I like to put my legs on the arm rests. Sometimes if I’m sitting “normally” (not fully sideways) I put just one leg up.

I feel the same but with soda in general unless it’s one of the real sugar sodas. I do actually like sodas a lot, but only for special occasions. I used to live within walking distance of a Rocket Fizz and would get a couple bottles once or twice a month. They had a punch card, but I wouldn’t get punches very fast even though I was really close.

No. I think almost all of his executive orders have been things only congress does. No one is really stopping him from pumping hundreds of them out whether or not they’re even allowed to work. Also, he’s trying to pressure a private company through executive order in this case. They can say “fuck no.” And they should say “fuck no.”

My roommate is always complaining about his contacts drying or running out of new ones, and every time I cringe a little bit because I hate things touching my eyes. Even eye exams freak me out, but I only have to deal with weird things happening to my eyes when I get them. I’ve been trying to convert him back to glasses, but he won’t listen.

Facebook is both anti-privacy and also doesn’t believe in much moderation, both of which make VR dangerous if an entire family uses it. I don’t believe VR should be something only adults can use, but there needs to be some really good moderation. Otherwise it would just be overrun by sexual predators and edgelords.

I’ve seen ones that were custom painted and they look significantly better. It doesn’t stop them from being dumpsters on wheels, but at least they look finished.

They don’t even have to kill anyone on purpose. They just have to force people to undergo experimental autism cures, which have historically killed patients. An example of this would be chelation therapy, aka using the medication used to remove heavy metals from the body under the (unconfirmed) assumption that autism is caused by heavy metals.

If a database is good enough to connect pharmacy records, medical records, and even health info from smart watches (which a doctor or insurance company would not have access to) then it would need to link patient info together in a way that’s not as anonymous as they claim it to be. Theoretically, this could be enough information to force someone into doing these experimental treatments in order to keep their driver’s license (even if they’re otherwise high functioning enough to not be hospitalized) or force someone to be hospitalized with promises of being taught to be more independent later down the line.

A company’s phone bot actually able to answer my questions properly? I’ve never seen it happen. You gotta scream the word “representative” multiple times or else it would put you through loops of utter nonsense. You can’t say it at a polite volume or else it will ignore it. You can’t just say it once because it will “argue” with you that it knows how to do things faster, which is never really the case.

I got into this while on a trip to visit family and only really forgot to finish it because of the trip itself. I need to finish it.

They have reverse toe thumbs.

Everyone with this is one of my evil twins.

Ew. This is why I don’t like AI. It’s not always inherently bad but people use it and pass it off as their own work or cheat on tests. People who do this are lucky I’m not their boss. Using AI to do your training just means you’re easily replaceable.
