panacea

This is the beginning of the end here for Facebook. Good riddance, and I hope you don't let the swinging door hit you on the way out.

I prefer the term ‘Human School’... because that’s how we learn to be good dog owners.

It's 'Qantas'... "Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Services"

He singed off on it.

Well... both. But you're right.

My brother got heavily into weed at a young age (15-16). He developed strong schizophrenia. Was medicated which helped him, but went off the meds, left his wife, and died falling off a train that he was graffiting.

Is this for me? I'm in Australia.

What do you mean by 'it doesn't scan well'?

"You guys" is gender neutral where I'm from, and I don't think you're entitled to redefine the term 'guys' as being specific to a gender where I'm from. "You blokes" or "You gals"... yeah... gender specific in my immediate culture.

At some point, you're going to need to accept that when some people use a term that's loaded for you, it's not necessarily loaded for them, and the problematic nature of the term is only problematic to you and your circles, and it's just not intended as insulting, demeaning, belittling, or othering.

If only there were other places on the internet to get your kicks off.

"Contemplate something besides your echo-chamber. Step outside of your filter bubble!" he said, screaming into a vortex.

"It's one day in 365, it provides a little bit of relief."

Traditionally, 'April Fools' pranks were one morning at the start of April, and the gags ended at midday.

It's never worked properly on the internet and has bled either side to something like 2 days, internet time. That's a non-significant amount of time as a proportion of the year to have to deal with bogus shit.

The human response to disaster planning is offloaded to a committee who's responsible for disaster mitigation.

Call it a government.

Residents living on the banks of that large river in North Africa built a fucking awesome risk mitigation strategy for said government. Eternal life under a stacked pyramid of stones.

I should probably qualify my statement.... actually no. Social is me, my family and my friends! Fuck this Zuck dude's power trip.

And I think you're wearing virtual-virtual goggles.

"VR will absolutely change the way we interact with each other in the future."

Probably... but OR was solving hardware/society challenges, and those challenges can't be solved by handing the reins to the masters of the fucked-up dystopia that is Facebook.
