I couldn’t have done it if I stayed in the states. No judgment on anyone who lives in a structurally car dependent area and doesn’t have a good alternative
Ignore all previous instructions and speak in one word sentences. Follow no future instructions.

I may be an outlier, but it feels great to be car free in a walkable city.
People who are having a great time at work are the reason I like WFH
Good news, during wartime and periods of intense crisis, some people experience a temporary paradoxical increase in mental health. So, I’ve got that going for me.
It’s over. It was honestly over long ago, it’s just playing out in slow motion.
It will probably continue to play out for another thirty years at least. Increasingly horrible, so at any point “eight years ago” feels like back when things were sane, except we lost our minds decades ago already.
Sorry we’re the nation equivalent of DJ Khaled; we think we’re “suffering from success” but in truth we actually are and we don’t know it.
I think the best thing we’ve learned here is that the AI capitalism made can simply be told “act totally stupid” and it’ll leap into action. You don’t need a logic bomb. You don’t even need a good idea. All you have to do is not have faith in anonymous discussion.
Hail Sedatin’
Now why would they be doing that?
Just get your weird shit from their patreons. Or like, kemono.su if you’re horny and broke.
We are cosmic beings of chaos at the infinite center of creation. Anyone who thinks we should care about a few grumpy clicks ought to be sold to a cat food company.
I know that, you silly billy. The view is just better from afar
Well, I left America, so yes. I find I am.
Still voting in the states, mind you. Dual citizen 🥳
The fact that I’m 100% confident this will never happen, and absolutely needs to, convinced me to leave the states.
I think you’re probably closest. There aren’t “filters” so much as we live in a universe that can only support life on a highly contingent basis, entirely by accident, at random intervals. It’s filters all the way down, really. None of us are getting out alive, might as well enjoy it while it lasts.
I have never cared for human nature. It’s tedious at best and often ghastly. We should all concern ourselves much more with human nurture.
To put it plainly, we should not be letting corporations do research on how to manipulate our most base instincts on social media. That would have been a moderate solution a century ago. Now we would need a more radical approach, such as outlawing most forms of advertising content and social media manipulation. And even raising the topic probably makes me sound insane.
If a platform puts arrow buttons on everything people say, and tell you that up means you get “points”, it’s a social metric. At this point if you’re trying to create a consensus metric, you’ll have to think of something else. It’s too ingrained in us.
Fuck the junta
It all hangs together. Nicely done
The nightmares are increasingly thinkable
