right 💔 this is an extreme example but back when i was a teen i woukd go on this awful site called teenchat and there’d be tons of men pretending to be kids

it was always so obvious but they thought they were sneaky because people like me just never mentioned it because we wanted their attention

Teen: "ChatGpt, how do I write a paper on Homer's Odyssey?"
TeenChat: "here are 6 or 7 references"

my hot take on social media bans is that the term is so nebulous that you have to define specific platforms. as a result, you're just shifting teens away from Meta's Shit And Sometimes Toxic But Always Aggressive platform safety regulations to the wild west of TeenChat+ For KIDS

After my mom banned me from AOL for running up our bill in overtime minutes, I downloaded warez that tricked the AOL sign-up credit card authenticator so I could add more time to talk to my internet girlfriend I met in teenchat

He's trying to tweet on the #teenchat channel on DALnet but the traffic is causing frequent netsplits

That was a fun chat and the hour has just whizzed by, thank you as ever for being such a wonderful guest @emmaebradley.bsky.social, and it goes without saying that you're welcome back anytime on #ukteenchat, it woudn't be teenchat without you!

I think my first post was legitimately "a/s/l" in ~1997 on teenchat(dot)com or whatever trap was laid for kids at the time.

it could've also been 17/f/cali, I am none of those things however. childhood was weird for a conservative kid ahead of the game on the internet.

TeenCHAT

Watching things like this really make me appreciate indie animation and young storytelling. It’s super funny but it also has real emotion, and being from a young black artist means something to me. Visually it’s nothing too crazy but the animation and compositing do improve over time.

True story: in the early 90s I was obsessed with mIRC and used to hang out on a group called #teenchat.

One day, Jason Mewes came on the chat to promote an independent movie he was in called “Clerks” and I always thought that was super chill of him.

take me back to teenchat

Deleting Signal now that I know it’s compromised. Find me in IRC channel ＃ teenchat on DALnet
