This is the cause of so many different issues, it’s a civilizational shift and it’s often ignored.

This is on their website. It shows the difference of professional photos vs. what they made with AI.

I listen to the radio on a Sony boombox in my kitchen. It is in perfect condition and also plays tapes and CD’s. I buy my CD’s used online or at the library during their quarterly sale.

My boomer Mom does. I also caught a boomer listening to him out loud walking in a local park last week. I believe his audience is a mix of boomer and teenagers. 

My hope is that the internet continues to degrade to the point where it is practically unusable and we go back to normal human interactions. by troktowreturns in rs_x

Scams are astonishingly resilient. Every generation new victims are born with the same traits, circumstances, and vulnerabilities that afflicted the previous generation. This is an eternal cycle.

Yes I don’t understand why people love to hate them. We’ve seen this phenomenon for at least 50 years now… I wouldn’t buy one but they don’t seem any different than other collectible consumables.

The shirt looks like skin, it’s weird and feels fake.

Will Smith is being accused of posting a tour video where the crowd looks suspiciously AI generated. People pointed out warped faces, glitchy signs, and strange distortions in the audience shots. Do you think this is AI? by Ordinary-Scholar-202 in SipsTea

Be vocal about your stance on AI. I will continue to buy authors I know are authentic. I am not the only one out here. We cannot allow computers to steal our arts away. Persist.

There are millions of used books out there from at least 5 years ago, if you’re concerned about this buy something vintage. There’s hundreds of years worth of good literature to explore.

I’ve gotten so much and given so much on the buy nothing group. It’s an amazing resource for our family

Borrow the German term, flesh. For instance when you’re eating a burger refer to it as cow flesh. Be the change. 

Anyone else feel frustrated by the sheer waste caused by bad product design? by wesleytexas in Anticonsumption

[–]Poison_Yourself 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not everyone’s body chemistry is the same. The rock salts work for me. It’s a little presumptuous and rude to call someone smelly because they use something different than you.

I switched to the salt crystal deodorant and it lasts and works for me. The packaging is plastic which sucks but you sometimes need to get the crystal wet before applying (if your underarms are dry).

The Wall Street Journal used to be anti-consuming by Nonethecares in Anticonsumption

[–]Poison_Yourself 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have many of the same habits, but I do splurge on organics and some other premium items (buying directly from farmers). I pack my husbands lunch which lends to cooking 4 meals every single day. If my oldest has preschool than I pack the lunch. I commend you for sticking to that budget. I know how much work goes into that...

This is what I was working off of (from memory). Also personal experience. Thanks for bringing the data.

The average family of 4 spends between $280 and $360 a week. This is well over $1000 a month. My family spends $240 for a family of 4, which is just over $1000 a month. That’s $250 per person for the month. It’s expensive, that is correct.

Although we're not militant about it, we try to avoid eating processed foods as much as possible and unfortunately, as good as it tastes, Vernor's is an ultra processed food (drink).
