They’re bad for now. But the existence of them now is a dire fucking warning and the message is clear: STOP USING FUCKIN SOCIAL MEDIA. How many times do they need to take advantage of you, break your trust, sell you out, and manipulate you before you take all of their power away? We all know they’re evil, everyone knows they fuckin suck. The answer is so painfully clear. But people continue being the engine to their entire existence. Why. Just why.

lol what’s not good about the last of us 2? It’s an excellent story, really engaging gameplay, great storytelling, it’s evocative, gorgeous, gruesome, poignant, sad as hell, has tons of depth, great characters, cohesive and interesting themes, great sound, voice acting…you really can’t ask for much more from a game.

That’s a relatively new phenomenon. All tech media was positive and the stuff of dreams until around the 2010s. Because we were seeing a steady and noticeable shift in the power dynamics. We were being pulled deeper under a capitalist nightmare instead of flying in a techno futuristic dreamscape. We couldn’t see anything but the piling negative aspects of our technology: it’s killing us, it’s enslaving us, its being used to spy on us, we’re being told it’s a wonder but we keep finding out it’s a horror. This isn’t on us for not being enlightened enough to see asimov’s words. We’re too aware of the active manipulation and torture. They made us the product, and they made the things we bought spy machines and tools of manipulation and deception.

We need to create better, freer tech, free from the oligarchs currently wringing us all dry while they build their multimillion dollar doomsday bunkers with the money they’re stealing from us if we are going to build the better world in which the better half of humanity succeeds. Art imitates life. And currently they’re outsourcing art to the oligarchs machines that are 10000x worse for the planet and the power dynamics.

Eh. I think she became one of the funniest characters in an increasingly cartoonish world. I think her change in characterization was excellent. She wasn’t just the stubborn object of Jeff’s desire, she became a hilarious character reflecting the insanity around her. She went from not much to do besides deflect Jeff’s advances to having the funniest moments and lines in the show.

We’re not gonna talk about Judy. No, we’re not gonna talk about her at all!

Look at how much conspiracy content especially after 2016 focused on pedophilia. A lot of it. That carried over into this

If you don’t mind my asking, how do you not have a moral objection to using AI? With everything we know about it, the theft, the benefit to the technocrats, the environmental toll, I could not bring myself to wave away those issues. Not to mention the power imbalance of this tech being controlled by the ruling class, looking to eliminate people’s livelihoods for the sake of profit. What do you use it for? I feel like we should be boycotting them en masse.

Not to mention, the political rhetoric for at least 10 years has been very much “things are falling apart!” I mean, fear has been the greatest motivator for voters for a long time. It’s a weapon used against you to keep you obedient and scared.

Now, does that mean things aren’t going wrong? Of course not. But that feeling is very much fostered by the people with money because it’s useful to them. Add to that, the growing number of non-money people sounding the alarm over things like climate change and late stage capitalism.

But if it helps, think of it this way: the money people don’t actually want things turned upside down. Because that disrupts their money. And the timeline for events like climate change are longer than “any day now.” So, something to think about.

Well, my favorites have been the sennheiser momentum (currently have the TW4). I’ve gone through a few and splurged on the A-T, but for sound quality, comfort, and noise cancellation, I haven’t found any better than the Sennhesier momentum.

The one downside is the case and the buds themselves are a little bulkier because they’re one solid shape as opposed to the little stem coming out from the bottom like the AirPod. So everything is self contained in one squarish-roundish shape. They’ve gotten smaller since the older 2’s that I had, but still a little bigger than the design style with the stem.

A big part for me is privacy, and I think sennheiser are the best for that too. That I’ve been able to find, anyway.

Damn, see I loved A-T but then I got their earbuds and was supremely disappointed.

I gotta say, as a long time android user, when I had to start relying on my phone for work, I was forced to switch to Apple and it’s just a better build. The hardware quality is much better and you can feel it.

Maybe more ketamine will help

I mean, how many times have they recalled these same, like, 5,000 trucks? This is at least the third massive recall.
