I’m pretty close to death being all cancery and everything..and I do not give a hoot in hell what happens to my data. Do. Not Care. I will be dead, and I will care even less at that time.

Is there an option to have them use all the data they’ve gathered about me over the years to construct a digital clone ala Caprica? Cause that seemed like fun.

You can also set an auto-reply for your account. Mine says, “Saucy is permanently unavailable.” Google emails you periodically to remind you that you have this service set up, too.

I mean yeah, but say what you will about him, Bernie doesn’t seem to be experiencing it at the same rate as Biden, so its not as though it HAS to be that way.

Sometimes it hits in the early 70s. For example, one of these hypothetical old people might confuse “Alabama” with “the Bahamas” and then spend a couple weeks saying he didn’t.

Gee, it’s almost like a lot of people in their late 70’s often suffer from a decline in their mental faculties which causes them to sound confused and forgetful and makes them poor candidates for almost any job where mental sharpness is a major factor.

Make your business a gas station?

I’m so white, I'm practically translucent, and this shit is still too white for me.

49...and my reaction was identical. #teamnobody

Yeah. She doesn’t come off much better than Caroline. All in all, it just sounds like two self-absorbed young women making poor choices. I’m not sure what all the hype is about here.

I didn’t know anything about this before this Jez article (because I’m 44) but I read Natalie’s essay and just... holy shit, kids. Why are you like this?
