Never! (Joke about not wanting to be "normal") But thanks, I get what you mean, and 100% agree.
The world needs more of it fo sho...
Or less perhaps? I haven't decided yet. :-P
If you find any extra, could you spare some for me? :-P
Are you sure? Cause we could really zoom all up in there if it would help...? :-P
You did not use a hyphen, but nonetheless it reminds me of this:
Edit: Just to make certain you get what I'm saying, I found this illustration:
Okay not sure about this based on on the other responses but...sure why not, so here goes:
"It looks like you already have".:-P
I should probably read that - I figured that I get the gist having read Animal Farm but hey, if we are going to live out the irl version then it might be good to at least say that I read about it first!:-P
It is fascinating how some people see far (ahead), by virtue of seeing clear (to the soul/center of the human condition) - technology may change but we don't seem to. Asimov, Jules Verne, George Orwell, they are like techno- or cultural prophets, not that we listened, sadly:-(.
C.S. Lewis (Chronicles of Narnia) in addition to being a christian apologist also wrote philosophy about how Hitler was able to influence Europe during WWII, and I found that just fascinating e.g. if you avoid ever saying a thing but instead just act as if it is true then it is a way to avoid it being questioned. Evil people have access to so many tricks that a free & just society would never condone using (another big one lately is misinformation), nor would it even so much work in the other direction b/c getting people to question things is a major bonus in such a society so it's at best an anti-pattern there, and yet I wish we were much more aware of them b/c otherwise it is like facing a pathogen with no immune system.
Anyway thank you for reminding me of those quotes:-).
Yup. And look how much the CEOs of like Alphabet, Apple, Meta, etc. are making by comparison. Although most of it is stock so... this sounds like literal fraud then, meant to make the company look far more "profitable" than it actually is (though ianal). Wouldn't it be funny if he went to jail? :-P (haha j/k, rich people don't go to jail, nor suffer consequences of any kind:-|)
The definition of pretty much every word these days has been hijacked to mean the exact opposite - like Google lets you "search" for things you "want", and Reddit would "connect" you to "~~humans~~ people", FaceBook will ~~steal all of your data~~ share "news", again from "people", and so on.
I pretty much think of "smart" as now meaning "tactically weaponized to maximize corpo profits" - you know, "for your convenience"!:-P 🤮
Yes! Some shade! :-)
