The horrors that are to come on partially on your head.

Of course it’s a fucking issue! Do you think it will be better now that Netanyahu got the person be wanted in the white house?! My god how short sighted are you!

Additionally, if you did not vote for Harris I will judge you.

And if a frog had side pockets, he’d carry a handgun.

I judge people who judge others for gatekeeping. God forbid I have a well informed and strong opinion based on experience. If I share that with a casual or new person then it’s now called gatekeeping.

It’s ok to have different opinions but not all opinions are equal, and if you’re a casual participant or new to a field/hobby/whatever your opinion doesn’t matter as much. Additionally, if you are discouraged and feel held back by strong opinions by others then maybe you should be kept out.

Nah I’m good

Mines and quarries

It was legit the last time I bought a game from them, 10 years ago

It’s a general feeling of dread of the weekend ending and having to go back to work on Monday. Some people let it ruin their Sundays.

Thr scaries start for me once it gets close to noon and the day no longer feels young. The feeling that the day is lost merges with a similar feeling about life, which urges me to do something, anything, with my time.

That’s when I usually get a burst of productivity that lasts until it’s 5pm. The weekend is gone and it’s time to enter self care mode. That usually means good food and entertainment in one form or another. As it gets dark I’ll start trying to stop time with booze or a bit of weed as I indulge myself with sports or a movie.

I will often go to bed early so I can be all cozy and in a safe space to go down a wikipedia hole, read a book, listen to music and just veg in general.

Once the day is actually over the scaries usually have disappeared oddly enough.

I don’t know the wider context of that passage but to me it’s self evident that it’s just an innocent child trying to understand what adults are talking about. It says more about his grandmother than him.

I believe there’s a possibility Vance is trans or gay, but I’m not a fan of that passage being used as evidence.

Maybe. The people who have always said 30 years were scientists and engineers. Those now saying 5 to 10 years are VC backed startups.

Progress is definitely being made but I’ll believe the optimists when I see the results.

Me: what’s that mean?

Them: age sex and where you’re from ;)

Me: 13/m

Them: do you have a bush yet?

Me: A bush? What do you mean?

Literally my first interaction in a chat room.

Of course, but the percentage of capable zoomers who are actually tech savvy is much smaller than millenials, for the reasons already stated.

Just the other day I witnessed a zoomer grad student who didn’t know how to use a file explorer on his new windows laptop because he had grown up with an iPad and iPhone.

Anyone want to cyber?

Because it’s a small world. You could very well have to interact with former colleagues again or have your behavior shared with others.

This has been a popsci fantasy for a quarter of a century or more. Google tried it and gave up.
