Have you ever seen "Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality"?
It's a fan re-write of the series.
Draco Malfoy says, "Whenever schemes get too complicated, look at the end result and assume that was the goal the whole time. Now look who benefitted"
That's a good assumption to start from.

I mean, there's definitely a good chunk of it which is "Let's make money by copying art without having to pay the artists."
But, yeah, also the surveillance thing.

off he goes.
The next day, bae says to me, "<f-boi> doesn't even say 'hi' to me anymore! He only wanted sex from me?!"
"Yep."
"Tsk, you were right."
Sometimes, she just misses cues. It's common when you're a woman in a male-dominated profession.
But it was only one guy, not *every* guy.
/e

But bae didn't see.
"Naw, he's just a coworker and he's really friendly."
I shrugged it off. It didn't bother me. I just thought she should know.
A week later, we run into to f-boi at the grocery store, bae putting stuff into a cart I'm pushing.
He stares at us in shock, stammers out "Hi" and /2

I have met a *lot* of people like this.
"You are enjoying life the wrong way! You have to enjoy it MY way."
They're telling you how to be married, how to fold your clothes, what car to buy, what you can't do for your boyfriend/girlfriend.
They hate your magic.
Because they have none of their own.

I think anybody who is listening to the Internet for dating advice is taking a train to hateville.

Ah, yes. Character limits and ambiguity.
1% of libertarians who have morals:
"Let's wear masks to voluntarily stop this disease and protect our elderly!"
99% who are just 'libertarian' to be jerks:
"Fuck you! I'll never do anything nice for anyone! I AM THE ALPHA MALE!"

Libertarians: "Without government regulation, everyone will do the correct, moral thing on their own."
Later...
The 1% of moral libertarians: "What the fuck is wrong with the rest of you?!"

Gee, I hope the AI isn't trained by racists.
(Narrator: But it was trained by racists.)

"But *I* hate having to suffer like this for the sake of my eternal soul.
And if EVERYONE isn't doing it with me, I'm going to start to wonder if it isn't all bullshit!"

Is she actually even in that pic?
I mean, you could just deep-fake anyone you want into a picture nowadays.

Your dad sounds my dad used to sound. 🙂

Also, her "boss's every order" is called "her job" which she "signed a contract" to do.
If he told her to get his groceries, cook dinner or give him a blowjob, that wouldn't fly.
Why do want a woman to "submit" to you, anyway?
Why not aim for love or companionship?
Pathetic ego-stroking desperation.

With an air popper and some cheddar seasoning.

There must be some AVN awards we could squeeze in there.
"MILF performer of the Year" or something.

Since I didn't know what a "bandeau" was, I started thinking about Spandau Ballet and how I would have armed them in the 1970s.
But then I looked up bandeau and that doesn't fit at all.
[sigh]
