. He answered her questions with just a few words but did so gently, not rebuking her, not confusing her more, just telling what it really is. This scene says so much about Louis and his acceptance of his sexuality throughout his years with lestat.

He's embraces that part of his identity.

THE INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE ; AMC Productions.

This show!!! I mean the way they've portrayed Anne Rice's vampires on-screen, as eternal beings with having subtle shades of humanity. Of being murderers, almost like apex predators in their own habitat but still having the similar concerns of failure as a parent, of hurting their loved ones. And sometimes, of hunting the wrong prey, which is clearly the humane side of them bothering.

EPISODE 4, S1

I AM IN ABSOLUTE LOVE WITH THIS ADAPTATION!!

I AM IN ABSOLUTE LOVE WITH THIS ADAPTATION!!

Oh this scene absolutely melted me, Sam Reid plays lestat with perfect charisma and character.

I AM IN ABSOLUTE LOVE WITH THIS ADAPTATION!!

Here, I just died of happiness. This one was literally brilliant dilevery, on both the actors part. The feelings, the buildup to that kiss of acceptance and the aftermath, everything!

I AM IN ABSOLUTE LOVE WITH THIS ADAPTATION!!

Well, lestat's french.🔪

I AM IN ABSOLUTE LOVE WITH THIS ADAPTATION!!

This scene was absolute gem! The little sounds from lestat- 'nuh-uh-uh-uh', 'hmm' just were so effortlessly delivered! And the laughter they shared, please!!! Literal soulmates!

I AM IN ABSOLUTE LOVE WITH THIS ADAPTATION!!

Lestat's a funny french twat. This is what being a pro vampire, queer and french man in love does to you, apparently.

I AM IN ABSOLUTE LOVE WITH THIS ADAPTATION!!

There interactions please😭😂😂. Daniel Malloy being a hardcore journalist taking no bullshit like his young self and straight up being a no-nonsense-patronizing journalist to perfection!
