RARE TECH-RELATED VIRI W

i was gonna Fucking Lose It if these were gone tbh.

#viitalks #i know i need a better solution lol #bc my art to-do being stuck in an uncaring corporation's mitts is. Not Ideal #like either stop being a fucking Image Hoarder (HOW??? I'M A SELF TAUGHT VISUAL ARTIST WITH ANXIETY?) #or invest in a bigass multiTB drive just as an inspiration bank #but... that's Slightly Outside my budget for now -_- #and the site in general is a cesspool of unattributed low res work. i don't use it as much these days but idk a faster way to save shit- #from the browser of any device i happen to be on #that doesn't annihilate my storage #also i made my account as a teenager and i wouldn't want to lose the time capsule aspect of it either #just one more problem to throw money at if i ever come by it i guess. lmao #like... the irony of this scare is great too. like #i only got flagged for spam bc i was using an automated tool to slowly pin one image a minute off of my weheartit collections #bc weheartit is going DOWN like it's shutting down & deleting everyone's shit #and those are MORE nostalgic bc i used WHI more than pinterest in my mid teens #like..... #yeah. #there's stuff i actively wanna revisit #related to like. Deviantart Adoptable Critters #but also like early identity development lmao i. identified rly strongly with my silly misattributed unlawfully reposted images #like if i put anything up in my childhood bedroom walls it'd get Scrutinised and Destroyed #so... it was my version of cringefail teen posters #made even dearer by the need to hide them from fundie abusers #so............ #idk i'm prolly unhealthily attached to these things but #there's gotta be a way to unfuck the situation & still keep like #the adult improving artist version of reference image treasure troves #idk lol
