Hey man, tell you what- you keep your corpo-shilling somewhere else and I’ll keep my ‘sarcastic non-comments that attack people and add nothing to the discussion’ elsewhere. Deal?

And to add something to the discussion- without FB crazy uncles will no longer be actively receiving the kind of insanely targeted shit that comes with FB. Sure, they’ll get some targeted shit other places but FB is on a crazy level far and above most everyone else in that field. Everything else they’ll have to look for more. And a lot of people won’t do that because that’s extra work they’re not used to. Less people will be radicalized by The Algorithm.

Oh, great. I was really hoping we left all the pseudo-intellectual corpo-shills in the speddit botscape.

I mean… When they’re all the same size and that size is huge and impossible to miss? Yeah. Looking at you Mass Effect.

I can’t tell you how much I love that Denmark has hillbillys who drive hatchbacks and are called fuckin’ Brian as a slur.

“Consciousness” is not a multitude instances of which you have one of, it’s something singular that has you.

We are all the same weird mirror rippling through space-time trying to figure out how to outfox entropy.

I think that claiming these thoughts are political views is a political view.

Ahh, yes, of course. Forgot about that. I graduated 2010 so that wasn’t really on my radar at the time.

Another favorite was “no flat billed hats”. I’m realizing now a lot of it had a very “we don’t want gangs. Well, all rappers are gangsters, let’s watch some hip hop music videos and just rule out everything they wear” vibe.

eh. sick or not, way i see it if consenting adult double-john jr. and his consenting adult sister peppercorn jr. wanna have a freaky roll in the hay under the harvest moon, it ain’t my place to judge and it certainly ain’t my business.

now if double-john is tryina fuck their horse, bodacious baby belle, that’s a very different story.

I wish I could remember the specifics but my high school had an extremely ridiculous dress code policy at one point. Mostly targeting girls, of course, but also had weird shit like “no large/long coats.”

What I do remember perfectly though, is that a friend of mine and I, angrily pouring over the details of the stupid dress code, realized that capes were perfectly fine according to the code as written. So we both got huge capes and that was like a whole year of high school.

I cannot wait to one day be able to play Subnautica in VR. Wanting it makes me feel psychotic though because that games scares the shit bejeezus right off my socks.

i remember glancing over an interesting article about this. it was saying that this whole step-fad doesn’t really have anything to do with the person being related to you, it’s more about the taboo. the attraction isn’t the relation, it’s that it’s taboo to be attracted to them at all.

and something about the perceived pre-existing relationship adding to the sense of intimacy and taboo-ness, can’t really remember the details there.

there was more about how other taboos have become over saturated in the industry and this one is in this sweet spot of not too taboo for your average person.

i now wish i’d saved this article, but i truly never thought i would need to recall this information.

Lower Decks is absurdly good. It hits that sweet parody spot that only people who really love the source material can pull off. Can’t believe how much I’ve ended up loving that show.
