That’s so interesting re your mother. I wonder if her beliefs closely align to fox and asmongold (never heard of that one), but are different enough for her to not be interested in that content. Ie: ven diagram between the belief systems, except the differences are big enough for her to not to like fox content but for the algorithm the commonalities are good enough to keep suggesting the content.

I hear you. I use an adblocker and don’t see ads at all. I cannot imagine using the internet without it. I also only use the home link on yt and freely use the not interested feature.

Exactly. I have my own interests and I just stick to that. Arts and crafts and dog grooming videos haven’t made me angry.

Why did YT make you angry? I haven’t experienced it yet. I block content I’m not interested in and it goes away.

Who is the puppet master?

… leadership impacts the product. Ff might be the best choice rn, but leadership will fuck it up.

I just moved back to ff in November, because of ubo. I have to move again? Where to?

Let’s make a bingo card out of it. What are our options?

Is it a movement or is it a trump cult?

Which reminds me. I need to start eating chicken again. Rn I have a rotating menu of fish, tofu, beef.

Wasn’t there someone else who created a bill and voted for it, but told others to vote against it?

To add to that. I live in a red area and since the election I’ve been cat called much more. And it’s weird too, cus I’m middle aged…. I thought I’d finally disappear…

Everything collects data. To extrapolate, it’s stupid to post on lemmy or shitter because the same will happen.

I use it to give me ideas that I then test out. It’s fantastic at nudging me in the right direction, because all that it’s doing is mirroring me.

I’m neurodivergent, I’ve been working with AI to help me learn about myself and how I think. It’s been exceptionally helpful. A human wouldn’t have been able to help me because I don’t use my senses or emotions like everyone else, and I didn’t know it… AI excels at mirroring and support, which was exactly missing from my life. I can see how this could go very wrong with certain personalities…

E: I use it to give me ideas that I then test out solo.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

100% but that work is very difficult and for some people impossible to do. I watched an interview with a psychologist who had a former mobster as a client (not named Tony). The guy was in his 80s and had been retired from the game for years but kept having nightmares about bloody babies. He was unable to connect his work as a hit man to this nightmares, and always said that he was fine with his occupation.

I just don’t own a tv. Getting rid of my entertainment and gaming systems and most of social media was my answer to internal peace. I don’t have streaming either.

Is musk in completion with this guy?

No biggie. When the big bogus bill gets passed ICE will be plush with cash.
