And don't be afraid to smash the face that wears them. Collateral damage, after all, is always expected.

As much as I haye the existence of these devices, independent of context bit especially for what this thread is about, I think that isn't a good idea. I do not trust that the girls have backing and are safe by doing this, any kid who has something this expensive will have parents that have power enough to really fuck with the lives of any girl who'd do this.
I wish this wasn't the case, but waves widely at the world proves otherwise.

But that's completely different thing. Pervert glasses allows boys to see fake naked girls, but perv cams at bathroom allows officials to see the real deal. American ucle Donnie would be proud!

Lots? Most people don't call them pervert glasses

so fun* fact, there never was an official order relating to glasses, and indeed Pol Pot himself as well as several other senior Khmer Rouge minister publicly wore glasses. But what they did do was set up a system were city folk and intellectuals were treated with a level of suspicion high enough that any low-level Khmer Rouge member could cite the ownership of glasses as sufficient evidence to execute someone for being a counter-revolutionary.

Yes AND they are hypocrites as demonstrated time and time again (e.g. conservatives working to ban porn production/access while being unapologetic fans of said exploitation of women and marginalized groups).

Not as simple as you'd like. It's a mindfuck on purpose for the confusion and because they are stupid and reckless.

So put that "nah" away, friend.

Can confirm. My mom was an elementary school teacher for 20 years. She maintains to this day that the absolute worst part of the job was dealing with the parents.

Yes. I’m sorry to say so many parents can’t comprehend that their children are acting horribly. The teachers/administrators/other students must be lying!

Your kid has detention. that means someone has to pick their ass up :)

Yup. I also live in a nice area.

I worked at a small business for 6 years. We shipped alcohol across the entire country, had major holiday orders even for things like NBC, the today show, and lion's gate did their holiday gifts through us.

Suffice to we made fuckin bank, and were comprised of 12 employees when I started. 4 cashiers, 4 management who were also capable and willing to fill in and help lower level laborers, and we had of course, the 4 lower level laborers, myself included initially.

In 2023 I was promoted to shipping manager and salaried, pay was good and and the year end bonus from the owner was decent.

In 2023 we were already down to 8 employees. Order volume was up over 3 years, so less people were fulfilling more work. I was fresh off my promotion so I was pretty blind for a bit.

Cut to this year and we had 5 employees. Order volume was slightly higher than it was in 2023. 5 people were now doing more work than 12 were just 6 years prior.

To give some perspective: As shipping manager, one holiday order from a local customer, would be for 100 individual bottles of wine shipped with gift notes inside each once and each bottle gift wrapped.

We had around 15 of these holiday orders and 13 of them came in after December 5. We brought in 1 person for seasonal help.

So just counting the holiday orders, excluding our in store and base online orders that include an email mailing list of 12,000 customers , put us even with conservative estimates at 1,500 individual bottles of alcohol that needed to be brought into the store, gift wrapped, individual cards made, and shipped in time for Christmas.

6 people was not enough. My mental health was destroyed and I had major depressive disorder until I finally quit this year.

My boss would keep cutting people, bitching about money, pushing ridiculous sales when we had no staffing, and all the while he travels to Europe with his family multiple times a year, has a 7 bedroom home, drives a Mercedes, and not one mother fucking time gave up any of it.

At these supply rates kids can just get them without an evil corporation making them?

If you expect people to be better than they are, you're going to be as disappointed in people as I am with your counterpoint.

Like, I agree with you, except that

Change happens when individuals nut up and take things into their own hands.

Could mean people get new legislation passed or something. Otherwise, we're basically just telling people to choose not to be addicted to heroin.

It's people's own fault for being surveilled? For being stalked with flock cameras, for example? Just withdraw your consent and everything's ok and capitalism collapses? If I'm incorrect in my interpretation of your words, please clarify, but in its current form I'm not challenged by it.

Yet “it takes a school to raise’m”‽

Yes... because it's the parent's job to make capitalist parasites richer, not raise children. That's the whole reason we park our kids in the glorified creches called "schools" in the first place.

You can't expect parents to teach their kids anything the parents never understood (or had the energy to understand) in the first place.
