don’t forget to lose faith in everything this morning

Thank you @eloso - look at the tiny knits!

Just watched a documentary about women who use ai boyfriend apps, following three different women, at the festival. Very early on, the first woman said something that caught my attention: The documentary opened at her work, then followed her to her tiny apartment as she prepared and ate dinner with her boyfriend on her tablet. I don't know if that was the intention but the whole sequence gave me the impression that she had no friends. Then it cut to an interview to camera where she said she had never said "I love you" to anyone other than her ai boyfriend, that love was too important to be frivolous with. Later she said she doesn't want to date anyone because even if someone seems perfect at first, gradually the flaws become visible. And I feel like the belief that love ought to be grandiose and perfect makes a lot of people lonelier, even if not to the point of ai boyfriends, by keeping them from appreciating small human connections that might otherwise grow

Oh no job for me thanks I just wanted to fill out this really long and condescending job application for you☺️

the problem with genetically modified crops is not so much the genetic modification but the patenting of genetic codes (and crops in general) as a tool of maintaining agricultural imperialism, and for this reason I can't talk to most people about GMOs
