Modern peoples don't understand that if you saw one of those yellow Sony Walkmen or a translucent beeper as a kid, you entered a trance state and communed with a deity who existed very briefly from 1988 to 1993

there was a brief resurgence in the 2000s that allowed postcognition with the deity

Getting one of those see-through Gameboys was basically the same thing as whatever the fuck God did to Hildegard von Bingen

Illuminated manuscript art of Hildegard von Bingen, a nun, sitting with a tablet as something from the heavens reaches down to probe her mind. It looks kinda like a squid or some sort of holy handful of Twizzlers.
