Man, you guys really know how to kick a guy when he's down. Time to grind for enough of a living to dissociate into the past! Goodbye cruel reality!

Before Steam, a video game was a piece of paper.

Steam was launched in September 2003.

Karaoke Revolution for Xbox (released November 2004) is on the shelf in this picture.

Yeah, I have distinct memories of going into Toys R Us in the late90s/early 00s and they had actual Dreamcast/N64/PS1 games on the shelves

The dream I had last night (and have been contemplating the moral of since I woke) was a bittersweet understanding that in life, we make bonds with people that eventually may be lost or fade and dissolve as we grow, but everyone eventually moves on.

the world you were in last week doesn't exist, the world you woke up in this morning doesn't exist, and so on

And the future has already been stolen from us.
