Walled Off
The cake my wife ordered from walmart.
Her first mistake was ordering a cake from fucking Walmart.
No, no, her first mistake was to be born to grow up to do some shit like order a cake from Walmart. Blech.
Bloom Filter
Why do people in the late 90s and early 2000s, look so greasy in photos and in movies?
That’s not greasy — that’s just how people look before the filters and photoshop fuckery (and film equivalent) that is applied to everyone now. Women also tended to use less makeup back then so they looked a bit more natural as well.
Now the real is unrecognized and the algorithmic pseudohuman simulated counterfeit cybernetic caricature is what everyone perceives as the actual. Baudrillard would not be surprised. But I am saddened that so many minds are filled with nothing but the spew and spume of algorithmic machinations and manipulations.
It’s unseemly to allow it, but so many do.
Manacle
Computers have gone from bicycles of the mind to manacles of the mind. And all of you bought into it with propagandists telling you it was for “security” and “for your own good.”
And you deserve what you get. But I don’t.
