@RadioAngel liberals: "capitalism is just human nature! can you imagine the kind of work it'd take to make people understand and accept a different system?"

children who haven't been sufficiently socially conditioned yet: "I don't get it, why don't people just share and help each other?"

I know I've mentioned this before but I'll never forget when I was a kid and I heard about "the unemployment rate" or something for the first time and I tried to get my mom to explain it to me

If these people want to help, why don't we let them? They're poor, so is there not enough stuff for them? We could let them work and they can make stuff for themselves! Or if there already is enough stuff, we could just let everyone else work a little less and then these people can work too. Or just give them the stuff, if it's there already, and they wouldn't have to work because we don't need them to. Why don't we just do that, mommy?

And I honestly don't remember a shred of her answer because I'm 90% sure it was a dodge or otherwise just unsatisfying

Turns out, I was right! Unemployment *doesn't* make sense!

you don't log in

there's no server

there's no app

it doesn't use GPS or augmented reality

you just see someone else with their phone out and you play a honk sound and see if they honk back

mastodon is like Sesame street where a muppet announces the word of the day and the whole town loses their shit over it

so uh. friend's brainstorming a setting & like, incidentally came up with an organisation named after the chimera with the specific description that they "break all aesthetic rules and use as many different conflicting aesthetics of technology as possible"

i'd challenge you to name any part of this that isn't just describing me, but we already know you'd lose

friend made this, & said we could share. y'all welcome
