It’s not the stupidest timeline because in that one everyone’s happy because everyone’s stupid. The problem is that you’re smart and too many people with power aren’t. After so many decades of living alongside news media empires, who make money if we’re all terrified, I take everything with a pinch of salt now.

I automatically ignore any headline, for example, that asks a question in the subject line and doesn’t answer it unless you read the article. Also, any article that uses hyperbolic phrases like “This is the end of…” or “<insert name> slams/eviscerates/destroys <insert name> with tweet/article/report”.

Also, any headline with ridiculous numbers in it like “Eighty million people will be homeless by winter” or “The average human is filled with 5 kilos of micro plastics!”. I even ignore headlines that promise good news, if they use the same tricks, like “New, cheap, easily mass produced chemical discovered that can fix climate change!”.

It’s kind of a new brain muscle for me but now my first impulse when I read any headline is to assume it’s not true and then see if anything else comes along to suggest otherwise. Take all that BS, for example, about the 2000 foot deep chambers apparently discovered under the pyramids that just appeared in everyone’s newsfeed. Didn’t take long for that to get debunked.

Basically, I just assume all this is fiction until it’s corroborated by several dependable sources. The reality of the state of the world is almost certainly not what is being put in front of us. It might be worse or it might be better but it’s almost certainly not what they say it is.

I remember even TheTechnician27 tried to warn us “it’s going to be zero day heaven!” they said but everyone just shrugged and now here I am with my fellow refugees in the woods trying to catch some squirrels for my dinner.

I remember it so clearly man… The morning of October 15 2025, a Wednesday as I recall. People were warned but they didn’t listen. They don’t ever listen.

I’ll never forget the screaming. Millions of Windows 10 computers just spontaneously exploding all over the place. Women, children and men with beards running down the streets of every city just trying to avoid the thousands of computers being thrown from the tops of buildings. The world was never the same after that. I found an abandoned bus in the chaos so I tried to save as many people as I could. We rode into the night towards the hills. Away from the cities and the looting and chaos.

Or you know… it just means no updates and we’ll all probably be fine.

Yes.

Nah go for it! Loopholes welcome :)

I don’t get it. There’s loads of pictures and video of her. Did you not Google her before you made this? Also there’s like one picture claiming to be Bigfoot out there so this isn’t even empirically correct lol

Hurt people hurt people.

It’s crazy the amount of AI image and video generators popping up right now that are “free” if you would just be a sweetie and give them your email address. I had one recently that only allowed gmail, presumably to make it harder for people to just use an anti spam inbox. People just don’t realise how valuable a fresh, active email address is. If I see anything like that these days I nope out immediately.

Stop showering. Really stink yourself up. Make it so bad they have to mention it. When they do just tell them they smell just as bad and that you should both do something about it.
