My favourite colour is bright orange, like candy. Followed by bright yellow, like canary feathers.

The colour I hate is the nasty pumpkin-flesh yellow-orange ochre that exists between them.

Probably makes me hard to buy for that people think they're getting me a nice orange thing in 'my favourite colour' ๐Ÿคฎ

AI is propped up by investors. Always promising the.next big thing is just around the corner. The money is pouring in from other wealthy people...let's be real us common folk rarely if ever pay for AI. Its businesses doing that

but one day those investors will expect a return, so AI is being shoved in everything in the hopes of finding a use case that is actually profitable

It's largely incidental.

Soft-tissue cosmetic surgery doesn't last. They're foreign objects in the body, so over time your body tries to break them down. Lip filler slowly diffuses around the bottom of your face, for example. Botox paralysing muscles affects strength and elasticity.

So it's a cursed treadmill. You can't stop getting surgery once you start. A single surgery will look worse than your unaltered face if you only have one, so every few years you have to get it again.

But.. all the old stuff is still in there. The muscle damage accumulates. The filler accumulates, and is impossible to remove. You might remove some of your own tissue to 'reshape' as it gets more advanced, but many just 'top up'.

Either way, you are permanently altered. They don't choose to look like this, they choose to make minor adjustments to look younger/hotter/etc that slowly turn them into this.

Tbh I'd be concerned if he was raped while drunk or unconscious. It is, unfortunately, not so rare. If so, then as far as she's concerned that's 'sex together'. A lot of women perpetrators do not consider themselves rapists because it's 'non-violent' or they believe theyre doing the man a favour.
