I like going out in nature or listening to music. One of the best trips I ever had, I spent curled up in a blanket listening to the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater soundtrack.

Forums and YouTube remain the main forms of social media. No Facebook or anything of the like.

We’re Trying from SNL is my favorite turnabout around this culture.

Your link got censored, I think.

Kinda? They donate to the Salvation Army and have had several scandals over the years due to discrimination based on faith.

That said, they are also like the only corporation to stand firm and keep implementing DEI policies despite criticism from their purported base market.

…what?

Demonise is a bit strong. They’re just offering an alternate interpretation that’s more negative than yours.

I think it has some merit. A lot of people are forced out of a work/life balance. I’ve tried to stay out of careers that demand my whole life, and I still get sucked into doing nothing but working from time to time. That’s life.

I can appreciate the fact that Beatrice has clearly stopped caring about the corporate machine, and that the author is trying to convey that we could all be the same, while still recognizing that the implication of the comic is a little half-baked due to the fact that the real-life financial capabilities of the working class are usually decided by how much they brown-nose and eat shit at work.

This sets two people up as enemies when one could be teaching and the other could be learning. Instead, they’re locked in a battle of semantics. The comic has a little bit to analyze, I think. This discussion could even go further.

If you’ve never had to strip down for a hardcore shit I envy you and your perfect fiber consumption.

It depends on how you define prisoner.

For some reason, I’ve been thinking about that stupid-ass Kamala Harris quote recently.

“You think you just fell out of a coconut tree?”

Fuck, she annoys me. But that’s honestly pretty astute. I believe we are inseparable from our upbringing as it gave us the lens through which we view the world. Even when you go against the grain, you have to draw from your experiences to know what not to do.

So, is one a prisoner? Only so much as one’s experience is a prisoner of oneself. It’s a give and take. Everyone comes into this world unable to meaningfully impress upon it, and so we are formed by those initial experiences that we cannot choose or define. Those experiences inform our actions which inform our future experiences and so on and so forth.

At the end of the day, I think we’re just truly reactionary beings. I believe we’ve just been reacting to the experience of the universe since we popped up in it. I’ve yet to see a single human creation that wasn’t a reaction to a condition or behavior.

Mother Necessity, some call it. But I think we can see in other sentient creatures the experience, act, experience pattern as well. We’re just fully sapient so we get to struggle with concepts such as fate.

Where’s 3.50?

I usually use a razor blade to scrape all those fuckers off anyway. Don’t want any spikies poking my motherboard!

Don’t let AI Jackie find out…

I’m surprised Avowed made the cut and not TOW2. TOW2 is sci fi Avowed and I loooove it.

I see, children.
