  • being such a prominent the front page reddit, /r/kidsarefuckingstupid has always disturbed me. Both the content people upload there and the responses seem mean spirited, and the reach is absolutely massive. Seeing that has absolutely made me more mindful of what I’d ever post. Some people’s personal moments are just memes to others, and a lot of people out there are just thirsty for anything to post.















  • the last ad break had someone saying (cw violence)

    spoiler

    he was a Kamala supporter until his son was hit by a car and reversed and driven over again by someone in the country illegally

    another one I’ve seen during football is (cw sexual violence)

    spoiler

    I’m not old enough to vote but if I get sexually assaulted Donald Trump’s policies will force me to carry the baby so think of me when you vote

    the local candidate also has a commercial that talks about how she enlisted after 9/11 that uses 9/11 imagery




  • In Canada we have usual ads for OTC drugs and vaccines, but for prescriptions it’s weird.

    You’re allowed to advertise that a drug exists for Condition X, but can’t say what that drug is, OR that there is a drug out there called Drug Y, but can’t say what it does or what it’s for, and you’re not allowed to combine the two. So we get the most inane ads out there where every single one is just a bunch of stock photo looking people doing stock photo things, talking about how they asked their doctor about drug Y.
