This whole article is...almost a graphic illustration of the legalisation of ganja in America,a fattie smoked,the next stage is to babble some mad shit,all while consuming a massive amount of chocolate,if it wasn't for half the country going insane and wanting another helping of the mad orange King it might be a good thing.
I second this emotion--especially, being still a little cuddly from the years and years of basement living following Covid--the "a fattie smoked" part. I did. I did indeed.
Strongly agree. Response escalated. Fact-check overlooked. What are these rivulets running from my optical sensors, these mirth-creases on the face? Surely the signs of archaic human feeling in excess of Like. Nuisance report sent to Tech Support for improving version 2.0.
I'm subscribed to books and cats, and to the wifelette (though she's lost in a mountain of tomes related to her current Master's Degree so will likely be no more than a low-lever lurker for the next year at least). Everything else is either muted or blocked. I'm going through a stage where I really can't take people, so this new functionality (the beta version of which I accessed via my imaginary friends on the dark web) is most welcome. I hear Version 2.0 is in the works which will allow each of us to have our own private Matrix-style world where we'll have the godlike ability to do, well, anything! Mine will not have any people in it but will be populated--you guessed it--with books and cats.
As I've gotten older, I find I have less interest in two things: running (the ould knees!) and peopling. Attempting either these days leaves me gasping and in pain.
So, in this version - if one chooses to follow someone, would one need to announce "Follow" or simply start walking behind them? That person may then have an embarrassingly long line of people behind them (a single file or in a gang?). Only to turn around one day and realise their content/life is no longer appreciated or admired, the line is no longer there and they have been "Unfollowed". (Crumbs - that's a bit dark. I'm off to make a cup of tea! 😄)
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Laughed out loud at the note under the Unsubscribe and Skip feature: “Note: I tried this with my wife and honestly, results were mixed.“
I like the sound of that... (and you're right, Like should mean that too...)
Just imagine the reaction if I try unsubscribe on Marie !!!
Ooh yes... I wouldn't try that ;-)
I’d recommend you get a full suit of armour and seal yourself into your shed first 🤣
This is good advice.
Thanks for that, good advice or I could just bury myself instead !

The next phases of much of this can be witnessed in the following episodes of Black Mirror.
Nosedive
Be Right Back
The Waldo Moment
White Christmas
Hated in the Nation

You know, I STILL haven't watched any of that... I really must.

Excellent :-) And thank you for the repost!
Have you ever read Jasper Fforde? 😉
I have not, actually... I keep thinking I should give him a try...
The shades of grey series is perfect for what’s happening now
There are people in it that don’t officially exist, so everyone pretends they can’t see or hear them 😂
Oh, that sounds good... :)
Hahahahahahahaha. Oops. Where’s the delete button? What do you mean there isn’t one?
That's in version 2.0
Ah, if only!
Some day...
I’m not sure whether I should like this?
It'll happen whether we like it or not ;-)

Actually that sounds pretty perfect. Will definitely download that version... and I feel you about people in general right now.

Blimey, yes! < makes tea >
That's a good idea for a story, though...
Thoroughly enjoyed this. Laughed out loud at the note under the Unsubscribe and Skip feature: “Note: I tried this with my wife and honestly, results were mixed.“
Yeah, be cautious with that feature ;-) I genuinely did try it in real life.
Does this count as social media? I'm not on any platforms as far as I'm aware.
I talked to my wife about joining X but she said I was a complete tweet...
I applaud her ;-)
