Serious: my healthy brain, or at least, a brain that appeared to function more similar to a healthy one Only a little less serious: Packet radio. I was not alive for its heyday, but I wish I could play more with it now.

The highly era-specific experience of renting a game with an on-cartridge save battery and getting to play the files of people who made it way further than you can

Thanks to whoever left a save file with Adult link on it because my 6 year old ass was too scared to go into the Deku trees mouth

I remember renting a Super Metroid cartridge with a save past the point of no return at Tourian (which was a bit disappointing because I wanted to explore the map with my ridiculously powerful full loadout).
I went into the Mother Brain room and wondered "Why is there a cacodemon from Doom in a jar?"

A fractured world with different places and ways of being
I want to be able to be born into a small society, grow up with travelers talking about how down the coast there are people that don’t live exactly like we do, and they have different values and habits and customs and how that’s cool. I want the option to leave my current group and go join that one, and live the way they live and integrate to their society.
Just reading a David Graeber co-authored book where he talks about the Pacific coast of North America pre-european contact. There were vastly different economies and social structures all along the coast, the economy of the southern portion of the coast was very different from the economy of the northern portion.
You had these absolutely huge gulfs in how a society and economy was put together, often in remarkably small geographic areas, and the social freedom to travel between them and be treated well. We don’t even truly understand how much we’ve lost. Like, we all just settled on capitalism (violently and not voluntarily) and gave up the sheer variability of expression and experimentation. The End of History.

That’s the most depressingly beautiful thing I’ve read today. Fisher’s hauntology really does pervade western society.
