I want you to post I wouldn't call it a chan because it's a huge departure from Futaba imageboards and has different goals;
it's a glorified guestbook that cuts through posts to find the best ones to feature on goeshard.org

This is a thread for discussing, link sharing, gossiping about, and advertising forum websites ...
My favorite forums are old, but old can have downsides. A lot of times the community will have changed a lot from the past (Something Awful) or the users will be really bitter about the fate of their communities (&totse). From a new user's perspective, old can also mean more impenetrable.
Perhaps the best forums are just the ones that are so niche and the users are so fixated that its impossible for their core idenity to be lost.
I prefer forums that don't have huge documents of rules and mission statements, but that's a personal preference.
Here is Something Awful in 2004

Feel free to post links to or gossip about other forums.

it will get more visibility if you include an image.
It's pretty funny to mention these forums together since they are diametrically opposed philosophically but cover similar subject matter, especially relating to nostalgia for the old Internet.
I used to post on both, although I don't log in to Melonland much anymore. It's artistically interesting and worth a visit. But the whole site is positively infested by furries. To his credit, Melon never banned me for not fitting in, but I eventually awoke to realize that there wasn't much point to staying.
Agora Road is a lot more free. You can feel in every interaction that it's more natural communication compared to Melonland, which always feels like you have eyes evaluating how positive and happy you are. And even if no one steps in and removes you, which I can respect that, you feel bad for not shooting sunshine and rainbows out of your ass everyday. You know for yourself if that is something you're into or not. If that's you, no shame in it. It was made for you.
This is why Agora is ultimately my preferred nostalgia forum, although I think Melon is a great web artist. Agora is also infested with its own undesirable elements, like post-4chan retardation, a lot of religious users is a thing (not a problem exactly but), for some reason there is always someone who wants to mention femboys; but it's easy to just ignore the people that you don't want to talk to and only participate in threads that you do. Because of the relative freedom, Agora has a reputation that doesn't really match what the site is.
This is the best example I've seen of a modernized old forum.
At some point they switched to discourse.

I never knew about the old one but it's pretty neat that they've been around for so long and someone's been holding it together and keeping people posting in an on topic way.
Very much an effort posting forum.
You can poke around on the old one, too.

The site no longer exists but it spawned a child forum, zoklet.
That forum died, and it spawned a child, NiS. https://niggasin.space
I probably wouldn't have started with racial jokes in the title of the forum since it seems the effect is that people rarely post unless they are shitposting. But overall I like the freedom of the place and its a window into the world that used to be totse.com. I believe that's part of their identity anyway: formerly being an information resource for taboo topics, and now just being composed of shit posters that know each other from the past.
There's also this one, although I haven't looked at it much: https://newtotse.com/

literally a porn site with forums, up since 1998
the whole forum went behind a paywall last month
it used to be funny because you could go all the way back to 1999 and looking at what porn sharing culture looked like back then. it's probably not worth paying for though.
it's a variant of the concept that doesn't have a specific outcome that most variants imagine.
You can read about them here if you scroll down https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerationism
This is not from a standard left or right set of desires for some outcomes, but more of nihilistic, "okay destroy everything then, idc"

> I'm not really a believer in accelerationism but it's interesting.
I'm not smart enough to understand it. It's just intellectual babble from people that think they can predict the future. Maybe it is interesting but probably a good idea to not take it 100% seriously.

These things are really good. They can make all vegetable dishes more appealing. You can use them instead of cheese for many things. It's healthy as fuck. I can't think of a single better thing that is as good for you.

There's no feeling quite like being out in nature, unwashed, for several days, and then finally getting a nice long shower and washing off days of grime

This would actually be really helpful. People would travel to these spots though so there would have to be a lot of them.
I started drinking this blue raspberry sparkling water to quit soda. But then I learned that most fake sugar doesn't really stop you from getting fat anyway. Now I just drink it every now and then because the blue raspberry flavor is so good.
fun fact, there is no such thing as blue raspberry
A large portion of artificial flavors in drinks seems to be the exact flavorings they use in flavored vodkas. The taste makes me gag because I used to drink all those stupid vodkas. (Mainly because they came in the really little bottles and I could only afford those at the time lol). I have the same issue with anything I used as mixers a lot. Even though there isn't alcohol in them, my brain still fills in the blanks and I subconsciously taste cheap vodka or whiskey haha
Nowadays I mostly drink water and coffee. I'll sometimes have a polar seltzer at a friend's house if that's what they have.

This is exactly what happens to me if I try to drink cherry flavored anything.
I just taste robitussin from my days of abusing that.
Sober life FTW
Coffee, energy drinks, weed drinks, and Dr. Pepper. Life is delicious

thanks you too, appreciated
I watched the latest episode of South Park. It talks about censorship of American media with lawsuits. But they did say "retarded faggot" several times in the episode. Some people on the right like restricting free speech as much as the left.
It feels like, the left used to defend everyone from censorship that was coming from religious right. But then they got so impotent and focused on stupid things like egg shells of autistic transexuals and now they're not there doing the thing you need them for.
The UK is basically a muslim country at this point, so this really isn't surprising
This is not a shitpost. Let's talk about these dentures. You never think about it when you see the portrait of the famous general that defeated the British but he had cyborg teeth.

Here is some legit properly sourced writing by actual historians about his teeth.

Askhistorians is one of the best places to search about history. The mods delete absolutely everything unless properly academic and sources can be cited either in original comment or upon request.
I got not much to say besides to share the link. Bit the good news is Washington could take them out and give the best blowjobs. He sucked like a champ.
apparently it was taught that he had wooden teeth for years but they eventually decided that wasn't true.
>>0x000001

>George Washington ... had at least four sets of dentures he used throughout his life. Made with brass, lead, gold, animal teeth and human teeth
It is kind of crazy to think that the first President was chomping his meals with the teeth from animals and other people
even crazier that there was an entire market for affluent people to buy peoples teeth and then it wouldn't be trivial to get them into a contraption that can go in your mouth without damaging your mouth. I'm pretty sure people that had to do this did get their mouthes damaged from it.

So what you're saying is that a modern day George Washington would have been a juice guy
Hello goeshard,
I have recently broken up with my girlfriend of just over 2 years, as I realized that I want to focus on my own growth and be able to move and pursue a career freely. This is the third (and final) time I've broken up with her, and I don't intend to pursue romance again for a while, if ever.
I already miss her, and it's hard to realize that I'll never get to hug her, hold her, and just be with her again. I still love her, and it hurts how much I broke her heart too.
Do y'all have any advice to move on?
>>0x000006
> I don't really understand, can you elaborate?
Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems better to have agency, to be the one making the choices and living with them. Also, better to end it with mutual understanding, "You're going away for school, sad but understandable," than, "Oh yeah, sorry, I've been cheating on you with 20 guys. My bad."
If she was supposed to be the one, you're going to regret this decision forever
Good luck in college!
