Who wants in? We can talk about what is was like to write a letter to your grandma or having no other way to ask someone out other than by calling them on the phone. Or checking out movies at Blockbuster or whatever your national equivalent was (we usually checked out videos at the grocery store, actually).

We’re cool because we can actually remember the USSR and “East” Germany. Although not as cool, I can remember when homophobia and transphobia was so much more widely accepted and the “default” position for most Americans. Not as cool.

    Reminds me, my local video store would make bootleg VHS copies but would sometimes reuse tapes and just print new stickers for them which I discovered when I kept All Dogs Go to Heaven playing after the credits and saw a lady getting splattered with cum. They got raided by the feds later when they tried doing it with CDs and DVDs. Miss that place.
