I got a call once when I was actively seeking a job and a seemingly-human voice on the other end said that it was calling about my application. Lured in by my desperation, I talked to it for about about a minute before I realized that something was off about the conversation, so I said “Wait, are you a robot?”

And the thing on the other end of the line laughed and said “No, they don’t pay me that much. So I was hoping I could talk to you some more about your employment history!”

Now deeply suspicious, I said “What town were you born in?”

And it hung up on me.

I would 1000% support a law requiring robots of all forms to be clearly identified as such.

He looks like the bastard offspring of DJ Qualls and Marilyn Manson.

Did the statue get repaired at some point?

How much does it suck to be the one guy that didn’t wear his helmet to work that day?

I only just learned about it today, myself. I work that day, but I might be able to shift things around.

I really wish that these protests were more widely shared in advance. I want to be involved, but only getting a couple of days advance warning makes it really hard. I know that sometimes you have to act fast, but if you want your movement to succeed then you’ve got to try to consider the real lives of all of the people who want to help, but are also really limited in their time. Plan protests on weekends, and if you’ve got to protest on a weekday, then plan it way ahead of time and give everyone a chance to plan to be there. I’m sure it looks better to have one big protest with 10X people there than ten protests with 1X people attending.

I have no idea what moment I’m looking at here
