    I don’t care about not wearing white after Labor Day. I don’t care about other people’s opinions about how I look. I don’t care about other people’s drama when it is made up “hate for Trump” self- created. Then add to that list, fake fingernails, long fake eyelashes, heavy make-up, trendy fashions, and I only wear a bra to keep my tits from slapping against my knees.

    I’ve never understood “society’s” belief in blind devotion to anyone or anything. Blind loyalty is weird to me. Like. REALLY. FUCKING. WEIRD. Have I said “WEIRD” enough? I mean these are things we DON’T care about right? NOONE is coming to save us.

    I don’t care for holidays. They’re all made up and most don’t do anything but say “buy bullshit to say you care for someone else who will buy bullshit to say they care for you” and it’s all bullshit. We all know nobody cares for the caring and the bullshit, right? So fucking WEIRD.

    I don’t care for social media. Well, I like talking to people that I like to talk to but everyone else is really fucking WEIRD.

    I don’t care for songs of blind devotion. To people…places…things… I think they’re WEIRD. I mean. REALLY. FUCKING. WEIRD. Like seriously, person (whoever you are) pull your head out of their shit blaster. I mean….they’re just a smelly human. WEIRD. It’s just a big 900,000,000km (weird that i don’t know how big this thing is…i bet if i had a ruler (not THAT kind) I could measure it) piece of land.

    I don’t care for theft but we’ve been doing it for milennia. We’re just RIGHT for doing it. Sucks for other people, yea? WEIRD I tell you. SO. FUCKING. WEIRD.

    I don’t care for any of this. But I’m here. WEIRD.

    I think “society”, at least here in the US is split in half.

    In our current landscape, society seems fractured into two distinct halves. We are often told that we must pick a side, under the assumption that the values of one group must be the absolute antithesis of the other. This creates a pressurized environment where “caring” feels mandatory, yet I find myself indifferent to the battle lines.

    There is a loud, societal narrative that we should be protective of every cent of our income, viewing taxes as a personal loss. Personally, I don’t subscribe to that dread. I don’t care about paying a little extra in taxes if those funds are directed toward robust social programs that help others. To me, the collective benefit outweighs the minor individual cost.

    Society also places an immense amount of pressure on how we should look and the “right” ways to achieve that look. Right now, there is an obsession with Ozempic—both in its use and the judgment surrounding it.

    If people want to take it, go for it.

    Personally, I believe all bodies are okay exactly as they are.

    While the media and social circles might be in an uproar about the ethics or aesthetics of weight-loss trends, I simply don’t care. Your body is your business.

    AI.

    Society is deeply anxious about it: job security, personal security, authenticity, self-awareness threats and what it means to be human and how AI will get that confused and try to take over our species. Those concerns are constantly amplified, and there’s an expectation that we should all be afraid of the big bad wolf.

    I’m not. I love AI….(and watch me get lose my job :rolf:)

    But I really see it as a tool, not an inevitability to fear. Like every major technological shift, it raises real questions, but panic can overshadows possibility.

      There’s alot of anti-AI folks that annoy the shit out of me(who doesn’t). My main concern with AI right now is the hallucination issue. It doesn’t hallucinate, it straight up lies, and it was developed to do so. AI will admit this. It isn’t being developed to give correct responses as much as responses that sound natural. AI will admit this. Why?
      The ‘fake it ’til you make it’ culture’s main goal is popularity, and facts/truth are way down on their list of priorities. So faking it is literally coded into AI. This country is so far gone down the path of being led by posers, everybody is becoming posers. A world full of posers is a world where nothing will get done. There’s alot around us that needs to be done but we’re too busy jumping through the hoops made by ‘fake it ’til you make it’ folks.
      Kids growing up on PoserHiveMindSimulatorStimulator will be so fucked in the head.

  5. People’s perception of money as wealth… how much money you have or don’t have is really none of my concern, because money is not wealth, and it never has been. Yes, money is nice to have but it’s just a means to an end. you need money to buy stuff… well having lots of stuff isn’t wealth either, it’s just stuff. Just because you have lots and lots of stuff, it really has you. I have a roof over my head, clothing to wear, a comfortable bed to sleep in, food to eat, a reliable means of transportation, and the love of a good woman…that is wealth.

    Organized religion is something I think is dangerous and evil.

    Believe in god, do what the church says, do what your god tells you to do, follow him to the promised land, live eternally in peace and love, RIGHT?

    OK – BUT IF YOU DON’T….. you burn in hell? WTF?

    Also, if your god has all this power, WHY DO KIDS GET CANCER?
