Further proof, as if any were needed, that we really are stuck in the dumbest timeline.

Your Glasses Got Worse On Purpose How an Italian orphan built a $27 billion monopoly that controls the brands, the stores, the lenses, and the insurance.

Quote from article: This is the MEMORY SINGULARITY: after 300,000 years, this is the moment that humans stop forgetting. It is not clear through what medium these memories will be recalled.

"It is not clear through what medium these memories will be recalled…" LOL

Got contacted by an opinion poll, and most of the questions were about what I'd do if Kamala Harris became a write-in candidate for CA governor. Innnnteresting…
