I would wager he wasn’t paying attention. I wonder how many social media posts he made during that?
- Comment on One major issue with social media is that it operates on a first come, first served basis. This essentially rules out the possibility of well-considered, well-researched content being successful. 2 weeks ago:

I know I should not engage, but you want to compare the richest country in the world to some of the poorest? Intellectual dishonesty is the least of your crimes.

I can totally see that commercial, sandwiched between an ad for legal drugs, and another for lawyers. I only know one country where those are common.

Whoa, slow down on the jargon there , Matt.

But isn’t it the article about the negligent article that is paywalled?

But not for lack of choice, that’s the point here.
- Comment on Social media sites should have 'reverse' Parental Controls; where adult children can block their boomer/senior parents' accounts from viewing conspiracy and radicalizing content. 2 months ago:
Very good idea there. I’m starting to have to keep track of my parents passwords (because they don’t) and removing spam/disinformation from their Facebook/email/YouTube regularly might resolve many issues.
Like someone mentioned, shoveling the shit. Can’t stopped it from getting there, but I can remove it.

True. I also wanted a senior mode on Apple family groups.

Aren’t they just releasing anything, just to avoid copyrights expiring?

Not specifically, also any and all social media. Influencers in general are a cancer on society

I love your take. And extrapolating from it a bit, a lot of what we consider ‘artists’ weren’t really making ‘art’, as you define it. They were (and mostly still are) drawing/painting, etc pictures as a means to an end. For money; and now they are mad or worried or scared (with reason) about losing their livelihood. Because a cheaper, not necessarily better but certainly with a better cost/benefit ratio, comes along.

Hmmm, how do you minimize the risk of peeing on your own face?

Which may be a feature if you want/need total darkness to sleep.

Same. Maybe we suffer from the same malady? Let me know if you ever get a diagnosis.

I clean it anyway, so the efficiency from standing is a free gain to me.
I think you mean you sit down so you don’t have to clean it? (Or not as often)

And I mean someone who claims cigarettes don’t cause cancer are financially responsible if anyone who smokes a cigarette gets cancer. No need to prove they watched the channel or started smoking after seeing their video.
