The human need to be watched and judged was once fulfilled by God. Now, we can perform the same function with data mining algorithms.

my mom worked in a nursing home during the summer when she was in college or something; one lady (probably with dementia or something) was tied to a chair all day and would cry to be untied but she wasn't allowed to untie her

i imagine they're slightly better at hiding the abuse these days

im so glad we live in a world where we can just black hole our elderly family members now instead of taking care of them





pretty much the entire girl side of my family are nurses/medical assistants or adjacent and from what I gather the key to not having your elderly family members not live in hell is visiting semi-regularly and appreciating the non-management staff.

right? a job will be automated the moment it becomes plausible and profitable

the delusion people adopt is that their job exists because their employer is benevolent, so you'd better not be mean and look for a better standard of living

i miss my rats:





their lifespan is only 2-3 years tho and their tumors and stuff are heartbreaking and expensive to have remove. someday if i can build a relationship with a vet i'd like to run a small rat rescue of some sort but i cant do that responsibly right now.

Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinda seems like a restaurant run by robots shouldn't have lines, with lines being the result of human's being crap at the stuff robots are supposed to be good at. Especially not lines out the door.

Like that's benefit 2 of robots, right behind not having to pay people. Seems like they are lovely robots.
