Speaking of lack of imagination…

“They were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”

I would label the “they” as human beings, rather than this country or that.

A comment from a reader of that article said: “Running some real ‘Gandalf the White/Twitter as it was meant to be’ energy.”

And I can agree.

In our time, squeezing everyone for their worth is all there is left for these people to get rich. They’ve run out of ways to squeeze and so are going for the last hurrah.

Just found out about Stop Killing Games from Path of Titans releasing a skin where proceeds go to this cause! I of course am now a proud owner of the skin.

Not every idea is valuable.

I hate to break it to you but… they’re not really “information machines”. Google search is a better information machine.

I won’t have sex unless my partner is holding one of these

These days? Really?

Nothing like a call for empathy from the morally bankrupt.

Someone commented a reply which I thought worthy of highlighting:

“I need privacy, not because my actions are questionable, but because your judgement and intentions are.”

Our culture disintegrates every time we choose convenience over everything.

I left Spotify for many reasons including this. They’ve only proven that they do not care about artists at all. I remember before I left, many of the tracks that came up “based on my playlist” were just random AI generated crap.

Can someone explain how the demographic of people who loved to park their gas guzzlers to purposefully block tesla charging stations are now Musk fanboys all of a sudden?

I’m not speaking for myself. I live a life that does not depend on Amazon at all. I’m just saying for those that have a hard time with letting go of habits that currently use Amazon, taking small steps gives chance for bigger steps that make a difference over time.

It’s never easy to go cold turkey. It’s much easier to create lasting change after first trying things in smaller doses.

And I bet, if you try living without Amazon for a week, you’ll find replacements and it’ll be easier to move away from them long-term

Exactly.

You and me both my friend. ✊

So much has manifested in the ripple effects from the pursuit of great things.
