Figured would toss these on here as I’m both lazy and a disaster, but here you go (these are ancient history fwiw, when I was 9). Shouldn’t have any triggering/sad shit (didn’t screenshot, basically) but may as well share 9 year old me’s glorious basedness:

    I- good point. Admittedly I’ve no idea what OCR is but perhaps. Anyone looking to delve into my shit isn’t going to find anything impressive FWIW (or even much to wreck if they found anything) but I should look into that stuff just to be better about it all the same. Looking it up- I could replace the top one with text, idk? Though feel that kinda makes the post less satisfying appearing to me (discrepancy)

    Maybe I could .jpg it up like all hell lol

      OCR is “optical character recognition”. You give a photo of text (like the ones that you posted) to a computer program, and it prints out the text.

      If you’re on Linux, a good OCR program is Tesseract. I’ve personally used it to turn scans of old manuals into searchable PDFs, but it also can just print out the recognized text as plain text.
