  Oh yeah? Prove it!

  I have people who love me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Let my Duolingo streak expire cos I don't want to give them any more AI training for free and this popped up 🙄⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly why I stopped so using it so quickly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone else⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sadly they also aren’t real. Probably.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone else⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My dream is for The Culture to stop by for a visit. They just scan everything and make digital copies of the entire civilization’s total output, become fans of our TV shows, dance to our music, read our books, learn our entire history, then disguise themselves as humans to come down to see the real thing for themselves, view our natural wonders, party hard, and do little things to help us fix ourselves.

  Yep. My dad believes you can cure a venomous snake bite, ANY species, by giving yourself an electric shock, preferably from a spark plug. Works equally effectively (it doesn’t work, don’t bother) for literally any insect bite. He also believes witches are eating babies in the forest nearby. Needless to say, he doesn’t understand evolution either. He falls for scams left and right, always has.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨i broke⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks, I needed that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are we all suffering from "future shock" in 2025?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Same here. Grew up deep in the South. Kids got in trouble for racist talk in public school.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Clean butt⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Soon. Soon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I actually plan to buy the latest print encyclopedia I can find. Just in case. Fuck them trying to kill everything good on the internet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ONE OF US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Look, I’m sure in the year 1985 you can get plutonium at the local drug store, but in 1955 it’s a bit hard to come by!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok whatever.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t believe you have the guts to admit when you’re wrong and change your mind. So why waste any more time with you?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No, it isn’t.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  LoL ok.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No, the market does not give a flying fuck about justice. That’s why we have a government.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’ve had this explained to you endlessly already. Because the point of sociwty isn’t to root for bad businesses failing. It’s to ensure the just treatment of all people. You just don’t care about that because you care more about pretending to be superior than about building an actual society.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  We had that. Now the racists are in charge, they’re burning it all down and proppjng pathetically incompetent white conservatives. The experiment already ran for centuries in this country, and clearly demonstrated the idiocy of racism. But bigots never get sick of trying it again. Racist businesses will fail, yet again. What about that are you not understanding?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Because race is irrelevant. Bigotry is not.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Because for bigots, racism trumps profits.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Enshittification⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  DEI ensured that qualified minorities could not legally be passed over by racists in favor of UNqualified whites, as clearly you are. I would never offer you a job.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Murica⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There didn’t use to be so many days over 100F in FL. And there didn’t use to be so many warm days in the dead of winter in North Dakota.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Not real... *for now*⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, that’s certainly one way to reduce our screen time. I’ve got shelves of neglected books that need attention.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'll care when I work for a co-op that is equally owned by all the workers.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yet comparing all socialism to the Soviet Union is exactly what you did.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sun God⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Damn, that’s a great idea. I gotta go back and finish that series.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'll care when I work for a co-op that is equally owned by all the workers.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Let me guess. Post-Russian? Don’t blame communism for Russia’s glaring flaws.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Murica⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not anymore, no. They used to be quite uncommon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Murica⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, that is largely caused by cars.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Did William Burrito Mean by This?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They want slaves.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Patch this Bish!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d like to reengineer the mosquito to draw blood samples, identify viruses, then create and spread vaccinations.
