Aye - they're a recent-ish homebrew project - probably barely fifty in existence
A photo of a PowerBook 500 from 1994 running System 7.5.something with an AirTalk icon selected in the chooser, and a list of modern wireless networks to connect to, and out from behind the PowerBook is an AirTalk module which does LocalTalk over WiFi.
Pic from last March, but here have some of the fun of GlobalTalk.
Appletalk networks, routed across the planet, with zones just about anywhere. And here on a PowerBook 500 series, with an AirTalk adaptor for wireless localtalk bridged to my router Q605 out to others on the GlobalTalk network.
It's past midnight and I just spent far too long laughing at this title.

Ask me how high I am right now.
Despite the title it is, at heart, an album about FFS.
A digital doodle of an Isopod, with text to the right of it reading: THIS IS AN IPOD
absolute dictionary definition of glow-up.
*validation intensifies*
Let us scare all the people!
Same…
If I wore my hair like this I would appear 6’10”
It would genuinely end in tears but the *want* being there is in itself something to celebrate :)
I shan’t. Knees are absolutely fucked. But then maybe they’ll feel better soon too. Who knows?! It all feels possible.
I think I want to run.
I’m feeling good - like really properly *good*. So many little things just moving bit by bit towards resolving. Like I can breathe now - I can breathe in fast, without it hurting.
I didn’t know it *was* hurting until it stopped.
A 3D rendering of a Macintosh IIfxs with its slimline case, trinitron CRT on top, container of pencils to its left and on the right a set of 2 shaped objects being a beige plaster arch and a white stonecrete wave shape, a pad with writing on it, Apple branded pencil, a potplant in a copper planter, and a donut with white glaze and sprinkles on. On the screen is another Apple product design leaflet being edited.
An older render - a Macintosh IIfx2 in its slimmer pizzabox-style case with a set of 2 shaped objects.
Ahhhh ahhh ahhhhh
*runs screaming*
AHHHHHHHHHH!!
(Very neat and I am glad there is print in nerd culture but I would lose that in the setup sheets bin on day 1 ;)
This is my whole body from one end to another. I suspect if I pushed too hard on that I’d have to go back for a recall and remanufacture or replacement.

Are you sure you’re worrying enough about that thing? You could probably be worrying some more if you were a bit more conscientious - that’d get you up to worrying a respectable amount about that thing everyone else is concerned about too.
Considering ogorki are usually submerged in vinegar, at least we know it's Sans Oxygène.
A piece of 1-bit pixel art at 512x342 pixels in size, depicting a wacked-out image showing the giant number "2026" floating in space over a piece of "Globaltalk" text with an Apple logo next to it. Various spacy shit is around the piece, like a nebula behind, a planet with rings, a small black hole, a whole bunch of stylised magnetar lines, clouds, rocks, and black bubbles of possibly vacuum decay. it's signed in the bottom right corner by me, 'nanoraptor'
Figure it's been long enough for globaltalk folk to have the actual image exclusively. Here, straight-up bitmap for joy.

me tapping away a rhythm with a couple of polski ogorki on the desk, realising what i am doing and deciding i am Pickle Jarre.
yeah, mine are 99% blind spot.... aura traveling to the outside of my vision... a pause... and either days of pain or pain-free and floaty endorphin-like buzz after.
the ester scent is a funny precursor - a third of them maybe, and just one or two sniffs of 'oh that's.... jam!'
aye! mine's #3 mostly, a bit more constrained in size and really fine-grained near the middle of my vision where they start, going fatter splashes of colour towards the edge. all shimmery and glittery.
This was my simulation of it halfway through progression.

migraine brokeflow
1. smell an ester type scene, strongly, just for a bit.
2. scintillating triangles begin flickering in the aura
3. pain-free migraine goes into a post-aura floaty endorphin vibe

That moment when you fangirl a customer just cos she has an epic classic sf lead character’s name but hold back cos you KNOW she’s heard it all before.
If I asked you to guess it, at least a third would be bang on first go.
