So AI is always ready to sell you out if someone is willing to pay them enough and there’s a non-zero chance that AI convinced someone to shoot up a school after already convincing several people to commit suicide.

This sounds like monitor and cull.

What is QBitTorrent, and how is it different from BitTorrent? Please explain like I’m a boomer.

It angers me that there is so much potential to make our lives genuinely easier and we focus it on writing bad articles and making naked pictures.

*Edited spelling because I’m having issues today apparently.

I think I figured it out but I always second guess myself lol. I feel like getting it on the first try means I am way off.

I feel like the salt water would affect the sweetness of the pineapple. I down with sweet and salty but soggy, salt water pineapple might have to bean exception.

That’s why I’m a communist, but most people are afraid of that term. I would settle for really good socialism in my lifetime though.

I hate being stuck as a wage slave creating wealth for the people standing on my shoulders, but I like to work and I like my job, it’s a strange place to exist.

I don’t want to work in order to survive but I want to be productive and keep my mind and body sharp while also contributing to the community. I like my job and while it seems mundane, it keeps me busy, gives me routine, gives my brain problems to solve, and is sometimes the most socializing I get. I just hate that I have to be afraid to lose my job or end up hungry or homeless because of it.

Oh yeah, no I just backed up and waited for him to go, sometimes I’ll dramatically bow at people who don’t stop for me but this guy was particularly infuriating because I was already walking on the sidewalk and he just went anyways. Too many drivers act like the fact that they can kill me gives them the right of way and a lot of the comments here are behaving the same way, it’s actually concerning. Like, sure wearing brighter colours can help, but it literally does not matter what you wear because the driver is going to make excuses anyways - “they dressed too dark”, “they came out of nowhere”, “I didn’t see them” - all of them amount to “I wasn’t paying enough attention to safely manage my murder machine but I can’t accept accountability because me!” And I’ve proven that fact by wearing bright colours, carrying lights, and being patient and giving up my right of way and they still almost hit me every day.

As if it actually matters what colour a pedestrian is wearing. My winter coat is white and I carry two lights - one on my coat and one either on my head or in my hand if it’s too irritating to wear. The other evening I was walking home from the grocery store and this guy kept pulling out of parking lot that crossed my sidewalk, even though I was waving my light right at him but he didn’t even look in my direction until he was already pulling into traffic. He was never looking for pedestrians, only vehicles.

So a MexUSA trade pact, not a North American. I mean, he can call it whatever he wants I suppose, but it will still be what it is regardless of the name.

Last year, at 40 years old (I am just a white lady so it’s not actually relevant to the broader topic, only your comment but still), I was approached by an elderly man and he told me how nice it was to see ladies that still dressed like ladies. When I walk down town there’s a group of old guys that always yell out that I’m a “beautiful lady”. At a certain age, they don’t notice your age anymore and they think they can just say whatever they want because they’re old and no one will say anything. I’m not even conventionally attractive n any way.

I was on my way to a hair appointment anyways (I had hair almost touching my butt which paired with the dress made me ladylike apparently) as I was chopping off my hair to donate, but coming out of there with a short, androgynous haircut felt liberating after that. And it’s sad because enjoy looking feminine and feeling pretty but people tend to ruin it every time.

The American Dream was an illusion. It was all propaganda to convince people to feed themselves to the capitalist machine for a chance at living the dream life, but even people who aren’t trapped under years of medical debt or homeless or visible minorities don’t have it easy, they’ve just been convinced that’s as good as it gets.

Edited cause my grammar was weird.

I’m obliged to point out the recent Doctor Who episode where the aliens were owls. Well, shape shifting, cosplaying owls to be more accurate.

Clearly you do not understand: 1) how addictions work, 2) how mental illnesses that aren’t addiction work, or 3) that almost no one chooses to be homeless but people do fuck up.

There is no excuse to dehumanize anyone and if you’ve got yourself convinced that these people somehow got themselves where they are then you’ve fallen for the capitalist propaganda cause guess what? People who are happy, stable, and well provided for do not generally start doing drugs and people with good mental health support do not typically just stop taking their meds, but people who are comfortable with the status quo will make any excuse to make sure they get to keep what they have while ignoring that everyone has a right to that same comfort but some people need extra help getting there.

This perfectly encapsulates my comment, thank you.

If this is happening at work then you need to bring it up to his boss or someone above him, preferably a woman who won’t make excuses for him. Outside of work there’s not a lot you can do except let him know that it’s a huge red flag when older men want women without life experience.

Seriously though, the amount of money I saved by not owning a car gets me a pretty nice place in a city with transit, it’s not great transit but I can’t afford a larger city like Vancouver. Unfortunately where I live is also notoriously hostile towards pedestrians and cyclists.

The person probably wouldn’t have been homeless if not for capitalism. I also make a habit of not believing third hand stories off the internet.

Maybe disenfranchised people who are forced to live in the street have something to be angry about in a system that trains the wage slaves to dehumanize the people who don’t fit in the same box so that we have something to fear if we stop contributing to the machine.

“Don’t be like him, Little Timmy. You need to go to school and be a good little cog in the machine until you get ill or make a mistake and then it will abandon you and villify you for not being a perfect cog for the billionaires to use up like an infinite resource.”

Traffic and car-centrism exist because of capitalism. Fuck the man, take the bus.

This is why people are upset no one knows how to read anymore. Did you even read the title of the post? You didn’t even have to click the link.
