I literally just had a friend tell me he joined Threads and how neat it was, etc etc and when I explained why I wouldn’t be joining him, he basically just gave me the old “Well I already know they have all my information so it doesn’t matter”

…like wtf? So you just…give up having any privacy whatsoever? I just couldn’t respond to him after that, I don’t really know how to respond to that. There’s a disease spreading in the world unfortunately and it isn’t just COVID. It’s one called Apathy and too many people are coming down with it.

Ok, but only if I get to make the next post that complains about people complaining about people who complain about Reddit. Or…something.

*Donaghy, and at least Jack had Liz to act as a moral compass/course correction. David is just another asshat CEO with no moral or ethical scruples.

I know Reddit would have a field day if I said this over there, and maybe here would too, but…

Should be more like “Fascists go kill yourselves” because fuck fascists.

It’s weird to think about but for some reason that’s my favorite go-to exclamation when I’m genuinely shocked at something.

“What in the Cinnamon Toast Crunch is that?!”

I used to be a frequent poster/commenter on OCR and the lesser known parody site OverLooked Remix way back in the day. It always warms my heart to see that site still going strong and seeing remixes from it used during Speedrun marathons on twitch

Which begs the questions: What comes next? How does late stage capitalism “end”? Will it collapse in on itself? What will replace it? I don’t know the answers to these, but it certainly feels like we’re entering (or about to enter) the “find out” phase.

I posted a similar comment elsewhere but along the same line of thought: The sad thing is that the masses that are still on Reddit at this point dgaf and will likely stay on Reddit forever. There’s a real problem of Apathy in today’s culture when people are just jonesing for their fix of daily content/memes, or at the very least nothing that disrupts the status quo. They don’t give a fuck about “ideals” or what corporations do or farm from them so long as their instant gratification and daily intake of said content remains unchanged.

Turns out one of the users they alienated was Morn. He was their best customer. And his stomach was full of latinum.
