it would be cool if websites let you be an adult on them. the advertisers and payment processors need everything to be Family Friendly though and their definitions of family and friendly are absolutely fucked. but since they're in charge of the Internet now, no one is allowed to be an adult. tiktokers say things like "unalive" and "seggs" because they know death and sex are too adult for online. online is for idiot babies only now because they're easier to market to

nickyflowers replies:
oh im sorry you're a trans adult? super ban. you are super banned for life. you have upset Visa's feelings. Mastercard is throwing up in the corner. how could you do this to Google Ads?

That's the corporate web: sterile, intrusive, manipulative, endless list of negative descriptors.

It's why you gotta take whatever's of value from it and put it elsewhere so you can get away from it as much as possible. Then spend more of your time using the public web intentionally for things that you enjoy and interest you, instead of allowing the corporate web to use you.
