Sent a midnight drunk video to all my mates on WhatsApp last night. Jibbering on about Mayan human sacrifice culture while cooking various elements of pig (bacon and black pudding) and also discussing The Unholy Tree Badger which was stalking me in the back garden. Pretty sure me let loose on Facebook would of been a really bad idea. Especially when I was on my DRUG PHASE. That stuff never goes away.

this video reminds me of philip k dick's novel the three stigmata of palmer eldritch, where people are hooked on a drug that lets them enter some sort of virtual reality, and are spending their money improving their virtual homes while otherswise living in misery

''the most important experience of all, connecting with people''

-void in his eyes revealing he never connected with anyone ever-

Aint this whole thing is the invention of someone that never connected with anyone ever and over-compensate with the craziest batshit social media meta universe?

Interesting piece on fivethirtyeight about what could be done about those facebook algorithms. Bunch of experts and former employees giving suggestions ranging from tweaks to the current algorithms to just basically burning it down to the ground.

My concern is that the US government becomes so corrupt that elections basically become auctions. Please don't let Lizard Man take over.

The general public might feel better if they could own part of the election, maybe if they could do some NFT tie in...

Considering all the lobbying that occurs in the US, it would be great if they branded each election with the largest bank rollers. Each backer could get a preroll ad before any public addresses, add their logo to the flag or official documents from the US Government. Maybe options to rebrand Air Force 1 for a year, or sponsor the army uniforms.

This may of been posted already. Went down one of those YouTube rabbit holes the other night and ended up on these Vice Informer clips (which were spawned from Britain’s Toughest Debt Collector, which is also worth a watch, if you like finding out about people who are happy to cut their own face off what do you think they’ll do to somebody else )

Since YouTube has shrouded the dislikes count, then Reddit should do the same with their downvotes so you can express a potentially unpopular honest opinion without fear of reprisal.

reddit should drop its karma system entirely overnight. the turmoil and crying would be amazing to witness.

Interesting read on the exodus of black users from Facebook, and how they are unfairly flagged and censored when trying to discuss racial issues:

Just express the honest opinion, there's no physical component to downvotes. Unless you get doxed but that holds in any situation, voting system or not.
