Being in Ohio, but not being on this app all that often, I'm just now seeing the whole "You need to verify you are an adult to have access to all of our features!"
Anybody else in a religiously oppressive state that is dealing with this have a take?
Something something something survivor bias something.
Lay offs are terrible and should never happen, but this feels like how capitalism was always going to end--a bunch of ignorant folks at the top desperately looking for short term gains listening to the hype from sycophants.
Uoroboros completes the cycle and there's no more tail to eat. AI for sure.
I'm really uncertain on how I feel about this. The tech company I work for is doing the same thing all the while I've been telling them the results are *not* going to be longitudinally profitable; maybe not even in a single year.
But this feels like the inevitability, the rise and fall of NFTs.
Once, when I was still in grade school, I asked my mom for more Bagel Bites. Incredulously, she asked why they were all gone when she had just bought them three days ago--when was I hungry to be eating them AND dinner?
I told her I had been eating them for breakfast.
"Why?!"
"When pizza's on..."
Yessss, but also with serrano because winter and that's just how I like most things.
Fr. I've got a spouse. Technically, she is my wife. But the words "wife," "husband," feel intimate to me, so I didn't really like using them in public. Consistently, though, when I did, folks automatically assumed "spouse" for me meant "husband; gay." Cover is needed and useful.
It's truly amazing how limited our minds are--this being a great example. Forget their dumb ass, we don't even initially think, "Hey, how expensive is a burger in a place with higher wages, like Europe?" Instead, we stay on point and argue with the fallacy like dumbasses.
Ooooh. Been a long time since I've been on one of these!
I can not imagine. Is it an op? Is it a joke?
How do you tell what block lists you on?
Holy shit I hate sciatica.
Can we make beds and desks and chairs and screens and jobs and etc. where we can just stop sitting all day long and having to do so in the most damaging ways possible? Please?

Would it surprise you if I said I already did consider it?
I'm just here for friends and good vibes. I was lucky enough to have my answers years ago.
Iunno what the numbers are for folks hanging out in the comments, but I hope I don't skew them too much. 😝
I mean, if it does, yeah. If it doesn't, nah?
Why become girl when I can just Be Me?
I take a purple one for heartburn, but I ain't got a single idea what I'd be taking be taking the pink/blue one for!
I refuse and you can't make me.
I will definitely cheer from the sidelines while reality apocalyptically tears apart in the way we all know it should.
18,207? Why?
Yeah, I mean this would definitely be taste dependent. If sleeping with a trans woman was no longer some sort of *thing,* why not brag about how hot her breasts were? Doesn't necessarily have to focus on the dick, yeah?
Lol. Never heard of it. BlueSky is nice, though.
It is awesomeness, put into bite size Rogue-Lite narratives for your enjoyment.
Wait, is y'all talking down to me a *thing?* Like, can we cash in?
Oh, are you ever in for a treat (assuming you're into the sort of feel good humor this story utilizes)!
I mean...I might watch both?
Anything to drive that man's ghost deeper into a hell only he imagined
Holy shit, YES.
I swear, I'm infinitely more suspicious of folks who have an adverse reaction to the idea of just punching Nazis now than I was right years ago. Something about rhetoric and logical fallacies and...
Buuuuut, what if I *DID*?
