It sounds like a snippet from a bigger statement to me.

I was frustrated when they were discontinued because they were actually quite good. There's not many other options for me beyond mac n cheese and green beans so I rarely go back now.

This meme remind me of this song.

I'd say it's not end stage but instead a new dawn of "pure" capitalism which is probably worse.

Not true, plenty of AI companies are in the green like Midjourney. Not everyone is hermorhagging money like OpenAi to curb out competition.

Typographers saw the same thing with personal computing in the latter half of the 90s. Almost over night, everyone starting printing their own documentation and comic sans became their canary in the coal mine. It was progress but progress is rarely good for everyone. There's always a give and a take.

Yep

Can someone update me wtf all this Nicole stuff is about?

That's a fun dynamic y'all got then but it does make me curious why your bf doesn't game with you. Did he grow up with a gamer dad and think games aren't cool? 😎

This just brought back so many memories, thanks.
