The Russians kicked our* asses all through the Space Race. I'm sure they could at least intercept comms and look through their telescopes.

I think it's accurate to the age PP is supposed to be in these. Looking back at my late teens and early 20s it's definitely hard not to kick myself realizing I got so blinded by girls who wanted nothing to do with me that I couldn't see the beautiful girls that were right in front of me. Anyway...

Don't worry the other apps are still full of them, and my boss still uses them for every department meeting.

probably refers to the elimination of 'third places' a place besides home and work where people gather to socialize. About the only place left we can go without the expectation of spending money is a public library, and libraries are amazing but they're not always the best socializing spot. A major tenet of our capitalist system is separating us from things that are free and natural. If we isolate everyone in their own homes, or pods or what have you, then people can be charged for the services they use to connect to one another. Of course one may rebut that these services are usually free, to which I'd respond with the old adage "If it's free, you're the product and not the customer."

This just in: Brain damage leads to conservative values. Conservative votes still matter as much or more than yours. More at 11.

Christianity and capitalism. If it doesn't make you feel guilty the Christians don't like it and if you can provide it to yourself for free the capitalists don't like it.

This just tells me ant particles are constantly flying into my nose and mouth and I don't have receptors for them. Gross

I mean it was never actually a good place for news, aside from the top five trending stories, if you wanted infinite bad takes on them.

No one is ever concerned with how much energy is used to feed ads to the entire population of earth 24/7.
