Soooooo, I actually wasn’t losing my shit when I came to the conclusion 17 fucking months ago that this was the fucking goal?

Guess I took that flight over the cuckoo’s nest for no reason. Or maybe all the reasons. Who the fuck knows.

Good luck American farmers. SA will seize the means of (ag) production before you know it. SA custom cutters have been here for years. Now they’re eyeing your land.

I genuinely do not know what to believe anymore.

Edit: the timing and optics might be poor, but I at least believe we should consider this credible. Platner should have to defend himself here, not her.

Edit edit: Trauma has no timeline.

goddamn telomeres at it again (or not)

Thank you for giving me more background here! I was vaguely aware of this feature but believe I disabled it earlier on (along with other unused features and app permissions en masse) so the surprise app was a shock. I’m tech-aware but not savvy at this point so I just risk mitigate where I can.

I don’t have experience with Shazam or similar for context, so do most apps like this utilize snippet hashes on device? (headed to wiki but thought I’d ask)

Thanks, man. Been having a shit week. Literally just noticed this standalone app today. Have actually had problems with paranoia before. Though it should go without saying to anyone that my second paragraph has an obvious /s attached it.

But again, thanks so much for telling me I’m embarrassing and I don’t want to learn anything, even if I posted this on a literal no stupid questions page, with an open ended question, akin to “does anybody else…?”

Yeah, okay. I do want to learn.

I especially want to learn to make sure I never explain anything to anyone like you just did to me.

Anybody notice a stock “Now Playing” app has automatically downloaded on their Android without their knowledge at some point?

Because I definitely want my phone always listening just in case there’s a song I don’t know that can be identified by an app I’m not even aware of!

God I need a dumb phone.

filled with gravity

imagining

“Hey kids! Time to make the prank of all time even more timeless! The Whoopee3000: Supermassive Black Hole Addition Edition. Get yours today! Not responsible for worm holes.”

… yeah no clue if I’m on the right track with the physics here, tbh I’m not even sure I have regular gravity down pat

Has someone made an SCP entry for these guys yet? Akin to the one they made for that one IKEA but even more meta somehow?

I’d like to see how this story ends.

Wait, Experian or Equifax?

Cripes, did I miss another one?

Wtf is “thought leadership” and wtf is it doing?

“Yes yes we must discontinue gathering real thoughts from the public because the Thought we now must all Think is that Thrump is Thy Thupreme Leada and Everythink™ is Great”

I felt I somehow stepped back in time reading this.

A cobbler though, eh? That’s pretty neat.

Be the change you want to see?

(I know it’s easier said than done.)

Nah man, I get where you’re coming from. Adding that “allegedly” vibe can inappropriately sow doubt. The annoying part is it’s probably a liability thing.

As if the media is ever properly held liable for such wrongdoings…

So make sure to spread the unaltered, original footage far and wide.

I called this shit 7 months ago. (Check my very first post.)

Now, at that time, there was discussion of “public-private” cooperation concerning the cybersecurity of that data so it could (paraphrasing) “stay in the hands of American people.” Lolol.

No doubt a similar agreement is in place and this shit is vectored directly to the US gov.

(Sorry, I start getting long-winded here.)

Fuck the technocracy. Bunch of cowardly assholes using and clearly planning to use Americans’ personal info against them en masse. The algorithms have manipulated us, pitting wage slave against wage slave. And all that extracted data will continue being utilized in siccing the brownshirts they rabbit-holed and radicalized onto conveniently corralled targets. Us.

We have to fight their algorithm manipulation with not only data poisoning and/or removing ourselves from the tech altogether, but good ol’ fashioned interpersonal psychological manipulation. And what I mean by that is physically talking to humans outside our bubble. Find some common ground. Believe it or not, it still exists. Use seemingly innocuous quips to plant seeds of doubt. Try to reach the human that may or may not still exist in that withered husk you work with, that maga uncle with a maga son so in the closet it hurts, the ones just acting like it’s all okay. Help them see the writing on the wall that they, too, will lose.

By completely disengaging with people we think are beyond redemption, we are possibly allowing so many with a shred of heart left to continue down the rabbit hole in private. People are stupid. And we know this division is by design. Fight it with well-placed words before they do something irredeemable and we have nothing left to fight with but arms.

A vast number of maga figureheads and followers sure seem to be living in a world of shared psychosis. And when you’re in a psychosis, it genuinely feels like everyone’s out to get you for reasons you can only justify with increasingly difficult mental gymnastics. But it’s all manufactured by the very real psychopaths in power, the ones ensuring the cult psychosis keeps perpetuating.

I guess what I’m saying is there’s still time to pull some of these followers or in-betweeners out of it by shifting the focus of what they think they have to fear by showing them what they really need to fear. A spin on killing them with kindness.

Idk tho. I’m just mad all of this dystopian hatred shit didn’t just stay inside all the books I read growing up.

Boooooooo. Gtfo, ice apologist.

Right?? I unironically love plain (buttered) noodles and even more so ramen with a plain can of tuna. Nice plain savory food. Homely but homey.

And yeah sure, considering the amount of money I’ve wasted on delivery the last month, I could afford the bougie recipe, but *why bother when this is actually pretty friggin tasty?

Health. Probably for health. Oh well. Itadakimasu.

Something about his previous arrests doesn’t sit right with me. There’s a lot of missing context.

Regarding the 2023 arrest for trespassing, why was he trespassing at a psychiatric facility in the first place? Was he having an episode and shaking his fist at the system that continues to fail him or was he concerned about someone inside? Why would something like trespassing go to trial and to the point he was found not competent to even stand trial?

I don’t know, there are simply too many missing pieces. And from too many of us the uncritical answer comes: “That man is crazy and has been all along.”
