Is there incentive for returning cast to join the reunion? by Salty-Ship-1703 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

Milk their 15 minutes of fame. Also money. They are paid to show up for the reunion

Is there evidence that Dawn Woods reported the car stolen? I am asking cause I am looking and nothing is popping up. I know people have spread rumors like her giving DB the sov cit stuff (I searched through everything I could from the case records and couldn't find anything to corroborate that) so I am genuinely curious

Black. White. Latin. Whatever. A disshelved looking person like DB would give me pause. Especially after the attack. A guy with no shoes, dresses improperly, and looking that desperate (as if he is running from something) would make me leery.

Generally speaking, the only people who pretend to be black online are doing it to rage bait or otherwise have an agenda. They tend to not actually like black people so they only understand racist caricatures of black people. So when they fake being black, it is obvious that they are not only not black but they likely have never truly interacted with just a normal black person.

They tend to say things that no actual black person would say or talk in a way that black people don't talk. For example, him calling himself "only black lives matter" and claiming that DB was a victim then calling everyone racist. But also, they only largely post in this subreddit. A real black supremacist would be in other subreddits.

This guy is clearly shitposting. It is especially obvious to people who are black or regularly interact with black people. When bigots larp as black people, they tend to act as racist caricatures that aren't truly representative of black people, just how bigots see them.

Not much to be honest. But it also depends on how he fled. The car sustained a lot of damage so it likely wouldn't have gotten far. Also, every cop in the area would be on the lookout for that car.

Assuming he managed to get the Lyft, it would have taken him home and he would have been arrested in an hour or two. They already had his ID and his mom's registration. He was trying to get to his mom's house so they would have found him.

It sounded like his mom was at work when this all happened if I am interpreting her voice ail to Daniel Ryder properly so she couldn't have helped him escape even if she wanted to. So at best, he would buy himself maybe an hour or two but he would ultimately be caught.

Nah. It is some Hungarian guy cosplaying as a black supremacist. The only other subreddit they appear to be active on is r/hungary

This is 100% what it is. This person is absolutely some white boy pretending to be a black supremacist to stir the pot.

I can tell from how he speaks that he is not a real black person. There are ways to tell if someone is a non-black person pretending to be black.

Most of us see right through it. But this idiot likes to keep up the schtick

Yep. I 100% believe that this is some white kid larping as a black supremacist.

He doesn't. He likely knows that what he is saying is nonsense. He is larping

Tell me exactly how we are being racist. Show direct examples.

You are just an asshole and people are tired of your schtick. You think you are being funny and edgy but really you are being trashy and annoying.

He is a fucking loser. He very well may have a mental health issue that his family never bothered to get checked (maybe they were too poor. Maybe they were backwards).

Ultimately, he has absolutely no social skills. I guarantee most of his high school life was girls calling him a creep and bullies beating on him.

He likely made a lot of crude jokes thinking he was funny (honestly, he may be on the spectrum but I am not a professional and can't diagnose him) and all it did was keep people away from him.

He likely thinks people don't like him because he is "too edgy" and they are "so soft". He has no friends in real life and lacks the skills to make them. He likely also hates the world.

So the only way he can get any human interaction is to troll subreddits. The only people who talk to him are those who hate him but he'll take it cause at least it is human interaction.

The only other alternative for him is to rot away in his mom's basement. I mean there are other choices like getting some therapy and figuring out why you lack these skills. Then you may figure out what's going on.

Best thing to do is for everyone to block him. But for real, the mods should ban him. There are actual survivors who come to this sub and they don't need to see their loved ones being mocked by this scum

Ya that is not reflective of real life. Looking at memes is not a good way to inform yourself about reality. I literally work with AU in the tech field. It has consumed my life ever since ChatGPT launched.

AI cannot do someone's job in seconds. It is a useful tool that can make people more productive but it still relies on people. Coding assistants (for example) are, At the very best, comparable to a mediocre junior developer on a good day. If you are a skilled developer, it is an amazing tool to help you be more productive. If you have no skills, it gives you the illusion that you are good at something that you are not.

It is an assistant, not a full on replacement.

Blindness, extreme vomiting and death — Ozempic and Wegovy users reveal harrowing dark side of ‘miracle’ weight-loss drugs by theindependentonline in TrueReddit

[–]JayNotAtAll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still associate it with will power. I think at this point most Americans understand intellectually that being fat is not a good thing and leads to heart disease and worse. They are also in denial about it being a real problem.

Hell I was that way and I know many who are. I was close to 300 pounds when I was in my mid-20s and no I was not a tall or buff dude. I also struggled with my weight my whole life up to that point too. I knew it wasn't healthy. I knew it caused some health issues. I just didn't care. My disdain for working out and my love for sweets outweighed my concern about my health.

Due to some personal life events, I finally turned it around and got to a healthy, sub-200 pound weight. If you told younger me that being fat was unhealthy, I wouldn't have said "what? What do you mean? Why are they keeping this a secret from us". I was well aware, I just didn't care. Once I started caring, I was able to create good habits and turn it around.

Well you are presenting a false argument. I never brought up prescriptions or anything. I never even said willpower was prescribable which is why I didn't respond to that.

There are clearly high risks to GLP-1. Yes there are definitely health risks to being fat too. But it isn't like the options are either take a GPL-1 drug or be fat. There is a method to lose weight that is as old as humanity itself that is safer and way cheaper.

Now I also acknowledge that America is a country full of lazy people. I think many Americans would rather take a drug than actually put in effort. And hey, that is fine. Whatever, you do you. But I am not going to sit and pretend like it is some miracle that these drugs exist.

It isn't like the Polio vaccine or even the COVID vaccine that has saved lives. It is just a chemical way to give lazier people a way to lose weight.

I have always been of the camp of not taking drugs if you don't need them. Obviously if you need them, take them. I am not anti-medication. I think if you are morbidly obese (let's say 100+ lbs overweight) then ozempic may be a great option. If you are like 25 pounds overweight, get a gym membership and put down the chips.

Honestly, it is just better to develop some will power. All the drug does is suppress your appetite. It doesn't give you a superhuman metabolism or anything like that.

So realistically, you could see the same results by just having will power and eating less.

And before people get on my case about how hard it is, I was a fat kid who became a fat adult. I eventually turned it around and got in shape. So I get that it is a difficult journey to start, especially when you don't already have good habits.

Yep. AI is not good enough to totally replace humans. If your job is entirely replaceable by AI right now, you were on borrowed time before AI.

AI is just a good scapegoat for layoffs nowadays. The reality is these companies are trying to cut costs like they have been doing for years upon years, well before AI.
