how this dumpster fire started
a completely accurate account of events
The Joke Begins
Created by supex during night shifts at a care home. Sleep-deprived, caffeinated, absolutely certain this would go nowhere. It was mostly a file uploader and some bad CSS. It went somewhere.
The Duct Tape Era
A real website now exists. It is held together with hope, Stack Overflow answers, and the audacity of a man who has not slept properly in months. December brings user profiles, meme generation, and file uploads. Monster Energy intake: critical.
The Dark Times
Site works. Barely. UI looks like it was designed by a caffeinated raccoon at 4am. Still running. Still held together by duct tape and StackOverflow copy-paste. Genuinely ugly but somehow loveable. Most of the team is discovering the concept of sleep deprivation.
The Final Form
Complete gut-and-rebuild. BetterAuth replaces passport spaghetti. Self-hosted CDN kills Cloudinary dependency. Tailwind everywhere. Actual admin dashboard. NSFW moderation because apparently we needed that. Still unmistakably unhinged — just polished unhinged now.
