if you could turn into an animal at will what would it be.

Look, in fucking July, my species was renamed the fucking paradoxical sea Muppet (Australyichthys paradoxus), and I’m kind of fucking sore about it.

Fucking Muppet! I’m a fucking seahorse. Fucking look at me you fucking imbeciles. Human fucks! Always fucking with you, fucking shit up, fucking up naming shit, fucking up the sea, ffs they’re the fucking muppets

So, “seahorse” is my answer, thx

I'm tired

We all know it’s news that’s the problem

All these horrible things have always happened, even worse, but less frequently because lower global population. And we’d never find out about it because they’re shooting babies on the other side of the world

Is it bad that we know about it? No? But I’m trying to catch up, digest it, let it help form my opinions, then turn off notifications, read a book, go outside T_T spend time with safe people irl. I hate leaving my nest, but it feels good to stretch my wings. I’m trying to limit myself to one or two days online. It’s not working

Suppose that is all true. At every juncture I would reject the notion that they are creating an opportunity or job that would not otherwise exist (nor, on the whole, paying those workers any better).

There are more than enough restaurants, gardens, houses, private hire vehicles, shipbuilders etc to support those chefs, gardeners, cleaners, drivers and shipwrights without ever having to do with anybody with any wealth.

More expensive items, such as fancy cars, do not create the same number of jobs commensurate with the price increase, they generally make less of them, and increased profit margins go to the benefit of investors, not workers.

I’m not an economist or AI BS user, so there are probably words for these phenomena that idk sry
