I guess I can agree with that with the caveat that the self improvement should be understanding that the presence of a toy in sex isn't replacing you at all. Wanting to use a toy with someone is not replacing them.
This is a bad take. There's nothing wrong with using toys during sex. There's nothing wrong with your partner using a toy on you instead of their body nor is there nothing wrong with your partner just enjoying witnessing you using a toy on yourself. As long as everyone is enjoying themselves and everything is consensual and safe, who cares?
What about that time you posted a meme to your friends discord server making fun of Donald Trump?
This is a good example because they can and have started going after this type of stuff. I think it's still going to be failing for some time, but that they even try, that people even get arrested is terrifying.
The best way I can explain it to people is that you think you have nothing to hide now but you think that because you agree with the government. Maybe a good way to explain it to conservative folks would be to say something like "what if they imprisoned you for sharing your religious beliefs?"
I mean to an extent, yeah, but most companies implementing this stuff are doing so because of laws in various jurisdictions, not because they're worried about their image. But of course it's all connected, if your image gets bad enough then law makers force your hand.
God forbid they actually try to moderate things properly, why make them do that when we can get all this facial data??
The thing is that the politicians pushing for it genuinely want the 1984-esque mass surveillance. And it's not even some sort of mustache twiddling cartoonish evil, these are the sorts of people that genuinely believe if you're doing nothing wrong you have nothing to hide. That police should be able to get into any lock and read any message. That police are inherently good and won't ever misuse those powers once they have them. They're really just that naive.
The frustrating thing is that many of these people's voters, at least in the US, have always believed the Democrats are tracking them and just generally being evil while in power, and totally oblivious to the amount of control they offer up the government willingly. The idea that their beliefs might be persecuted is lost on them, despite not even that long ago saying they were.
I've seen YouTube videos of people able to record the image of the the vibration of a potato chip bag through a window to recreate the audio from the room.
That sounds neato. My main gripe with Teams (and I'm hoping someone will correct me again) is that you can't enter raw text into the editor (think like writing Markdown). It's just a WYSIWYG/rich editor. I really cannot fucking stand those things.
Just threads? Not a chat room or DM?
Edit: Just tried this on DMs and chat rooms and it works. Thanks so much for the tip! Another successful usage of Poe's Law, the best way to find an answer on the Internet is to post incorrect information and wait for someone to correct you!
Oh nice, fortunately/unfortunately we don't use Teams for chats at my current company.
I thought maybe it was an exchange from that hunger games parody movie (I think there was one).
I graduated highschool in 2010. During my time at highschool we had more and more trailers, but by the end of it (and maybe before that) we had as many rooms outside as we did inside.
I have a strange nostalgia for them. I live in the southeast US, so it's really hot. The AC on these things was crazy. You basically had to wear jeans and a hoodie year round because you'd get too cold otherwise.


Even if it's real, it could just be a typo and editorial oversight.
