Sad

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

The entire internet is being reinvented to cater to misinformation, revisionist history, and AI generated click bait.

I feel for my son's kids when they are trying to figure out what's a Ras Kass

Read a lot of great stories on the Puff/Shyne trial around 2001

and followed the Beanie Sigel trial coverage in 2003/2004

There's a paper trail within those articles, thus why the website went dark. When I was reading about puffys former cases and etc, I noticed the cuff off date went as far as 2015ish. There's a shift in media because the powers that be has a hand in the cookie jar of something deeper than music.

This is bad for the country to be honest. I almost feel like the government should just buy the archives and preserve it (digitally) in the Library Of Congress.
