It was a stupid impulse buy, yes…

Aw, that’s the best part. I love paying with my ridiculous smart watch that I didn’t need.

Most self checkouts use cameras and AI where I am.

I judge it by the fact that young people tend to blame their elders for the problems in the world. The only way to really know what will happen is to wait and see I suppose!

You think making fun of murdered kids is valid criticism?

Not sure I follow.

Lol, send my kids to another country? Most of us here live paycheck to paycheck. Real talk? I took my kid out of school. Besides the threats of violence, public school in the US is a joke. I was homeschooled and I still ended up better educated than most people I know my age, without even really trying…

I vote Democrat down the line, what other suggestions do you have in mind?

You won’t, you’re all perfect of course! All the best commercials tell you so, to say nothing of the most reliable source, one another!

Nice theory, but as the parent of a teenager, younger generations don’t tend to think highly of their elders no matter what. It’s kind of human nature. I predict that Millennials and Gen Z will absolutely be disliked by the generations afterwards, just as Boomers and Gen X are disliked by Millennials and Gen Z. For that matter, love Gen Z all you want, Millennials, just don’t expect it to return the favor. Every generation thinks it’s better than the ones that came before. Ever heard of hippies? Yeah, they were gonna save the world from everyone over 30. Now we just call them Boomers.

Ooh, another low-effort America bashing post. Bonus for joking about murdered kids. Slow clap, very impressive.

That last point is really interesting. Conservatives and right-wingers can’t grasp that other people don’t think like they do. I remember during the January 6th insurrection how all the people doing it really seemed to believe they would be seen as heroes. It’s like they had no idea over half of the US didn’t agree with them.

Yeah, a bunch of them were Covid deniers who ran to the hospitals when they got sick and clogged them up for responsible people. Buncha faithless hypocrites, just stay home and follow God’s Plan…

How dare you?

Meh, if it drops it drops. I’ll never have the relationship to social media I used to, because I don’t want it anymore. If Lemmy can give me a few posts a day of things I might not normally see, that’s enough for me. It doesn’t need to be the next Reddit or whatever. After quitting Reddit I’m getting back into things I haven’t done in years. I don’t need that again.

In my experience, someone who claims to be in the middle is actually on the right but has miraculously realized that makes them an asshole in today’s political climate so they pretend to be “in the middle”.

Lol

Anyone remember Gattaca? Terrible movie.

Have you expressed insecurity with your size? It sounds like she’s trying to reassure you.

Not all of us, including myself, were destined to be porn stars, my friend. If it’s a relationship based on more than physical attraction, it shouldn’t matter. And there are lots of ways to please a partner… :P

So we want people to have an equal outcome. That’s perfectly fine, and something I fully support. The difference is that no one in the right image has to be treated badly for everyone to be happy. If we accept that, in the abstract and lacking full context of possible consensual behavior between adults, objectifying people sexually is treating people badly, then we shouldn’t want it for anyone, nor find it amusing.
