Good to know. Amazing how much racism we allowed pre-2000. I mostly remember the different spellings of faulty towers at the beginnings of the episodes.

I don’t lock my personal computer. It’s my husband & me at home, and he’s fine to use my device (even though he normally wouldn’t).

ChatGPT for sure saves conversations.

Chat GPT was super affirming about a job I recently applied to… I did not get the job. That was my first experience with it affirming something that was personally important. And so I can absolutely see how this would affect someone in other ways.

I thought my state was the worst, but turns out Miami takes the cake. Grand Theft Auto was basically accurate.

FUCK yeah F+G. Rarely seen in the wild.

I would also say I can picture a smell, but maybe “imagine” is a better word.

Synesthesia is any kind of crossing of senses. I had a friend in college who had synesthesia for colors and smells and shapes (I apparently smell like a purple and orange blobby shape) but she also had these weird ways of visualizing time that was also in a similar vein. It’s pretty complex and multifaceted.

Edit: This thread is delightfully full of giddy 90s trolls who are goofing on absolutely everything.

I… I think i was talking about the waxy cups? But maybe that’s fondant, too. (Though, somehow my smell association with fondant is the cold freezer-burn smell.)

That weird waxy coating, right?

One more: I thought redlining also conveyed purposeful impediments to black home ownership, like in the refusal of mortgage applications.
