I just can't even stand the personality of someone who's first fucking instinct when they see violent or sexual media is "If I don't like it no one should be allowed to see it." Fuck off.

And Rush Hour 1-3 :(

I already feel shitty enough that I liked those movies because of how Jackie Chan turned out to be a homophobic authoritarian. But both this piece of shit director and Chris Tucker are both in the Epstein files. Fuck me.

The issue isn't talking to women. The issue is talking to people you are attracted to.

I'm bi but I'm not attracted everyone. And I can tell you it takes a lot more from me to talk to someone I'm attracted to and I don't think I could easily just be normal friends with someone I badly want to fuck and just have normal conversations with them.

Cops are literally selected for a lack of intellect. Being too smart can disqualify you from police service under some police chiefs/sheriffs.

I want that feeling to disappear, by having Linux completely dominate the OS space.

I'm so tired of this guy.

That's some delicious evil.

My younger brother loves Tyler Durden quotes. One in particular "It's only after we've lost everything that we're free to do anything."

I'm not sure why that one jumps out at him, dude makes more money than me. I do want to say though that hes genuinely a good person in most ways, hes completely surrounded by frothing at the mouth rightwingers but maintains that he is a centrist. And he says stuff that implies left wing and anarchist beliefs but constantly defends rightwing figures when I shit talk them around him. Most notably Joe Rogan.

Hes just badly propagandized and would end up being socially isolated if he started actually identifying as left wing because all of his friends would stop talking to him. And he refuses to move and make new friends. Its depressing.

And then as you are trying to walk by they "dodge" right into your feet.

I closed the community center I work at alone yesterday. Had a homeless guy come by after closing wanting me to bag some pantry food for them and I told them I was wrapping up for the day and they'd have to come tomorrow. He threw a hissy fit, I shut the door, and 2 minutes later another burly hairy dude in an old SUV came by with a nasty grumpy look on his face parked directly in front of our front door. They waited outside the door for me to leave.

Suffice to say I wasn't interested in getting jumped/stabbed over whatever they were thinking and I exited out the back and snuck the rest of the way to my car. What a fucking memorable Monday.

The same way people who fantasize about zombie apocalypses. Free roaming survivors enjoying the fruits of a dead civilization with bits of largely consequence free violence thrown in here and there.

Either that or they think their ideology will come out on top, and they're enjoy the fruits of their utopia, while all the non-believers are long dead, having been killed off by their fellow ideologues.

it’s really harmless.

No its not. Belief in bullshit has negative consequences for the individual, their friends and family, and society as a whole.

Now, is it comparatively less harmful than some other things they could believe in? Absolutely but its still bad.

6 cancellations and 7 delays? That's an omen.

I don't know if my anxiety would allow me to explicitly state that I'm flirting with someone. I may force myself to try that though.

I wish I could ask if they were flirting with me, but I'm pretty sure there are a lot of contexts where if I asked they'd say no because I asked even though the true answer was yes. And if the true answer actually was no, then they'd suddenly probably just become uncomfortable. Both results are just a loss.

I hate it.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I've gotten pretty OK at flirt detection, but it uses like 100% of my concentration and focus and its exhausting. Usually worth it though.

People say that about food, music/dancing, and stories because they are the least antagonistic thing they could bring up while boasting about their culture. Its the least likely to get attacked as well, its a non-controversial aspect they can sing the praises of and its something easily shared

If they bring up their cultural religion, values, politics, philosophy, or social dynamics, suddenly things can become an area of controversy and even ethical debate. Most people are too fragile or cowardly to investigate that stuff.

Honestly, I get it, some dipshits starts way ahead and you started in the gutter.

Most people however legitimately start in the gutter and don't even try, embrace anti-intellectualism, and see people climbing their way out of the gutter as traitors. And I fucking hate those people more than the douche with a silver spoon up his ass.

Using this meme format doesn't make sense. Why would he need to explain that?

But yeah I play GURPS so I'm none of these people.

That's victorian era morals super charged by protestant evangelical puritanism. Kids are perfect innocent angels that become hyper corrupted by the sin of nakedness and the flesh.

The USA never seems to get past this in particular.

This is a problem for all social media. Eventually every social media site that allows users to post anything will be bombarded to a degree that it will be impossible to find humans. It will be functionally impossible to moderate. And outside of that there will be whole ecosystems of fake AI generated websites will pop up with scams and propaganda. The internet will become a trash fire and people will have no choice but to eat the burning trash or touch grass.

People who were comfortable never leaving their house other than for work will either become schizophrenic zombies or will get cabin fever and desperately seek connection offline.

EDIT: And I say this as someone who doesn't intrinsically hate AI.
