Things are going to get real fucky.
Those in power will be unable to trust each other and their employees even less. We may end up living where we work.
Diseases will be widespread, and no care will be offered to anyone but the privileged.
Famine, likely entirely manufactured, will cause massive amounts of starvation.
Modern conveniences will be slowly lost. Cars will be falling apart because no one can afford mechanics, and the lack of vehicle regulations leads to excessive accidents.
Planes will break up midaire. Widespread blackouts when shit goes sideways. Forget about medicine.
Waterways will be polluted beyond what can be boiled. Breathing in big cities will be hazardous. They will say “efficiency” but not one instance of efficiency will be observable.
Kids showing academic excellence will be abducted and sent to special indoctrination schools so that they can only benefit the regime.
Women will have rights removed. All men will have to do a two year duty in war. Church attendance will be reported to the government.
I have more ideas but I’ll stop there
- Comment on Nudify app’s plan to dominate deepfake porn hinges on Reddit, docs show 13 hours ago:
FWIW, probably not a lot of devs willing to tarnish their reputation (well at least tarnish it THAT much) they pay (unlikely very well), and they probably figure people are going to do it anyway (on their own hardware, or on a competitor) so they might as well make money off of it while they can.
And they definitely use it themselves.

I see all these stupid boyfriend/stupid husband stuff, and I can’t help but think maybe my ex wife was just jealous of her friends that had stupid men in their lives.
And maybe I’m just overqualified for relationships. I mean, shit, that was the advice my brother gave me: “I get along with people because they’re much smarter than me.” One of the first red flags I remembery ex wife telling me was “you know you don’t have to be so smarty all the time.”
Ok, no, I can’t even lie to myself that well, can you imagine? Being overqualified for dating lol

Yes but I can’t figure out the and gay part
- Comment on Anon finds love 4 days ago:
Ok, so, obviously fake, because anyone getting 23andMe probably doesn’t still live at home with their parents. And if they do they’re going to have enough similarities to know they are related somehow. Also why are they fucking when their mom can walk in midorgasm? Parents would know long before a few months pass.

We’re gonna find out.
6 months ago, I’d say yes. No matches at all. But I’ve worked out a lot in those 6 months, and I got better clothes, more comfortable haircuts, new glasses.
Imma have my brother get some photos.
I was recently told by several women that I really shouldn’t have a hard time as long as I don’t take selfies. I make good money, I’m 6’0", I’m white, I got blue eyes, and I have muscle. Im attractive at first glance.
They said I don’t need a perfect anything as long as it looks like I put effort in to appearing good. It’s something about effort and confidence being more attractive than being Henry Cavill. But I also have to learn to stay to my values and not just fall for the first hot woman I get a match with.

Look there are two kinds of people with breaking bad.
Those who loved it, and those who haven’t watched much or any of it.
My ex got me into it, and she’s kind of… Well, shes not brilliant. So I didn’t take her recommendations too seriously most of the time (I really don’t enjoy Teen Mom or 90 day fiance or 600lb life). But this? This show hooked me. It takes quite a few liberties with the sciency bits and lawyer bits, but it’s fun even with a bit of knowledge cause it starts with something being “technically correct.” It’s well written more than anything.

IIRC Orcas are one of the species that does shit that appears to have no biological advantage. Other species of dolphins do too.
Dolphins as a whole have some really creative behaviors, especially in social circles. And it appears that they do these things “for the hell of it.”

We got a figure out a way to remove first past the post.
There are really at least 3 groups, not liberals and conservatives.
There are progressives, neoliberals, and fascists.
Progressives believe the government exists to help all people.
Neoliberals say people should not be descriminated against, but wealth segregation is fine
Fascists are, well, fascists.

I stepped outside today. Coughed. Coughed again. Went back in to grab my inhaler, as my chest was already starting to tighten up. Took it. Decided not to go back outside.

- Comment on Living a lie 4 weeks ago:
In my ex’s case, she was well aware of it. Apparently she “practiced it” since she was a child because she got sick and tired of being told to “smile” and that no one looked good frowning all the time. Self-proclaimed resting bitch face model too.
While she could take off and on this mask, it was incredibly draining to do it. But she also couldn’t not do it. It was weird.
Unfortunately for her, she also couldn’t comprehend the emotions of other people at all, and failed to grasp why I might be upset that she cheated on me, and why I might be more than happy to cut her off from the financial security that being married to me provided.

I don’t use a customer service voice, but my ex, holy shit did she have a customer service voice that she did automatically. I hated it. High pitched, overly friendly, clearly lying about who she was.
Drove me nuts. Shed use it for meeting people the first time too, and the longer she used it the friendlier they became, which reinforced it and ugh.
