Abysmal take, poutine is delicious

I downvoted because of the snark in first paragraph.

Okay

Right, which is why I explained that the comment that they were replying to was a joke about the absolute losses

Baby boomers and silent generation are both quite old, and so there is a third option; both sides losing boomers and silent generation to them dying of old age/natural causes.

Yeah, I said that without looking up the prices for a Rivian and remembered why I'm not actually considering getting one 😭. The world just still isn't ready for an all electric car manufacturer that is both affordable and not run by a manchild smdh

Same here, some friends of mine really got into car hacking with Teslas in particular and I was looking forward to sharing more hobbies with them. But at this point, I'd be embarrassed as hell to tell anyone I intentionally bought a Tesla, even a used one. And besides, if I really want the "sleek futuristic electric car by the dedicated electric car company", Rivian exists (unless their CEO is somehow worse than Elon 😬😩)

"Under 30"? I'm 32 and I read Ctrl Alt Del in my sophomore year of high school. I was probably on the younger end of people reading it at the time it came out.

I swear the Internet is trying to make me feel ancient 💀

They're in the same county, but that doesn't mean Evanston politics impacts Chicago at all. Cook county politics have almost nothing to do with city politics, for both Chicago and Evanston.

I mostly just want a phone that doesn't want to sell me on new ways to use my phone that I don't already do. I don't want a phone that's constantly trying to get me to use voice search, or try out some AI feature, or a search engine, etc. I have a newer Samsung tablet, and by default holding the power button turned on voice search instead of the power off menu? I fucking hate that shit, it was thankfully changeable but it was annoying that I had to change it back. I literally never use voice search. I fucking hate talking to computers, I'm not talking to a machine unless it's actually capable of feeling offended if I don't

I wasn't arguing that sex workers should be forced to have sex with anybody. In fact, I was saying that the way sexual labor involves these conversations about consent and bodily autonomy in a way that no other form of labor does suggests that it's not a form of labor like any other and conversations about it shouldn't start from the premise that it's a conventional forms of labor if treating it like one would lead to horrific consequences like arguing that sex workers should be forced to take on clients.

I guess I was half replying to your post, and half tying it back to the OOP image to say that given the concerns about sex and consent, I don't think I agree with the "all work is degrading, so sex work is no different" position.
