- Comment on What do you think about the dead internet theory? 2 days ago:
Just saw a report on my feed here that said something like 80% of TikTok is AI crap and over 20% of Facebook is. So that means that sites like Threads, Instagram, X, or any other social media is going to have a large percentage of bots, AI and real trolls, and corporate shills over and above those numbers.
On top of the unaffiliated trolls and shit-stirrers already out there.
So it’s well on the way to happening.

Similar boat. Already had a house, been together for years. Getting married was just for fun and tax benefits. It changed nothing, otherwise.
- Comment on 🤔 Interesting 3 days ago:
Just further enshittification. Companies don’t make new things or new technologies anymore. They just find new ways to rent squat and extract fees.
- Comment on Why do doctors not seem to give a fuck about pain? Is this just an American doctor thing, or is it universal? 4 days ago:
Probably just thanks to insurance companies yet again
Doctors don’t get to make their own decisions anymore, they’re paid more like car mechanics and get a “job rate”.
Change a tire? It’s billed at $28 bucks. Doesn’t matter if it takes you 10 minutes or an hour. Air and balancing is included. Anything extra you don’t get paid for.
Gotta put in an IUD? You get $500 for the job, included is one shot of pain meds, the IUD, and one set of sterile equipment. Pain meds not working so great on this patient? Insurance doesn’t pay for extra, outpatient center doesn’t get paid for it or has to fight insurance for it.
Same for novocaine in dental work.
Insurance is terrible.

- Comment on Was Alex Jones right about anything? 5 days ago:
Some people are illiterate everywhere. What’s your point? Anyone can look ip literacy stats in the US, you aren’t revealing some dirty secret. So some kids can’t tell time. Prove it’s worse instead of repeating whatever pointless hot take you’re pushing.
- Comment on Do you think that Trump is being blackmailed? 5 days ago:
If you’re being blackmailed you also need to be worried about the consequences of the information being revealed, like legal consequences.
Trump dgaf about any of that, nobody’s prosecuting him for the existing things he’s done.

Are there any cuttings of the tree that might be used to re-grow it in the same place?

They are good. Just most people usually get the cheap candybox gift type which are awful. Home made or from a decent shop they are awesome.

- Comment on You need to think long term 1 week ago:
I can’t imagine what people have to listen to when they ask a customer for their email address. There will be sane people that have a “normal” address for such purposes, then there will be the ones that keep “pussysmasher_hobag@whatever.com” as some kind of flex and make everyone else have to copy that down.
- Comment on Always with the hidden fees. 1 week ago:
Lol absolutely no way you don’t know you got the norovirus. Death might seem like a viable option when it’s at it’s worst. Also, no way you don’t know you’re cramping so bad you shit yourself. A sensory deprivation tank doesn’t make you unaware of your own body, in fact it can cause hyperawareness because it’s all you’ve got.
But whatever. Good internet story.
- Comment on The 1996 experience 1 week ago:
Oh certainly. I do recall several cartoons (reruns from ‘40s and earlier) that had deer or other animals turning into smokin’ hot pinup farm girls luring inept farm boys on the hunt or to explain the male animal’s lust. Then again, the appearance was often brief and they tended to not be three dimensional characters like modern ones.
- Comment on The 1996 experience 1 week ago:
There’s exceptions, of course you’re right. But it became way more common in and after the 1980s.
- Comment on The 1996 experience 1 week ago:
I wonder if there’s a correlation between the rise in sexy anthropomorphized animals and furries.
When I was younger they absolutely had humanized animals in cartoons, but they were super modest if they were human-ish, otherwise they were just talking animals. At some point we gave them…”generous” human attributes.

It would probably work out better for everybody if he actually did take them to Mars.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
As proven by the voting public, too many people live in a fantasy land where the impossible is possible, like making lying cheaters into honest presidents. I don’t understand what benefit anybody thinks they could get from a space station on Mars. It’s not like they’re gonna get to live there or get any of the benefits from it. It must be the same people that refused to place any restrictions on Billionaires, like taxes, somehow they think a billionaire based on Mars is good for them.
