  That’s what it is. I’m looking at your history and it’s basically all meme communities.

  Shit in, shit out.

  I genuinely haven’t seen any of this personally.

  Is it possible that you’re just subscribed to bottom of the barrel dipshit meme communities?

  they’re trying to use exposure to trick you into buying their particular product instead of someone else’s identical product.

  That’s probably the case for a lot of products, but I don’t agree with your generalization that advertising offers nothing to the consumer and is presumably a drain on the economy.

  I run a small business and see noticeable returns on advertising dollars spent vs not advertising. I run a services business and advertising makes it easier for clients to find us and makes me more money that I put back into the economy by buying lavish things like food and rent. I hate advertising and wish I didn’t have to pay Google or use social media to promote our “brand”, but the truth is I do in order to stay competitive.

  The advertising I’m buying isn’t tricking or spamming anybody, it’s targeted to people that are looking for that kind of service in my area and it doesn’t misrepresent our work in any way. What it does do is get my foot through the door and increases the likelihood of them reaching out to us over the schmucks down the street that offer a similar service, but are not as good as us in terms of value, customer service and quality of work. There’s value in that for the consumer.

  Still catching up on episodes of Bob’s Burgers. Watched it when it came out for a few seasons and then kind of checked out intermittently and realized that I’m a few seasons behind and there are a BUNCH of episodes I hadn’t seen.

  I can’t get enough of it.

  Mrs. Maisel is just so delightful and so much fun visually throughout the entire thing. Finished it up a few weeks ago and kind of bummed there won’t be more, but it ended where it made sense and that last season almost overstayed its welcome, so it’s entirely alright.

  Also surprisingly, one of the better uses of HDR in a show that I’ve seen so far.

  That’s one of my go-to comfy shows. Still so good and it’s heartwarming to know that JD and Turk’s actors have a very similar relationship in real life.

  And you can make a career out of lying to your dipshit audience for over 20 years while selling sketchy supplements, gold coins and silver and make survivors and relatives of children and teachers murdered in a mass school shooting a fucking nightmare.

  Shout out to Knowledge Fight.

  That was a great watch, thank you.
