We don't send you surveys to find out how satisfied you were with the driver who put your parcel in the bin just before it was emptied. We just need to maximise the opportunities for you to accept cookies so we can track you and sell data.

On the Scavengers Reign planet, you eat this little guy and he reconstitutes himself, and starts piloting you from the inside.
He keeps you conscious, makes you kill your sleeping companions, then shit his seeds into the wounds. Unfortunately for your shattered psyche, it feels orgasmic.

Every Super Bowl ad is for the door in the forest. It’s annoying. “You must walk through the door.” Yeah thanks, I know that already. I dream of the door every night

Any time a company has to "make a statement", it means they're sweating. Cook them
Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)

It’s also a Romanticizing isolation.
Why do you need a ring as opposed to talking to the neighbor?
Also because well moderator brain and DV brain
It’s possibly incentivizing a new method of breaking boundaries and abuse

“No matter how Ring and other surveillance tech companies may downplay it, there’s no world in which finding lost dogs is the final end-use for this technology.”
Opinion | Ring is using lost dogs to make the surveillance state adorable
The same technology the Amazon-owned company uses to find lost dogs could easily be turned against their owners.

Why are so many platforms punishing adults for wanting to be adults instead of just making parental controls and telling parents to monitor their own kids.
Why is discord rolling out a "teen by default" mandatory ID system. Why the fuck do you need that information. Why are you making this my issue

It could be really bad for Discord if Californians contact the office of the Attorney General to report the potential violations of CCPA and CALOPPA citing the recent breach from a few months back where 1.5tb of user data and millions of IDs were leaked, but who can say for sure?
Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month

"Why do you care if you have to ID yourself online you have to ID if you go into a bar irl or buy booze or go into a sex shop"
Yeah cool but the cashier behind the counter at the sex shop doesn't log my full government name, age, height, gender and birth place if I go in there to buy a dildo.

Remember that @mikestabile.bsky.social myself, & many SWs, discussed the harm of age verification laws as written, and how they harm SWs, users, and undermine internet freedoms. This is all an effort to do large scale government surveillance.

Hi. It's the eugenicism from the wellness industry leaking and highlighting that we live in a eugenicist society, which has been obsessed with control and discipline of bodies and their "control" for several centuries. Fundamentally, a reactionary response.
starting to feel like there's a direct relationship between the growing obsession with lifestyle hygeine (no drinking, no caffeine, no sex, obsessive working out and looksmaxxing) and the inability to meaningful moral stands on issues of actual import
Cafes across the U.S. are embracing the low- and no-caffeine lifestyle, with options that are a far cry from dusty tea bags and rewarmed decaf. nyti.ms/3XKlqoj
