The WEF abandoned that term because every time winter came around, people’s fear of global warming dropped significantly.

Made of plastic, it’s fantastic.

I don’t think fretting over micro plastics does any kind of good whatsoever. Unless you’re a university scientist facing a funding deadline for a micro plastic study. The average Joe doesn’t have high powered micro scopes with a degree in biology

IMO micro plastics is the latest socieital “Boogie man”.

I considered getting a tattoo at one point, a small quake 1 logo. I lost interest, anything over $50 bucks is too rich for my blood. 10k? I’ve only had less than half that in savings / disposable income in one year throughout my entire life.

If anyone asks me if I have any tats IRL, my go to response is: “You don’t put bumper stickers on this Ferrari!”

Not really, that’s what an old friend of mine used to say =D

I’ve never had any problem with tattoos, but recently I’ve become a little annoyed with certain types and the tattoos they have. I’m talking about the OnlyFans girls. Medusa, Eye of Osiris (illuminati 3rd eye), moon cycle, skulls with roses, skulls with snakes, kitty cats, phrases like “take a risk” or “baby girl”, Free Masonry symbol (compass and the square), spiders; black widow in particular, witches iconography, vampiric looking finger nails, flowers of all kinds.I’ve spent a lot of time cropping and zooming OF girl screenshots to study them later.

I’m thinking there’s a small number of tattoo shops that service the only fans business; they’re “connected”. They probably have tat packages to choose from such as Alt girls, Goth girls, Gothic alternative, Girls with Secrets, Moon Girls (with optional Cross or upside down cross add-on), Sexy Phrase Girls, nature girls (Kitty cats, spiders, snakes, flowers).

If they really want to maximize attention and have the funds, the all in one OnlyFans Girls pack.

Given I’ve I have no tats, I have no idea how expensive tattoos are, but I imagine the cost can get into the tens of thousands?

Seems there’s a ton of money to be made in the tattoo industry, if you can manage to break into the connected shops game.

the US Department of Homeland Security is rapidly increasing its use of AI-based surveillance, including facial recognition and the monitoring of social media accounts, to keep tabs on immigrants, dissidents, journalists, legal observers and protesters

This is such total bullshit. You don’t have to be ANY of these types of people to be in the tracked and monitored. These systems are built for cruelty. Being cruel to the most innocent among generates is the most powerful source of emotional pain.

AI is an automated narcissism machine built and managed by narcissists of the highest order. Anti social disorder, narcissistic personality disorder and sometimes borderline personality disorder types depending on the severity. Cluster B personality disorders. All of these share traits with narcissistic personality disorder, while the narcissist may not be violent whereas anti socials (psychopaths) tend to be violent. They’re all proficent in weaponzing language (word trickery).

IMHO The mythical vampire is a metaphor for the narcissist. Instead of blood, narcissists thrive on the emotions of their victims, mainly negative emotions. This is their lifeblood, it is their supply.

Social media is the playground of the narcissist. – Moira, Schitts Creek

Based on what I’ve read from self proclaimed narcissists online, they don’t have to be near the victim to feed on the victim’s emotions. Using words to inflict emotional pain is how they operate. Gas lighting, double speak, double think, selective memory, mixing truth with lies, compulsive lying, deflecting, and overall mirroring their truselves onto their victim. Apparently, whenever the narcissist inflicts suffering with their words, they experience pleasure. I’ve read it’s sometimes a physical pleasure but generally mental pleasure.

To end this, you’d be hard pressed to find an online source for narcissistic abuse assistance. I’ve only ever discovered that someone who is a narcissistic abuse recovery “therapist” or “advocate” is a narcissist themselves. This is how they operate, in the shadows, in plain sight, always presenting themselves as a savior. Wolves in sheep’s clothing.

Uber corruption

They do a real solid job of sending aid to Isreal.

The two party system is entirely corrupt. Two sides of the same coin; two faced.

Agreed!

Anyone remember the mysterious Longhorn Windows back then?

Win2000 was my favorite. I ran multiple beta ISOs up until it’s official release. Thanks to Microsoft Partners uploading them to newsgroups.

Onedrive is a fuckin’ pain in the ass! Sends your files to Microslop and the files on your pc become shortcuts.

I went back to Windows10. Much easier to create a local account upon install. With Win11 they make you jump through hoops.
