I honestly kind of hate that I grew up in the 90s… Born mid 80s and was old enough in the 90s to have my childhood engrained with this idea that the future was all progress from there on out. Then the 2000s come along with a big ol’ middle finger and it’s just been fascists all the way down and economic decline from there. :/

Unfortunately we got this future Biff:

“Daddy daddy, what do you think the future will be like?”

“Oh I think it will be wonderful: flying cars, more understanding of our neighbors, space travel, cures for diseases, people will live more comfortable easy lives!”

The future: fascists, racist robots, billionaires, more fascists, bombing civilians, cutting science funding, the earth is on fire, more fascists, cutting HIV study funding, more racist robots, gutting artistic employment, more billionaires, fried donuts.

I guess it’s not all terrible, just mostly.

I was thinking about that this morning in regards to Ukraine to be honest. We in the US NEVER do something because it’s the right thing to do, we do it for business interests. Trump made that more clear with his demands for a minerals deal in writing for continued military assistance in the war against Russia. Any other administration would “know” continued access to those minerals was implied with Ukraine retaining its independence.

I can’t stand that this piece of shit gets to dictate what most of the world does in their own fucking countries… It’s bad enough he’s fucking us in the US…

“I mean sure, the baby died, but I really wouldn’t have known what to do at all without chatGPT! At least it gave me the proper procedure to follow after they died. Who knew you needed to make a post to eBay for a sale of used parts? I guess that’s a medical code or something. I should ask ChatGPT!”

ChatGPT… Life saving…

He’s been doing it a lot lately, it’s so absurd…

My friend is on one of the teams working on that so I suppose I’ll know soon enough if they’re gutting that portion. So far he hasn’t said anything, so here’s hoping they’re safe!

Yes it’s called Donald Trump. His weight and his massive fucking ego bend space and time.

“Valuable you say…”

How is this not massive news?

Faux News had to jump through 100 hoops and do all sorts of gymnastics to connect Biden to some Ukraine business to claim he was corrupt and every fucking Magoo knows the Hunter Biden laptop… Trump just straight up says “PAY MY RESORT $1 MILLION” and then changes policy in your favor and that’s not corrupt?

If I recall correctly the Trump family has just gotten involved with a crypto exchange so… Yeah. Incoming Trump crime family fraud

I was still surprised… We live in a world that has “rule 34” and yet I was still surprised to read that…

“In too many cases silencing individuals for doing nothing more than expressing themselves online…”

Yeah… If your expression is “all the n-words and f-words should die in a fire” then you can go fuck yourself. You going to go complain to spez over at reddit that you can’t even post a picture of Luigi? I don’t think so.

“On the bright side, each reentry produces a beautiful fireball–and the odds are increasing that you’ll see one. Visit the Aerospace Corporation for reentry predictions, and submit your photos here.”

🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮

It slightly saves my sanity. Only slightly though.

Compelled speech it is then?

So when are bakers going to be forced to bake cakes for gay couples?

Oh, right, hypocrites. Naturally.

A little late to the conversation there wired.

Match group killed most dating apps years ago when they acquired as many as possible and turned them all into tinder clones, literally removing useful features, not even including them in “premium” versions.

Hinge was the last to hold on to being “acceptable” to those that used it (I need more profile than pictures so I didn’t care for it) but I guess that’s changed now too.

Monetizing human needs never ends well… Seeking a partner is a human need and these corpo fucks know it and drooled over the prospect of exploiting it. I gave up on them a few years ago so I’m just staying single I guess.
