You’re not alone at all. The old Internet died the day Facebook became the dominant social media app and gave the corpo their first real foothold into the digital sphere since the Dot Com Bust. It’s not a space for free expression and information sharing anymore. Now it’s all fucking ads, slop, and grifting.

I’m American. You have full permission to shit on us whenever you want. This place fucking sucks.

It’s strange. I’m wearing sunglasses right now and it looks white and gold but when I take them off it looks blue and black.

Failing upwards: the true mark of genius.

I can read a whole coloring book in 4 hours.

Imagine believing using scuffed AI output for your work is a flex.

The amount of people in this thread willing to go to bat for a corporate-owned entity is fucking weird.

The Contemporary Christian Music industry is brimming with scumbags like Tait. I’ve read interviews with artists and bands who left it and they have all said largely the same thing: everyone is full of shit and no less hedonistic as their mainstream industry counterparts. They just up the ante with a patina of hypocritical self-righteousness.

Youtube acting like it has anything to offer aside slop and people who think they’re philosopher kings because they play video games.

AdNauseum. Not only does it block ads but it also fucks with advertisers by sending false clicks that cost them money.

Any critique of capitalism that ignores this aspect of exploitation is bullshit.

I think it’s appropriate given your blase attitude towards the suffering non-human animals.

I beg to differ.

Labor organization and demonstrating happens all the time. The doo-doo ass in Chief just called in the fucking stormtroopers to deal with the now two-day long demonstration against ICE and mass deportation in L.A…

Wicca and paganism in general has always had those cornball types. Back in the 70s and 80s, every tool who renamed themselves after a cool animal and weather condition/celestial body claimed to have a grandparent who secretly initiated them into an ancient unbroken lineage of witches. In the 90s and 00s, it was appropriation gone wild with white ladies from Iowa claiming they had a lineage in closed religious communities like conjure and Vodou. Now it’s fucking deluded 20-somethings on TikTok who “godspouse” or work with Naruto characters.
