resharing one of my fav collections of posts on the site

@lmichet's "interesting link" tag is a truly INCREDIBLE collection of internet esoterica, if you pine for the old days when there were a ton of strange websites that you could get lost in for hours this is absolutely THE tag to read https://cohost.org/lmichet/tagged/interesting%20link

my absolute fav from this tag is the "freighter cruises" site which is now so pared-down post covid you kind of can only get the good stuff on archive.org. Their whole business model is trying to convince people that staying in a guest room on a shipping freighter for months and months on end is a cruise. The testimonials are fucking astonishing. You'll have to dig around but at one point a guest relates their ship being attacked by pirates.

i've actually thought about doing something like that in the past because it seemed interesting, but for real, i'd probably cap out at three weeks and would not under any circumstances be under the impression that i was "on a cruise". i'd be on a container ship. it would feel like i was camping. that would be the point.
