Why would you use AI to make this?

To think that I used to get mad at people who used Snapchat to add text to images. Didn’t know how good I had it

I obviously don’t know your location but look at things like Nissan hardbodies/early frontiers or Mazda B3000s. The latter of which are literally just 90s Ford Rangers (Rangers were rebadged Mazdas)

Why not save 10k and get an Impreza instead? Literally the same car with less LARPing plastic cladding and a lift that kills mpg

Same. Just feels so… gluttonous? Lazy? Like, I really feel disgusted at myself if I realize I’ve been sitting watching TV for more than an hour or two

Makes sense, Nicotine is a mild stimulant. We give soldiers meth today

Indeed. Also, “compact,” what is this, 2010?? Don’t exist anymore. You can either choose between fuckhuge trugg or fuckhuge sedan. Even our compacts are bigger than 90s four-doors (and sold as either top-spec luxury sports models or tin cans on wheels that nobody should be driving)

The cheapest cars start at like $25k anyway and depreciate much faster than a truck/full-size. Plus fuel cost is massively subsidized. I’ve seen even eco-conscious friends of mine get FlexFuel F150s because it just doesn’t make sense to buy a small car. It’s like movie theatre popcorn pricing

Counterpoint: when I worked at Panda Express, I used to leave fake reviews on our store about how helpful and professional pp_boy_ was because I wanted a raise. Never did it on any accounts attached to my name though.

The single most British headline I’ve ever read

Some people just want to have their cake and complain about it used to taste better but is also 1m closer to them than a different cake (that tastes exactly like the old one because it was made by the same bakers who made the first one who got let go during a “restructuring” period at the first cake’s dev firm)… , too.

All of that could happen and it still wouldn’t mean shit in a federated system. One instances gets big and turns to shit, so what?

Sounds like catbox.moe to me

The oldest Zoomers turn 29 this year.

One of the strangest phenomenon of the obesity epidemic has been the gross infantilization of young, fit adult women as being “teens” just because they don’t have the “+10yr perceived age” effect that comes with years of obesity.

Yeah… I’ll take the two on the left who aren’t dying of heart disease at 35.

Surely no coincidence that being obese is a gateway to hyperconsumerism anyway. Sugary, fatty, processed snack foods are way more profitable than healthy meals.

Walking around town is free, can’t have that. Sit at this computer chair, watch advertisements and play video games instead.

Heart disease at 26? That’ll be $2k/month until you die.

Get depressed, buy the meds, never leave your couch, don’t fight back, you’re the evolution of humanity and - most of all - you are beautiful.

Mans thinks he broke the laws of conservation of mass and that’s why he’s still fat

Oh yeah I’ve seen that one many times. Girl shoots her younger brother playing with the loaded gun, panics, then shoots herself and falls to the floor. Video ends with the parents(?) busting through the door screaming. It’s a doozy

thus the inevitable occurs. (Emphasis added)

The prerequisite for joining such hyperindividualistic ideologies is the belief that you’re better/more important than others, that the work of others can’t be depended on (“if you want it done right, you’ve got to to it yourself” fallacy mindset).

So:

Why do people continue to adopt this seemingly futile approach? It’s akin to watching 5,000 parachutists attempt a failed jump from the Eiffel Tower, only for newcomers to keep trying despite knowing, or perhaps ignoring, the inevitable outcome. Despite the growing pile of mangled bodies at the base of the tower, every day people decide to climb up and try for themselves.

“Well duh, those people failed because they weren’t me!”

Good thing we’re investing in cost-efficient renewable energies that pay for themselves after like two years, right?
