Fuckin’ oversensitive dipshits. All of them. They can feel free to paddle their douche canoes as far away from me as possible.

If you’ve never rolled over in laughter after someone rips The Big One, I will forever question your friendship.
Farts are tactfully hilarious bodily functions. Mad props, too, if you covertly crop dust an entire room.

I’m terrified to see an AI rendering of what The David, 2 Girls, 1 Cup would look like.

Artificial Intelligence at this stage is Artificial Ignorance. It’s not ready to be unleashed onto anyone who blindly trusts anything they read.

- Comment on Content is King? - How it sucked out the joy of personal websites 9 months ago:
StumbleUpon was my jam. I could procrastinate my homework for HOURS with that toolbar!
The temptation to explore felt real. Not like clickbait.
It was that wonderful time on the internet where you got the chance to enrich your knowledge without having an algorithm force stuff on you because it thinks it knows what you like.
I love being surprised and love learning new things. The algorithms, AI, and SEO have stripped all of that curiosity and discovery away.

- Comment on ‘Front page of the internet’: how social media’s biggest user protest rocked Reddit 10 months ago:
It’s necessary. I agree. Admins exist for a reason and serve a purpose. But when you get get into a “Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?” debate it becomes a topic that needs to be addressed. I don’t have enough expertise to give an answer to such an existential question so I’ll have to leave it to anyone else to hash it out from here.

Definitely a baby step in the correct direction.
- Comment on ‘Front page of the internet’: how social media’s biggest user protest rocked Reddit 10 months ago:
I want an internet where admins don’t control the world. Where moderators don’t become megalomaniacs that get to control the way submissions and comments get banned without reason.
I want a place where someone’s passion for their unique hobby doesn’t get stripped away by corporate interests, exploitative third parties, and ad agencies.
I know it might be a pipe dream but I’ll keep trying to fight for what I believe.

This is literally one of a handful of times in my life where I will begrudgingly accept that word.
It doesn’t make me proud.

911 doesn’t just activate police. It activates Fire and Emergency Medical Srvices aka ambulances if your life is in danger for any reason.
- Comment on Task failed successfully? 10 months ago:
People like me?.. I don’t like to reveal a lot about myself online. That being said, I’ve talked many people out of committing suicide or self harm. I’ve said before in other comments that I’m in the medical field at a high level.
Positive mental health treatment is an extremely important subject to me. I stand by what I’ve said because I’ve been there when people have been in crisis.
Kneeling down and talking a newly diagnosed schizophrenic 18 year old in an isolation room or a suicidal 16 year old girl is not easy and sometimes even dangerous.
All I’m trying to do here is give people immediately available resources if they’re feeling unwell.
- Comment on Task failed successfully? 10 months ago:
Oh, wow. That’s a different take that I hadn’t considered. I’ll be anyone’s something. Even for a single comment… and that’s way better than nothing.
- Comment on Task failed successfully? 10 months ago:
To anyone who’s feeling down around this time of year, call 911 or 988. Nothing is better than having you around.
- Comment on Scientists show how ‘doing your own research’ leads to believing conspiracies — This effect arises because of the quality of information churned out by Google’s search engine 10 months ago:
SEO and Ai have been very heavy influincers in the degradation of journalistic integrity and reporting facts without dumbing things down for clicks.
It led directly to a more radicalized and less informed public.
The vast majority of people think that the first answer on Google is still correct. That simply isn’t true anymore because people started to game the system and Google let them do it to gain a shitloat of ad money.
It’s disgusting that they don’t have the morals to rein things in.
- Comment on Google develops selfie scanning software ahead of porn crackdown 11 months ago:
That’s why early age sex education is equally important. Porn isn’t going away. Being proactive and teaching that there are ground rules to consent and that “no means no” means something is huge.
There should always be a clear line between experimentation and outright molestation and that’s what modern sex ed should be emphasizing.
“Do you mind if we try this?” or “I saw this in a porno, can we try it?” should be normalized just as much as “When were you last tested?” or the simple “Are you ok with this? We’re about to have sex, right?”
- Comment on Google develops selfie scanning software ahead of porn crackdown 11 months ago:
Good sex as a whole is about experimenting, learning, respect, and, most importantly, consent. I personally wouldn’t have learned how to be a bit creative without some help from porn.
Tips and tricks can lead to more fulfilling relationships.
- Comment on Google develops selfie scanning software ahead of porn crackdown 11 months ago:
I’m not gonna lie, I learned some of my best moves by hitting that “Sure, I’m 18” button back in the day. Or I pirated it. And for previous generations, can you imagine age-blocking a box of porn in the woods?
Kids will find a way around this.
I’m not saying all of it is healthy but it doesn’t necessitate a complete lockdown.
