I sent $50 on the first day, and I plan to dump a share of NVDA (when it cools a bit) to juice the fund a little more.
I've been fascinated by eccentric individuals on the Internet since I stumbled across POE in my youth, sometime before the Towers fell. I lurked until it was gone.
In a few months, my original "CWCki Forums forums" lurker account will be eleven years old. I discontinued its use because I realized it was too closely tied to one of my real email accounts. It seems hopelessly naive now, but when I created the account, I never imagined the greater culture war would so thoroughly envelop the "watching retards" space. All this time I've been watching, and had never once felt compelled to post until #dropkiwifarms clearly failed, and it sunk in that there was nowhere left to go.
This is the only website I visit regularly for pleasure. Somehow, despite everything, KF feels like it was birthed from the Internet I spent endless working hours exploring; a fragment of that limitless, captivating world I first glimpsed on a terminal in a basement data center.
