NOTICE
I do not currently have accounts on Xitter, Facebook, Reddit, or YouTube.
If you see "badgraph1csghost" there (with the numeral 1 instead of the lowercase i), it is not me!
Also, my email address always ends in "@protonmail.com", never "@gmail.com" or anything that is not "@protonmail.com"!

Furthermore, I have only ever done narration tracks for the pages on this website. If you hear my voice on any other site, then what you heard was an illicit AI-generated simulacrum.

Lesbian pride flag pin. I'm in a relationship with the greatest girl in the world! Another Lesbian pride flag pin.

Tina Badgraph1csghost ❤️

She completes me and I love her so much! We have the best kind of relationship: we're girlfriends who started out as regular friends. That's why I can never understand when men complain about "the friend zone", like it's some kind of bad thing. Aren't friends important? Don't you want to have a buddy you can just kick back and play some Mario Kart with?

I'm Tina. My namesake is another strong independent woman by that name. You probably know her. She wears a barrette. My favourite thing about myself is that I can revert to 1996-level technology without breaking stride.

I'm a composer, graphic designer, former voiceover artist (fuck AI voice duplication for real), Firefox enthusiast, owner of a hacked Nintendo 3DS, and developer of the most boring HTML you'll ever see. Not that it's a problem; this is how websites looked back in the day, you know.

I always wanted to be a computer genius when I was a kid. I didn't think it would be because I was the only one in a room of 10 people who had any computer literacy at all. Phones are rotting our minds, but not in the way conservative boomers say they are. Kids need computers—they're good for the bank account and the soul! Chromebooks are not computers.

I was wearing a facemask before it was cool, to keep Little Jeffy Bezos and his tangle of toadies out of my gotdang business. I never subscribed to Ring; who says I consented to let Ring associate a face with these ample proportions? No giant, multinational corporation's going to know it when I walk out of the store with an armful of boxaroni-and-cheese.

Take it from a certifiable paranoid freak—billionaires know your face, your name, your habits, your car, your dog, your tits, your house, where you are, what you're doing, and where you've been every minute of every day. Fuck "space aliens"—this is the real reason for the Tinfoil Hat Convention. What's next, Tesla Orbital Mind Control Lasers? Those lasers can zap Elon's dick clean off before they ever get a piece of this.

Most of my writing skill comes from Roxy Wolosenko, a designer working on The Sims. I loved how sarcastic her catalogue descriptions would get, how she would name stuff after random Maxis staffers and make tongue-in-cheek references to office intrigue that no one outside Maxis would understand. Others have imitated her, but none have succeeded. I always try to sound as much like her as possible whenever I make new stuff in the game... any game, even TS2 and TS3. Since lot descriptions can be longer in The Sims 4, I usually try to write a Roxy there, too... but I haven't been very successful. I don't know why. Maybe The Sims 4 doesn't spark the same joy as its great-grandma did.

When I'm not here, I'm there. Possibly somewhere else. Usually maintaining some website or another for a non-profit organisation. It ain't much, but it's honest work. I love all of my computers, and I'll say without shame that I talk to computers the same way Captain Janeway talks to Voyager—so many people hit their computers and yell at them when things go wrong, but computers are basically piles of rare-earth minerals that we've tricked into doing our bidding by opening and closing logic gates really fast. You wouldn't yell at your children for misinterpreting your instructions, why yell at your computer? That having been said; Alexa isn't a friend, she's a spy, vigilantly monitoring your activities and reporting back to Little Jeffy Beez-and-sneeze. Like I said before, ain't no corporate feudal monitoring machine gonna hear what I'm talking about in the privacy of my own home.

If you follow me on Tumblr, you probably already know where I live, but this is a different website, a different web host, with different people on it. All I'm prepared to say is that I'm a white american living on territory stolen from the Pawnee. Whether we have slaveholders, military officers, or politicians in our direct ancestry or not, all white americans share responsibility for the atrocities that are the enslavement of African people, the conquering of indigenous peoples, and the erasure of this country's native cultures. Know whose land you're on.

That's about all the intimately-personal info I'm prepared to share with the world. Here now, some lists of generalities that could easily apply to 100 million other people.

Questionnaires

I saw a couple other people I follow doing questionnaires, so I decided to do it too. After all, why not? I had to rewrite a couple of questions in burypink's questionnaire because I couldn't answer them for whatever reason.

Parles-tu français?
Ouais. Pas trés bien, et sans raison particulière.

What do I want to be when I grow up?
I'd like to be a certified Bob Ross instructor and teach people how to paint happy, little clouds and big, strong mountains.

Why am I on Neocities?
Because I used to have a website back in high school and I need to get back into HTML coding by hand. Also, I used to write in long-form all the time before I joined Tumblr, then I stopped. The corporate feudal state's antithesis is a population that enjoys to write and can code their own websites without help (just the occasional case study 😉).

Why "badgraph1csghost"?
One fine day in 2014, I decided I was changing my tumblr name too much, so I decided to find something I would never feel like changing. The timelessness of obscure Strong Bad Email references being what it is, I decided on "badgraphicsghost", after the ghost made of green fullwidth blocks that the ghost of the Tandy 400 used to scare Strong Bad and The Cheat. Except, at the time, "badgraphicsghost" (with a lower-case i) was taken, so I settled for "badgraph1csghost" (with a numeral 1) instead. This also created continuity with my previous username, "1nflatable-hammers". Calling myself the same thing on all the different websites was easier than constantly having to remember 16 different usernames. I'm currently known as badgraph1csghost on...
Neocities
Nekoweb
Tumblr
Internet Archive
Wikipedia
Proton
Ko-Fi
...and was also known by it on Cohost, pre-Elon Twitter, ModTheSims, Patreon, Bandcamp, and itch.io.

What part of this website was made with AI?
NO PART. "AI", as in "artificial intelligence", doesn't exist. It's all smoke and mirrors that trustfunder startup CEOs came up with to create the illusion of tech savvy for infinite profits. I actually have skills, so I use them. Every song, every graphic, every block of text, every line of code on this website was created by a human being. In most cases, 1 human being: me.
