Utopias are inherently dystopian in they only work when everyone wants the same things and everyone is bound by strict rules. There is no such thing as a utopia.

Not super scary unless your from the area. But there is a prison by me where back in the 80s, a man named Kevin Cooper escaped. He made his was over to a house a couple miles away and broke inside.
He killed the two parents there, one of their children, and another child that was there for a sleep over with an axe. He tried to kill another 9 year old child there as well, but they survived.
A true life actual axe murderer.
For me, it’s an expression of a particular set of my creativity. The decorations, the show element of it, engaging in various fantasy worlds and dressing up.
It’s just fun, and freedom to have fun doing whatever you like!
Whichever path it takes. It will only go in a single path unless you have some incestuous relationships. And if that happens and multiple routes work, it doesn’t matter which one you take.
So if you look at a family tree, the bloodline is the direct order from person a to person b, with everyone in the middle. It doesn’t include everyone else that isn’t in that direct path.
It doesn’t include brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, marriage or anything like that.
Bloodline is a subset of the data in a family tree.
People are crazy. Feeling threatened by telling someone “hey, you didn’t vote last time. Please make your voice heard by voting” is wearing your persecution complex on your sleeve.
Fragile fucks.
Get treated for ADHD and depression sooner.
Gotta love the compilation releases. By their very nature, they will always have the next largest with even the smallest breach being added.
Tons of communities. I don’t think any users though. Some I know are trolls but if I don’t challenge them, then they may influence people who aren’t as aware of their agenda.
Mostly on this account I’ve blocked tons of porn and anime and sports.
My NSFW account I block anything not porn and all the porn I’m not interested in.
Mac and cheese with whatever random protein is like… A norm. Bacon? Hot dog? Chicken?
Yes.
These places have their goods and bads.
Disney in the past weren’t nearly so exploitive and expensive. They truly did give an extremely fun and entertaining experience to the guests. They did much better at treating their employees. They have pushed technological boundaries on the entertainment front. They built parks that have genuinely made millions happy. They aren’t perfect as a corporation and I have a shitload of gripes with their management and leadership, but they put out a pretty damn good product.
Nowadays, they do underpay and over charge. They are cashing in on nostalgia and not doing enough to foster that in the next generation. They’re no longer targeting family fun but are instead putting more towards the mid-20s to late 30s market. I haven’t felt it was worth the money in a long time.
Sea world. While they have done terrible things especially in the Orcas, they also put on a very, very entertaining theme park. They do fund a lot of research and coastal animal refuges.
Growing up in southern California. Disneyland was common, and so common that I ended up working there. It’s changed a lot in the last twenty years.
I still go to Disneyland regularly, but it’s always because I know someone that can still get me and my family in. I’m fortunate that I haven’t paid to go to Disneyland in over 16 years, and I’ve been hundreds of times. Now, I typically get disappointed when I’m there. I’ve seen the parks go downhill and the prices go way, way up.
I’ve been to Sea World growing up, since it was a two hour drive. And Lego Land. And Six Flags.
It’s not the parks that are spoiled, it’s the flights and hotels that make these things wild trips for spoiled kids.

(H)Okay so…
It made sense with t9 texting. Smartphones have easy to use keyboards and autocorrect. No reason to still type like you have to make 7 or 8 key presses to type “you.”
Oh man. The crushes I’ve gone through. Some I’ve helped set up after they rejected me.
Some are bittersweet though. I’m always so happy that they’ve found someone that makes them happy but sad that our friendship dwindled as a result.
It makes me want to make more of my own stuff. Sewing isn’t terribly hard for basic patterns and machines are relatively cheap
Downvotes on lemmynsfw were being used to bully people who posted pictures of themselves. They weren’t always disabled. But they became a problem and the instance felt that downvotes didn’t belong in a porn instance.
There was no reason to downvotes a porn post. Ever.
If it breaks the rules, report it. If you don’t like it, keep scrolling.
Residential listings were “white pages” and businesses were “yellow pages.”
Yes, they were big, printed on very thin paper, with small typeface.
People around me put things out early with the expectation and hope someone will come and take it.
That’s not a silly thing though. Pretty much all jobs are temporary.
I’m at an MSP that services quite a few school districts. We lose techs to them somewhat regularly.
