  • Eating disorders are a good example of how online spaces can spread mental illness like a virus. Individuals with ED’s often have this insatiable urge to post ED propaganda online, much like rabies makes it’s victims have the urge to bite people. It is how the virus perpetuates itself.

    Sometimes ED will arrive organically in an individual without digital exposure to it, but some people only acquire it because they literally fell down an online rabbit hole. Very similar to MAGA in terms of being a digital mind-virus

    Absolutely. Bio-chemistry, astrophysics, imaging, diagnostic testing…

    Everybody is stuck on how it can make text/video/pictures which is neat but not nearly as useful. This will just be used for porn/scams/ads overwhelmingly.

    However, parsing huge datasets and extrapolating impossible to detect patterns and subsequent correlation of seemingly unrelated phenomena is going to be lit 🔥




  • Cats are really big on consent. As a dog person this is unusual to me. Dogs are sluts for everyone. I can basically go and touch almost any dog I see out in public and it appreciates me for it.

    Man … If you touch a nice lil kitty they can get real nasty. Even if they appear friendly and affectionate at first they can just slap your hand with their nails right outta nowhere.










  • I’m on my local strata council and from the earliest meetings discovered my nemesis who is there for exactly the opposite purpose of me. I want a permissive atmosphere that doesn’t look for trouble and only responds to actual problems instead of nitpicking to create unnecessary trouble.

    My nemesis, on the other hand, is somebody who I believe can only get an erection by covertly causing another human being frustration and torment. By getting myself on council he cannot get rid of me nor can he use his power to abuse me. I have a small but dedicated power base that hates this guy and they all give me their proxy votes at the AGM specifically because I am supposed to sit on him and keep him down as much as possible. If I ever move than someone else will need to take over the job of sitting on him so he doesn’t think he has power.


  • Liberal tolerance is such a defacto default that people who would be hard done by a white christofascist America end up signing up for it because they assume it will include the same rights and freedoms they currently enjoy.

    Also every trans Trumper believes they will be the token accepted trans person in the far-right. Same as some Jews cosied up to the Nazis to extract personal privilege at the expense of snitching on their own people only to end up at the exact same end-game anyways.
