I will never give a shit about robots doing things that humans do like running, obstacle courses, etc. it’s never impressive to me if a robot does it. humans are impressive because we *aren’t* robots. feats of strength, agility, etc. are impressive when humans do them because of their difficulty

"Transplant hate" is about people who want to turn the city into a bigger version of their shitty hometown -- just as white, but w/better [insert ethnicity here] food. It's not that people move. It's that they move & then use cash and cops for racist blandification.

I truly don’t understand this “transplant” nonsense. The whole THING about NYC is that ppl come here from other places to mutate into New Yorkers! TO SEE IF THEY CAN BE KING OF THE HILL, TOP OF THE HEAP! Imho a rando who moved here a year ago is the MOST NY person. Welcome Ohio rando, have a bagel

I used to spend every November in either Hoboken or Manhattan sleeping on the couches or spare bedrooms of family or friends for auditions. When I wasn’t auditioning or practicing, I explored. All five boroughs (even City Island) and I learned this truth: “Adam, don’t move to NYC. You will ruin it.”

I dislike the idea that NYC is the place where you can morph into someone new, b/c it relies on the consant subjugation of Black american New Yorkers to make it happen. Analyzing historical maps of the city reveal waves of mass displacement since the 1800's. Where do we go while you find yourselves?

remember when that annoying verizon guy pissed everyone off with his shitty little “can you hear me now” catchphrase and then he did those commercials for sprint and was like “i defected, i’m a sprint guy now, nyeah” making a stupid face. i hope he’s doing ok

“I don’t have a problem with trans people, I just don’t think they should be able to use public bathrooms or play sports or get healthcare—“ ok so that’s segregation. you are functionally a segregationist. and you want me to believe that fights fascism somehow. ok.

A world where a twist ending is repurposed as a video title. where a thing's climax has been removed, leaving an advertisment for the gap where it used to be. such things are commonplace in. the twilight zone
