I get so many typos now that aren’t even a word. And I seriously can’t even wirt proofreading anymore because it’s just gotten so bad I no longer even care of I sound like I had a stroke.

Something isn’t right about that…
- Comment on Reddit introduces a new ad format that looks similar to posts made by users | TechCrunch 3 months ago:
Haha that’s such a great point. I love your comment almost as much as plants love Brawndo. It’s what plants crave. You can get Brawndo at every major retailer by the way and President Camacho fully endorses Brawndo.
- Comment on Why can animals eat grass that they have pooped on, but humans would get sick? 3 months ago:
My rabbits eat poop hay but not pee hay. They actually have special poops that they have to eat called cecotropes so I’m guessing their gut microbiome is more beneficial than ours. Also because they are hind gut fermenters, the bacteria necessary for the fermentation are probably different than the ones in our gut.
- Comment on Teens, with mixed feelings about their own phones, say their parents need to log off 3 months ago:
Tilting conservative? I was under the impression that it fell off the deep end years ago. Idk I quit using it but that was definitely the impression I had.
- Comment on Do you ever worry that you're secretly a psychopath that unknowingly manipulates people around you? 3 months ago:
I would suggest that you find a therapist who is experienced with psychopathy and see them. Although a lot of people who are psychopaths do terrible things, not everyone does and empathetic SEEMING behaviors can be learned and be beneficial. It seems like this is bothering you and getting a diagnosis and learning how to read other people’s emotions and respond appropriately might help. Even if you aren’t actually feeling it, you could put them at ease and fit in better. Radical truth is great and all but little white lies get told for a reason and that’s something it might help you to learn.

Let’s not delude ourselves. Google is totally getting something out of this. Not sure if they just want some good press for a change or if it’s something else though.

- Comment on Google Chrome Warning Issued For All Windows Users 4 months ago:
I love how Mozilla is warning you that you’re gonna have trouble using Chrome? It’s Forbes so I’m not bothering clicking but I can only assume that Mozilla is also warning that you’re gonna have a bad time trying to use Firefox.

Blows gas and pieces of foam into the airway. So it suffocates you when it’s supposed to stop you from suffocating basically.
- Comment on Commercials Are Streaming’s New Norm, and Creators Aren’t Happy: “It’s Almost Worse Than Broadcast” 4 months ago:
That’s all fine and good but I want to point out so everyone can watch out for this - sometimes if you have a subscription and your card expires or gets lost/stolen and replaced, companies can somehow get your new card info without you giving it to them and keep your shit active. So you can’t assume that a new card will take care of old subscriptions that you totally forgot about. You have to check your statements.
- Comment on Google Search Really Has Gotten Worse, Researchers Find 5 months ago:
Your story is obviously anecdotal but I think it pretty much aligns with what what we’ve all experienced. You search for something and get results for something else. You change your search to try to get results you asked for and get… literally the exact same results. It’s infuriating.
- Comment on YouTube is slowing down for users with ad blockers in new wave 5 months ago:
Try opening a link from Gmail in Firefox or searching Google for a specific piece of information. SSDD. Fuck Google. At this point they’re in par with the evil Amazon.
- Comment on Star Citizen Introducing a $48,000 Ship Bundle, but Only for Players Who Have Already Spent $10,000 5 months ago:
How is elite dangerous these days? I was playing no man’s sky which has been continually updated since release yesterday and my bf was badgering me that I could play that instead. I was trying to explain to him that I was having fun playing this and want to play this and he was insisting that elite dangerous has been updated and is so much better. Honestly it was so annoying but I wanted another opinion on how it is as a game lol

It’s one thing to drop a few bucks here and there into a game you enjoy but when you start spending 10k on a fuckin game you have a serious issue. Even if you’re ultra wealthy, do you really have nothing else you could waste that money on? I think it’s time for a serious crackdown on predatory gaming.
- Comment on 23andMe tells victims it's their fault that their data was breached | TechCrunch 5 months ago:
Sorry, I thought it was obvious that we’re talking about the part that varies by individual humans…
- Comment on 23andMe tells victims it's their fault that their data was breached | TechCrunch 5 months ago:
But hear me out, I have no control over my cousin or aunt or some random relative getting one of these tests and now this shitty company has a pretty good idea what a large chunk of my DNA looks like. If people from both sides of my family do it they have an even better idea what my genetic profile looks like. That’s not my fault, I never consented to it, and it doesn’t seem ok.

- Comment on Google announces April 2024 shutdown date for Google Podcasts 6 months ago:
That’s not why they’re killing t though, it’s because they’re moving it to YouTube to get subscriptions.
- Comment on Google announces April 2024 shutdown date for Google Podcasts 6 months ago:
I really like this app, not so much paying a subscription. But I wanted access on both my phone and my PC and that was the only way to get it.
- Comment on Walmart, Costco and other companies rethink self-checkout, some stores removing them 6 months ago:
Same. I’m purchasing 2 small things and there’s a line with the creepy incel cashier? Yep self checkout FTW. I have an entire cart full of stuff and the store doesn’t even have a cashier? FML.
