Truly amazing that this not only took off as a meme, but somehow remained popular all these years later.

Yeah, ok. Not sure I really buy that. Seems like the kind of administration that would just say stuff and pin the blame on anyone just to say they got the perp. Convenient that the guy is already dead with no trial needed.

Sounds like you’re asking the human brain to fire in a pattern it’s not even wired for. Random noise in the web, or even definitionally impossible as “totally alien” might imply a configuration of neurons opposite of what we have. I feel like I’m having a hard time describing my thought here.

Why’s it smiling at me, man?

It’s the new politically correct way of saying “committed” suicide. My understanding is that it’s to lesson the accusatory stigma and shifting the blame away from the will of the individual to the state of their mental health, similar to how you would say someone died from a heart attack instead of died by eating a cheeseburger at every meal.

that’s right. it’ll all happen very fast. 🙂‍↕️

we have the technology to defeat the trash bag

Surprised this isn’t already a thing. A high speed camera and some machine-learning vision model could learn a lot from someone’s trash as it goes into the garbage truck. It would be accurate to the household level, at least. Very valuable for targeted ad sales.

That’s pretty slick!

I have run it for years, and I wish they weren’t so limiting and heavy-handed in trying to force people into a paid subscription.

It’s heading nowhere according to Duffy.

Same problem, new challenges.

We have to presume and act as if laws have effect. But it can’t stop at just declaring “He can’t do that!” It must extend to electing people that will hold him to it.
