  • How my Dad describes his family growing up.

  • I was cured! 10/10, would whatever this is again.

  • Are y'all going to ignore the most obvious one?

    Runner Up - Santa Claus, AZ. Totally NOT the North Pole

  • Fun fact: A zip code, gender, and a DOB is enough to have an 85% chance of it being you. It's a very well-studied area. You are de-anonymized with very little data exposed, all of which Google includes in ad auctions.

  • Your data is exfiltrated and sold for ads. You don't even need to buy an ad, bidders on ads can see your data

  • Lol at this total free thought revolution taking place in substack.

    Buy it is nice to see general upheaval at web 2.0 bullshit. Burn the gardens, topple the walls!

    The reasons not to trust Google are as old and numerous as the trees.

  • Apple and Google are to blame. Don't blame the unaware for the sins of the unethical.

    Plus, don't blame me, I hide my SSID and it ends in the magic _nomap that prevents this stupid shit. So wardriving is not exactly a major problem for the informed.

  • Well, that's certainly dystopian.

  • Dear asteroidists (asteroid believers)

    If asteroids are real then why haven't I gotten any?

  • polite society

    Bro, we're pretty fucking far from getting back around to polite anything for a while.

  • They were great! Bright lights! Lots of colors and drawings! Bonkers to pull! And if you won a prize, Mom and Dad would be happy and you get ice cream!
