I can see some uses for cell phones. But AI just destroys things and creates garbage.

I get the humor with the pope's response.
But this meme isn't really great - or at least it is making a different point. It is a philosophical Holocaust survivor saying he feels bad for a souless social climber, an unethical and emotionally empty man.
I have a BMI of ~22.0.
A nurse brought up, unsolicited, that she would like to have an appt w me dedicated to how I can lose weight.
A normal BMI range is 18.5 – 24.9. I have no desire to lose weight, just to be healthy in general.
Anyone else experience this? Or was this some clerical error?

This one puts California Indigenous in the spotlight!
Often indigenous people from other places dominate. This one is for us CA Indigenous.

On a purple cloudy background, vivid purple text. Next to it is a lavender and pink pile of glowing money. The text reads: Buy my silence. Permanently. $8,000 per month For $8,000 a month, I will stop.

I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.

Not really into being stabbed in both eyes
Great concept though. I was looking forward to wearing these. Sadly that's not going to happen
Problem might be solved by a much more flexible frame. & get rid of the eye stabbing points
Global majority have low bridge noses. Why no good masks for us?
Made for a narrow & high bridge nose, the frame creates pointy edges that constantly ride up & STAB MY INNER EYES while simultaneously creating huge gaps below both eyes & massive air leaks.
The inner foam compresses the part of my nose w/o much cartilage making it difficult to breathe/painful.
Zimi Masks have a plastic frame that goes inside the cover & comes in many sizes & cool colors. Keep the frame & replace the cover
Excellent workmanship & a wonderful foam inner layer that stretches between the mask & skin. In theory creating a perfect seal.

Zimi masks KN100 were recommended to me as great for low bridge noses & hard to fit faces.
Verdict: HARD NO. Top 3 most UNcomfortable mask & shoots out massive air while stabbing both of my inner eyes. Doesn't fit low bridge noses or the shape of my face = massive leaks #CovidCautious

Especially dark humor.
Humor is survival intelligence.

Wars are like love affairs: Easy to start and difficult to end.
We all would like more fact checking.
The different survivor narratives appear to corroborate each other. Especially those recorded separately with no knowledge of the others.
