found a blog i hadn't stumbled onto before that has in-depth analyses of every x-files episode and spent the entire afternoon reading them and it is fucking wild that stuff like this is more or less all the internet used to be and a good 80% of what i used it for

The good old days. If you were a Xena fan between 1996 and 2002, this website was probably your bible: whoosh.org. Before there were wikis, sites like this were so important.

Please share!

okay i'm gonna regret asking this but mind sharing a link? (i vividly remember a "mulder's terrible ties" webpage from like 1997)

Anything about The X-Files has got to be a banger

alt fan xfiles forever.

I long for the days when all I wanted to do on The Internet was to find tidbits about the first new Star Wars movie in decades and also whatever scraps of information I could find about the weird manga tie in to one of my favorite arcade games. Or watch movie trailers on the QuickTime site.

remember that? when it was just stuff to read for free instead of a zippo lighter that you compulsively flick and misery comes out?

I would not say no to that url…

My husband bought me a book of all the X-Files episodes, as reviewed by Zack Handlen and Todd VanDerwerff. One year we rewatched the series along with the companion book and it was so fun.

Aw hell yeah! I miss this kind of Internet. Also, if you have the link for that blog, I feel like spending a weekend deep-diving into old X-Files memories now.
