I would but deftones in horny tbh. Especially on the Queen of the Damned soundtrack. Everyone was horny on that soundtrack.

I'm Danish.

Denmark = the flawed boyfriend who knows he's been letting her down and is trying to fix it.

Greenland = the pretty girl who is tired of her boyfriend's behavior, but wants to make it work because he is trying to improve.

America = the nice guy incel who who used to be Denmark's best friend and thinks he has a chance with the girl.

America doesn't understand that Greenland isn't interested. America doesn't understand that Greenland isn't her boyfriend's property. America doesn't understand that Greenland is her own woman with her own hopes and dreams. She's nothing more than a pretty girl he wants to boost his ego. She keeps telling him that she's trying to work it out with her boyfriend and even if they decide to break up she still doesn't want to be with America.

America = that's just your boyfriend talking. I know you want me.

Proceeds to harrass and stalk her wherever she goes with unwanted advances and ignores her rejections. Makes alphamale threats toward Denmark who is just standing there like "please respect my girlfriend's boundaries."

Tune in next time when we find out if America decides to cross over from stalking and threats to rape and murder or if he finally accepts the rejection.

This meme was made by a "know it all".

I find it funny how all these tech guys all have the same soulless dead eyed stare. To the point where an AI generated portrait looks more human than them.

Honestly, and I may be wrong, I think Thiel is the one who owns everybody. Musk is nothing more than the court jester and he is too narcissistic and stupid to realize how he's as much of a puppet as trump is. Maybe even more so. Thiel is really scary because he's actually smart enough to know how to play the game and keep a semi low profile. I think he's happy Musk steals the show.

It may be a conspiracy and I want to wait and see before I commit to it, but there has been some talk about how Thiel's end goal is to destroy old civilization and create techno states where people like him are the overlords who have complete control and freedom to do as they please without any legislations and restrictions getting in their way. He has been talking about this since 2009, maybe even further back, of how he wants his own techno state that is separate from the laws of the rest of the world.

It sounds so fucking insane to me that I haven't really talked to anyone about it in case I'm just falling for some crazy conspiracy shit, but looking at what they have been doing since trump got into office, it certainly looks like they are in the process of actively and knowingly dismantling and destroying America. Musk said as much: that they were going to tear down and rebuild the nation. But fuck it if I know what the true end goal is. It might as well be a bunch of rich boys who have collectively lost their minds and think they are living in a cool action movie and are too stupid to understand what they are doing.

Dude, I have heard that terrorists breathe. Do you breathe? You may want to check yourself, buddy!

I'm just really surprised by some of the people I have heard say these things about Signal because one is a family member who works in politics and is otherwise really smart and with it. I think the next time we see one another I want to ask him about it because I'm really curious about what he thinks and why he thinks that way. My own experience with Signal has been wonderful. I have only had one chat request from either a scammer or a bot and that's nothing compared to the weird shit I would experience on Facebook, youtube and reddit sometimes. Facebook especially was weird at one point. I would suddenly have people on my friends list I didn't know at all and whom I had no memory of adding. Same with subscriptions to random channels on youtube and constant chat requests from bots on reddit. By that measure, I think Signal is pretty solid in comparison.

The way the media portrays this current goof almost makes it sound like Signal is a dangerous app to use, when it's literally the actions of one asshole who went through all the steps of adding the wrong person. There is no way you're gonna do that by mistake. I downloaded the app so I could keep in contact with my best friend when I left facebook. We live in vastly different countries and don't have each other's phone numbers so it was a bit of an awkward dance back and forth immediately after we downloaded the app and tried to figure out how the fuck you add each other.

If more noobs like me used the app and understood the basics of what it is, they too would realize a few things about this "accident".

Reminds me of how millennials and generations onward have learned less and less maintainence skills to the point where most of us can't sow or fix shit if it's broken because we grew up in a consumer culture where you just buy a new one when the old one breaks. The quality of products have decreased too so they break quicker which gives people incentive to buy a new one instead of fixing.

My parents generation hold on to old items and they patch up their clothes and know how to fix shit around the house but they didn't teach me any of that because the culture shifted and it wasn't really needed.

We are not only losing skills and tactile learning and understanding, we are also rapidly torpedoing out planet into a massive trash heap. Which is a bit of a duh, I know, but still.

I for one have noticed the insane decline in the quality of clothes after covid. It is shockingly shitty now and tears faster than ever. Shirts and leggings I bought ten years ago still hold up while similar shirts and leggings from a few years ago already tear or unravel. It is shocking. I guess this is what will eventually happen to art too.

Put out an arrest on Peter Thiel too, since he is the real puppet master of all this bs.

I dunno man. Depending on the age and person, it can be pretty difficult to get into how computers work. It really isn't as much of a given as we think it is. I'm sure there are some older people who are just lazy, but I don't think it is the case for everybody. Some older people don't use computers unless they have to. They don't spend time on them in their spare time to get more acquainted with how they work. For many it wasn't a part of their lives for the first fifty years they spent on this planet. I'm in my mid 30s and I have areas of modern technology where I have just accepted that I can't and won't keep up because I simply don't have the time, motivation or patience for it. I will learn if it is a necessity, but I also have limits to how many new things I can take in at this point while also having to earn money and pay my bills and maybe live a little on the side. So it is with that in mind that I think it is very much appropriate to cut many older people some slack and maybe have a little bit of empathy for where they are coming from.

Yeah. I think this is a pretty good point you are making there! Zoomers may not understand the tech language we grew up with, but in turn, we don't understand the tech language they have grown up with either. It's kinda like slang. It evolves over time and makes communication between generations awkward haha.

I think, for me, I feel uncomfortable relying so much on the tech doing a lot of the work for me. There is a loss of control in a sense even though it may make life more convenient in some areas (and not in others). It's kinda like having to use a dishwasher for the first time and not really understanding how to operate it and then washing dishes by hand still, because that's what you're comfortable with.

I've heard a few people try and demonize Signal even before this goofy situation by claiming terrorists use it to plan attacks and I'm just sat over here like: yeah? Terrorists have also used youtube, Facebook, Twitter, discord and every other platform under the sun to organize and recruit to their groups.

And now there's this blunder (?) And somehow Signal is bad for the decisions other people make on the app? Which btw, I don't believe for a second that that was an accident. You will have to actually make an effort to add someone to a chat who doesn't belong there.

And I'm sorry, but I think the comment is pretty funny. I dunno. Maybe I'm just completely morally bankrupt or missing the bigger picture, but every negative thing I have heard people say about Signal is just bizarre. I genuinely don't understand what the issue is.

Need I remind anyone of how ISIS used Facebook and messenger in 2018 to post brutal execution videos of two scandinavian girls around Christmas and sending that shit to everyone on the girls' friends lists? As much as I hate Facebook I wouldn't dream of blaming them for some subhuman scum abusing their service for nefarious reasons.
