₊˚⊹ — Do you store your internet-things offline? (Or physically)?

I couldn’t think of a better way to word that, so that’s what we’re going with. What I meant is: do you store your favourite movies on discs? Do you download mp3s of your favourite albums? Do you have usb-drives with photos on them? Do you have downloads of all your favourite content?

If not, why? I can see reasons being things like “I have nothing to store”, or, “I can’t afford things like a disc burner or usb-drive”.

That being said, I really hope (on a personal level, rather than logical…) that none of your reasons are “There’s no point, it’s stored online?”

If you truly have nothing you care about, this could make sense. But I’m assuming that doesn’t apply to a lot of you. I’ve asked questions in the past, that YOU’VE answered that tells me otherwise.

You’re the ones who told me that the things you like are important to you.

So why not store them? Who cares if “it isn’t that important”? Honestly, in my opinion, having a disc full of your favourite gacha game cards is better than no disc at all.

If you still don’t feel like it’s necessary… why not? And if you do already store things physically, what lead you to do so?

₊˚⊹ — do you selectively answer asks? (+ if applicable: why do you follow people even when you don't ever answer their asks?)

if you say 'no, i don't selectively answer asks', i'd say it's likely you're... lying. but who knows, maybe you selectively follow people who's questions you know you want to see... that's a pretty smart thing to do— though, for some reason, i get the feeling a lot of you don't do that.

but this is an ask website? so why would you follow someone other than for their asks...?
well, as some of you may have noticed (believe it or not), a lot of people use retrospring as the typical social media, using
'all asks' to essentially make personal posts, rather than things you can actually answer. with that being true, it's not very surprising people just follow each other for social-esq reasons,,, you know? so, if you're someone who does, why would you follow someone even when you don't answer their asks?

ets say you do answer their asks, whether this be because you simply answer all asks, or rather because you follow people strictly to answer
their asks: i am sure even now, there are certain asks you simply don't answer. maybe ones worded a certain way, or ones pertaining a certain topic. or something you just find generic!

are there any chosen sets of reasons you don't answer asks? are there specific types of individual asks you don't answer? or maybe certain types of people you don't answer asks from?

(i know a lot of you will say you don't answer asks that 'belong on twitter' or aren't actual questions. so if you intend on saying that, i
have a follow up just for you: are there any kind of direct asks you don't answer?)

(also, 'to see their answers' is a very valid reason to follow someone (even if you don't answer their asks)) —
