Oh stop it. It’s not the same anymore. Sex I haven’t had in over 30 years. I didn’t understand the fuss over something that has such a small payoff for such an enormous investment of resources.
Music? Look, I used to go out clubbing and dance til 3AM, and sometimes even head out to after parties, for the music. It was fun. Do you think sitting at my computer chair and listening to one song a day is the even near the same level of enjoyment?
Things just change as you get older. Can we stop pretending otherwise?

I’m sure they do, but it’s not the same anymore.

To me, sex is like music and parties: definitely for the youth.

There’s some middle-age mommy fat in there too.

Old people pretending sex is still so fun at that age it’s worth losing everything over will never not be funny to me.

Bizarre grammar there: “Our firewall detects abnormal activity from your IP”. It does? When?

The rat alarm clock is pretty clever though. Once the roaches finish eating it, it’s a snooze button!

Oh yes, that’s how Aamon makes his works, that’s what makes them even more hilarious. Try the Kanye one next… Like, obviously, not at work.

1995… The peak of humanity. Industrial clubs everywhere, fun cheap bars, bright clothes, danceable music, computers you still had a chance of understanding somewhat, home appliances and lightbulbs didn’t need firmware updates or spy on you, affordable housing and groceries, relative worldwide peace…
I think I’d burst into tears if I saw this sign IRL

True, but the advancements boil down to late 19th century ideas like “wash your hands after the autopsy before delivering Ms Green’s baby”, which the medical establishment pushed hard against at the time. Tells you a lot about the medical mindset…
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignaz_Semmelweis
“Despite his research, Semmelweis’s observations conflicted with the established scientific and medical opinions of the time and his ideas were rejected by the medical community. He could offer no theoretical explanation for his findings of reduced mortality due to hand-washing, and some doctors were offended at the suggestion that they should wash their hands and mocked him for it.”

Oh, agree. But how many people do you think we can sustain your way globally in the coming decades? We are projected to reach 10 billion by 2050 by some estimates.
- Comment on Made Ya Look... 1 week ago:
Well yes, but that means 8 billion people will be a bit of a snug fit on this planet, don’t you think?
And we had sustainable food capacity up to 1859.
There’s no more bat guano either.
- Comment on Made Ya Look... 1 week ago:
Yes, but without fossil fuel inputs humanity couldn’t sustain 8 billion people, renewable energy or not.
My point is that humanity is heading into a foundational tree chipper. Don’t you think we’re already seeing signs of unraveling?
Of course humanity can survive on renewable energy, that’s how we built the Pyramids, but those civilizations didn’t have 8 billion people shopping on Aliexpress or spray cheese on nachos to watch the football game.
