  • Kind of. As long as you understand that people like me exist.

    I ordered a big mac from McDonalds one time. I got a chicken sandwich instead.

    I was sitting inside. I could easily have went back to the counter and said something.

    Instead, I just went with it. Guess I’m having a chicken sandwich today!

    Now, that being said, I also don’t use AI. So, I would have never noticed it being down. But hypothetically, if I tried to use AI, and it didn’t work, I’d just do something else instead.

    So it won’t be the number of complaints = the number of users affected. But it does give you somewhat of a scale.






  • I always thought there should have been a sitcom called “Hi my name is James Earl Jones”.

    It stars James Earl Jones as a megawealthy celebrity who goes around poor towns and tries to use his celebrity status to help the local poor population. Never realizing that people don’t recognize his face, and they’re only nice to him because they’re nice and welcoming of everybody. In reality his celebrity status has no bearing, because they don’t know who he is. They just know him as big tall black guy named James.

    I’d watch that show.




  • Ok…hear me out. We all join ICE, but then we BARELY do our jobs. And we agree to do whatever they say. Then we don’t do it. We clog up the system from the inside with insubordination. But we do it in a way that makes them think we’re trying to follow orders, and are just really really stupid.

    “Ok Johnson, shoot the brown guy!”

    shoots 15 feet above the brown guy into a brick wall behind him

    “YEAH!!! I DID IT!!!”

    “NO YOU DIDN’T!!! HE’S GETTING AWAY!!!”

    “DON’T YELL AT ME MISTER MAN!!! DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM??? I’M ICE!!!”

    “We’re all ICE…and he got away!”

    “Is that good?”

    “NO THAT’S NOT GOOD!!!”

    “Did he win the race?”

    “What race???”

    “Uhhhhh…Formula 1?”

    “What?”

    “Vroom vroom!!!”

    “What is wrong with you???”

    “My father used to punish me severely.”

    We just gotta act like idiots who mean well in their racist system, but keep screwing up.

    But here’s the main thing…we DON’T kill people. Even if they fire us in 2 weeks, we will have clogged up their little system, drained their budget, and made the whole thing a mess.



  • I mean…cis hetro white guy here. Pretty sure everyone on earth has PTSD from general daily life.

    At work, or in public people will greet each other by saying “hey, hows it going”. The expected reply is “good”. I’ve taken to cheerily replying like this:

    “Hey, hows it going?”

    “Everyday is a new horror of unspeakable atrocities!”

    And so far everybody just laughs and nods their heads and says “yeah…yeah…”

    I don’t think anybody anywhere is ok. I’m 42, and never have felt happyness in my life, and have been thinking about it a lot these past few years. With all that reflection, I’ve come to the conclusion that I never have had, and never will have happyness. All of this is by design.

    The rich aren’t happy because they try to create happyness through wealth, but once you pass a certain point of wealth, more money has zero impact on your daily life.

    The middle class isn’t happy because their existence is being wiped out. Some go from middle class to wealthy. Most go from middle class to poor.

    The poor aren’t happy because they’re being phased out of buying basic living needs and health services.

    And the homeless are more often than not riddled with so many mental health issues that they often don’t have a grasp on what is even happening around them.

    We’re all being pushed down by the wealthy, who are chasing their happyness through means that will never make them happy.

    Only 40-50 more years of living in misery…
