Can we get an exception asterisk next to Bernie's name? That man could be 500 years old and I'd still vote for him if given the chance.

I've just never understood parents who post pictures of their children when they're upset or doing something that they might later find embarrassing. It was bad enough for me looking at some of my old photos with family, I'd be mortified if they'd have been posted online. The fairest thing to do is to only share photos privately with family and to let kids share photos themselves when they're old enough to have a social media account.

It's especially annoying that so many people that actually don't have mental issues make videos to get likes and pity about being "neurodivergent", even though they just like to complain. Neurodivergent is an umbrella term and about as precise as saying "I have an allergy". What kind, against almonds, pollen or shellfish? Same goes with mental illnesses, it's a long way between ADHD and PTSD, both of which go under this umbrella. I've come to the point that I don't believe it anymore when someone says neurodivergent and can't elaborate on what they actually have.

This really shouldn't be legal.

The internet is also not particularly concerned with raising a child, or doing it right. Kids raised by phones tend to be extremely entitled because algorithms specifically try to put all of us into the bubble that agrees the most with us, so we never hear anyone saying we are wrong.

Just recently saw a video about some game that was made non-fuctional by the developers just because they decided its support had ended. Refunds? Ha ha, are you crazy?

For anyone, not just for teens. The fact that this post specifies teens just shows how much it's become normalised fo adults.

Remember the guy who carved his name into the Colleseum using his keys? 😡

Also Alpha male isn't a thing in wolf packs

I didnt know about this trend until today, saw a tv investigation on a french chanel (available on YouTube : france tv/enquete) And I need to say this is SICK These guys talk about r*ping and k*lling women ! I'm disgusted

Tatertots who listen to Andrew Tate and Joe Rogan. Enabling the entire spectrum of toxic male behavior. Tate is obviously evil, but Rogan doesn't get called out enough for enabling stupidity and constantly putting the burden of education on others and requiring that every concept be spoon fed to him. That and distorting truth by treating everything like one side vs the other side, like Climate change. He puts one scientist and one moron on his show and pretends like it's a 50/50 issue instead of a 99.9/0.1 issue, thus enabling every entitled male a chance to ignore any facts they don't like

"Alpha Males" are a huge joke xD especially because they think it means treating women like s**t

Anyone who has to tell people they are an "Alpha Male" most likely isn't and Alpha male.

Alpha male c**p yes is garbage. The red pill movement just means you are waking up to how screwed up the world actually is. Fake news, rampant medical malpractice, owned politicians, etc...

Primatologist Frans de Waal - creator of the term - Alpha male was debunked and now it can also be a figure admired for empathy and protectiveness not just strength or intimidation, which is often synonymous for "bully." Also, she studies primates, not dogs - thus alpha dog is NOT a thing. I do wish those stupid tiktoker misogynistic "dating gurus" would go away.

The problem with any kind of 'speak' is that when it's used so frequently and in ways it's not meant to be used that it loses its meaning and people will tune out.

That is why many city councils are now clamping down on AirBnBs.

We have fake grass, but that’s because we live in the desert. In the front, everything is rocks and desert vegetation, our “side yard” is fake grass so our son could play. We had real grass in both places when we bought the house with irrigation set up, but we took that all out. I’m thinking that’s better to not waste water. I’m also thinking I don’t understand what exactly micro fibers are. 🤔

One of my friends has a mom like this. She’s eighteen, but her mom won’t let her drive, barely let her hang out with friends without supervision, still picks out her clothing, still makes her cut and style her hair a certain way. Hell, her mom even tries to shave her still (she’s trans). I’m so worried for her when she leaves that hellhole because she has almost no life skills.

I have found myself doing it. So, when I get the urge, I just go to something that isn't important, and scroll through the ridiculous comments. Right now I'm all about the INANE bickering that surrounds Superman, James Gunn and Zack Snyder.

See Nestle taking as much public water as possible, especially in drought stricken areas

Ahhh...I remember that little dopamine hit when someone interacted with something id posted on FB or insta. But it did more harm than good in the long run, I quit in the early days of the pandemic and it's been so much better for my mental health.

I was lucky enough to not grow up with modern devices, and still become very, very nearsighted...

I absolutely HATE watching something and in the background is some subway surfers or Minecraft parcours going on. Stop dividing my attention, I don't give a f- about this s**t, I just want to hear the information said.

Nothing new here. "Teenyboppers" first appeared in the 1960s and 70s, with many young girls of that generation defining themselves by whether they liked Donny Osmond, David Cassidy or the Bay City Rollers (and others, of course, who came and went over time). Only one was allowed to be liked by any one girl at any one time.

I realise that people buy from websites, like the one that uses a lot of bold orange and starts with the letter T, but all this cheap, marketed to buy more due to low prices is simply consumerism to the extreme. Buy somthing, buy something, buy anything! All. The. Time. And influencers? Seriously, don't get me started on what I think of influencers....

In the UK 'artisanal' and speciality gins have been big and still growing for the last 20 years or so. They go on and on about them, but then when they drink them they _always_ mix them with a disgusting fizzy bitter-sweet concoction known as Tonic Water (OK, probably about 99.5% of the time - I actually like gin without it and I can't be the only one). What the hell is the point of adding all those flavours and aromatics to the gin if you're just going to overpower them before you drink the stuff?

If any age group has zero need for skincare products, it's precisely the kids. Why do they do this?

This is already happening.

Subjective opinion, but I think it looks unnatural.

Oh are we there again?

And we did it willingly. The main reason social media trade with our data is because we LET them do it.

What disturbed me most was seeing a science proposal written by ChatGPT. The only time I've ever seen a document that was 300% total garbage. The proposal had three independent and incompatible parts, each one of which was 100% garbage. It reminded me of a saying I had 30 years ago. "Artificial Intelligence is for people who have no natural intelligence".

Gambling in general. Every other ad everywhere is a gambling ad of some kind. 🤔

I think a big part in that was that the support for Flash applications were cancelled a few years ago

Veneers in general

That is literally my JOB. Can't really get out of that.

One of the effects of ozempic is to regulate insulin which is why it is prescribed for non-insulin dependent diabetics i.e. those with type 2 diabetes. It also slows down emptying of the stomach making you feel less hungry for longer, hence the impact on weight management which is why it is being mis-used as a miracle weight loss d**g, That is why there is a world-wide shortage of the d**g and why DM2 patients cannot find a reliable supply.
