And now I see Twitter is changing it's name to X.  Since I don't use social media it's hard enough for me to keep all these social media companies straight without them changing their names.  As near as I can figure from following the news:

Facebook:  The place to go for misinformation; founder had a inspirational movie made about his life where he found success and fulfilment despite suffering from Sociopathic Personality Disorder.

Twitter X:  The place to go to get offended by every single last goddamn thing in the universe.  At least 50% of all news stories are about Twitter X.  Owner is secretly Iron Man.

Instagram:  The place to go to develop an eating disorder.  Founder seeks to become the Dark Lord of the Metaverse.

Tik Tok:  Tool of the Chinese Government created to turn youth in the west into complete and total morons.  Has proven to be incredibly effective.

Truth Social:  Platform for stable geniuses to deliver the bigliest truths.  Has only one user.

Typing this up I realized I am really out of it.  I don't even know which web site one would use in order to be pimped by a child sex trafficker; the very raison d'être of social media.   

Sounds about right.

I think the paedos are on twitterex these days. I remember a recent story of one being unbanned as they'd only posted a small amount of child porn and not everyone had seen it.

Welcome to the thread RF, with that age you should fit in well.

There's a Popeye's on Yonge Street, right downtown Toronto. And the only thing going for it, is it's open late, like really one of the few takeouts open after the bars closed. So I've only eaten there after heavy drinking sessions. So really hard to see if the copious vomiting aftewards is the food or not.Could be.

There was a great 24 hour diner in downtown Vancouver that was perfect for that purpose. But like all cool things, it was forced out when the area was redeveloped and lease rates went through the roof.

And the local grocery store has been carrying Halloween Candy since the beginning of the month.  Who is so desperate for candy corn that they can't wait until October?

Why do you think people are waiting to eat it?

The branding is just a good excuse to buy junk food

It just isn't right.

Like eating candy canes in April or chocolate bunnies in August. An outrageous affront to culture and society.

I saw "Kim Kardashian, American Horror Story" trending on Google this morning; and while I'm no fan of Kim or any of the Kardashians, I thought that was unfair.  I don't even think you could even consider her an American Tragedy.  As it turns out they meant something different, I see I'm a bit behind the times again.
