spiders are beneficial and eat pests but have you noticed that bug spray always advertise killing spiders alongside other pests like cockroaches. They want you to kill spiders in your house so youre dependent on thrir products.

There are practically zero reputable studies correlating aluminum in antiperspirants to cancer. It's likely cheaper to make "aluminum free deodorant" which DOESN'T WORK than to make actually good quality antiperspirants. I mean come on, people who vape freak out about metals in deodorant now; this has to be a psy-op

Hosepipe bans are a test to see if you'll turn on your neighbours.

It could be the middle of the driest summer on record with the weather forecast saying there's less than a 5% chance of rain, not a cloud in the sky, but the second I leave work it almost always seems to start raining.

I feel like there's some unknown force in the universe that demands I be slightly damp.

I don't like it. I feel victimised. I want to be dry.

AI generated food that looks dirty and rotten and bug-infested at the same time we have screw worm in our meat and diarrhea in our vegetables.

Why is it the first footage of an eruption only existed 42 years ago, I’ll tell you why because volcanoes house cloning facilities and to scare people from going near they made volcanoes as natural defense systems

for what it’s worth i don’t think it’s taco bell’s fault and i will probably still eat it

....but they actually like being able to hear which way they went in a chase long after losing sight of them.

AI slop is a subreddit where people denounce the use of AI as immoral, unethical, and unnecessary. They post AI videos and pictures on there of anything and everything, to “showcase” the slop that’s out there, but I believe that instead, it’s a place for people that don’t want to get the flack for defending AI, so instead make a fake sub like that so that they can enjoy their slop without judgement from true antis. Well guess what?? I’m onto you!! You can’t hide from me, slop consumers! I bet that half of the stuff on there is generated by them just for the purpose of showing it off in some weird self pleasuring way. I’m pretty sure that most of the stuff posted didn’t exist. Just look at the titles of most of the stuff on there, they’re not even pretending to dislike it, and sometimes they’re outright saying the slop IS NOT SLOP.
This is just a gut feeling but it’s a strong one.

Going through security, checking bags, etc, really only takes half an hour at most, and for the rest of the time we’re stuck in the airport, where everything is really expensive. Since we’re there for so long, we usually end up buying food or snacks from the airport.

I genuinely think the word "cringe" has done more to kill harmless hobbies than almost anything else.

At some point over the last 15 years, we collectively decided that enthusiasm became embarrassing. Collecting action figures? Cringe. Dressing up for conventions? Cringe. Building Lego? Cringe. LARPing? Cringe. Model railways? Cringe. Nerf wars? Cringe. Showing genuine excitement about anything? Believe it or not. Cringe

The result is that people slowly stop doing things that make them visibly happy because they're terrified of looking uncool in broader society and closed circles.

Who benefits?

"Big Normal."

Not in the Illuminati sense. More like the combined social pressure from social media, advertisers, and companies that make money when your hobbies are quiet, digital and endlessly monetised.

I'm a gamer, before anyone jumps down my throat. I love games. But it's interesting to see how we've shifted from physical toys to digital ones. Instead of buying a toy once, you're buying battle passes, skins, loot boxes, subscriptions, DLC, cosmetics, emotes... The toy never really belongs to you anymore as a consumer. As a human being.

Again, I like games. This isn't "video games are bad" at all.

It's more that physical, unapologetically nerdy hobbies seem to get labelled as "cringe" far more often than endlessly scrolling TikTok or spending four hours arguing on Twitter.

Imagine if adults felt no shame. Or even kids for that matter.

Your local park would have people flying RC planes, sword fighting with foam weapons, playing Pokémon with link cables, building giant Lego cities, racing Hot Wheels, making cosplay, collecting dinosaurs, whatever weird niche thing makes them happy.

Instead, everyone's worried about being perceived correctly online.

So yeah, maybe "cringe" is just a social immune system.

Or maybe it's the greatest marketing campaign ever invented...

Convince people that visible joy is embarrassing, and they'll replace it with infinitely monetisable digital entertainment that nobody can judge because they're doing it alone.

And all in all? The real victims are the blokes who secretly want to buy a lightsaber but thinks the 14-year-old at the checkout will judge him.

Poor bastards.

But how do u explain finding dead birds? The raptors. Hawks eagles etc are robots that drop real dead birds to fool us. And the damages the cause by hitting windshields increases business for Big Windshield and replacing them. Which Big Windshield gives kickbacks to Big Govt whom control the birds

Anyone tuned into UK Twitter knows that Lord Alan Sugar, host of The UK Apprentice and not much of anything else, has recently started quote replying to random bots on Twitter doing engagement bait such as the one below:

At first I fobbed it off as "harmless old man antics", because well, he is old.

Then, while scrolling through his profile for a laugh, I saw him both respond to one of these bots, and then retweet the original post.

I'm a little too tuned into how Twitter monetisation works for my own good (not that I would ever pay to use that website), and you can make money through any form of engagement with a tweet, hence why bots run amok on that platform.

This is why I'm being led to believe that Alan Sugar, even as the oldie he is, has got someone to make these bot accounts and tweet out engagement bait all day long, and he interacts with them, not just because it pushes it to those who follow him, but it will also push it to other bot accounts who will respond and further drive engagement (and more money!), and to other old people who will harmlessly interact with it.

Or maybe he's just old. Who knows

Think about it, why do we say mpreg, but not fpreg?

Mpreg fans are treated like freaks while 99.999% of the population quietly fetishise fpreg and no one bats an eye.

This is just one of the many ways in which sick fpreg enthusiasts are controlling your thoughts and vocabulary at every level of society.

If you pay attention, you will start to see it everywhere. They even indoctrinate children into being ok with fpreg, it's taught in schools, in nature documentaries, medical institutions. Children are being groomed to grow up and one day participate in this fpreg cult, which almost always involves sex.

Open your eyes, wake up sheeple.

I feel as if ive needed to go more often and I'm dropping legendary logs half the time

Like the title said. No one has ever died in any war ever from being shot. Soldiers just hallucinate from the smoke caused from ignited gunpowder. Metallic tumours are a common, intended side effect of prolonged exposure. The United nations is a facade; the real purpose is to train people to walk the battlefields and cut out the metallic masses growing in their bodies. It's where the world sources it's metals from.

Has anyone noticed how on YouTube shorts the only adverts for the game come from 0 subscriber accounts with 10 likes, yet the content is actual S-tier edited adverts. I think they are using fake accounts to spread adverts for cheap, like how Andrew tate built his name.

Sales from Kimchee was at an all time low and needed an effective strategy to fund a marketing campaign that brought cabbage back to the American table sold to you by Korean manufacturers.
Cabbage patch kids successfully funneled millions into manufacturing the best kimchee we know and love today. Kids have fond memories of cabbage and are willing to try some over other popular American choices.

Garbage pail kids became a hit next which helped to form the capital needed to create Hyundai. Though the marketing went on a different direction then to keep garbage associated with that of the brand. Consumers learned the connection between the to companies when cars were still being perfected and experienced car failure and recalls early on. Class action lawsuits were filed but dismissed on the premise that Hyundai knew their cars were made of garbage. Hyundai counter sued for defamation and settled out of court receiving 2 plots of hundreds of acres of land. These plots are rented from Hyundai from the state and city departments to operate sanitary landfills. 🤣💩

Cabbage waste is used to process the garbage in the landfill. Kids you played with cabbage patch dolls work at the landfill. Cabbage patch dolls are part of the waste that is included in the garbage. Components of the trash and recycling goes to making parts for new toys and vehicles. Cabbage patch kids are literally a recyclable and biodegradable asset. Korea has control over two of the United States largest landfill infrastructure.
