Zoomies are nice for sure.

Geoffrey Epstein is a great podiatrist. Protects his patients and even advocates on behalf of them. He also makes sure to recommend only heavily tested and quality medicine for his patients, even when suspect companies approach him offering him incentives for recommending new medicines without much verification and testing yet.

Geoffrey Epstein is ethical. Geoffrey Epstein didn’t shill himself.

I knew Lunk and Ehab the horse. But is that Blunk at the end? I think his name is Blunk.

What’s wrong with me?!

I’m getting what I deserve I’m reaping what I sow—

This meme comes from The Simpsons. I think the episode is called “MyPods and Broomsticks”, where they parody Apple. The scene specifically is one of the Itchy and Scratchy episodes within the episode. Scratchy is listening to his MyPod and dancing akin to the old commercials when the iPod existed, and Itchy cranks up the volume so Scratchy’s head explodes.

Tack on Tim Apple to the list, too.

Sometimes when I close my eyes, I can’t see.

There’s a lot we still don’t know about Jeffrey Epstein

Maybe we can ask his best friend?

See the excerpt from my comment you replied to:

If we can’t keep those spaces small and safe from corporate abuse, maybe that not-so-small minority will begin using the internet only as a utility and instead leave the socialisation and interaction entirely for the real world only. It’s far more personal and meaningful that way.

I predict a not-so-small minority will get tired of bots, AI bullshit, SEO optimisation, AI-written articles peppered with Amazon affiliate links, predatory algorithms, etc. That minority will find smaller, human spaces to interact and socialise in. The majority, ever the fan of convenience, will continue to adapt to the corporate enclave of the internet.

The answer is decentralisation. The more fatigued we get with the traditional way we interact with the internet, the more common it will become to return to (or create) new decentralised spaces. Maybe those spaces won’t be as large as the Fediverse. Perhaps we’ll fragment further to niche forums, group chats, etc. If we can’t keep those spaces small and safe from corporate abuse, maybe that not-so-small minority will begin using the internet only as a utility and instead leave the socialisation and interaction entirely for the real world only. It’s far more personal and meaningful that way.

Nice! Do you feel like sharing your strategy that works for you?

Hell yes. The President we should have had in 2016.

I’m been browsing Craigslist trying to find a 27” Sony Trinitron.

Maybe I need a VHS player to go along with it.

Keep them just smart enough to work the machines, but too stupid to coordinate uprising.

Really? I heard that’s where he normally stores his McDonald’s Filet-o-Fish for easy access. Ever heard of a sandwich holster? Well he’s got one strapped to each calf like no one has ever seen before, on levels that no one has ever heard of before.

Thank you for introducing me to Death Generator! I love this!

I guess there wasn’t an available toddler picture for Bentneck Comfysweater.

Starbucks is providing a corporate jet and paying for him to fly to Seattle. He’s probably not doing it every day, but it’s quite disgusting.

But let’s force everyone who isn’t a CEO to uproot their lives and move. Starbucks pinky swears that after you relocate, they won’t do a round of job cuts in a year.
