I can’t stand all this talk about Alexa being a wiretap, that is a gross misrepresentation of the purpose of devices like Alexa and their function in our lives. if it’s not intercepting phone calls through some connection to your phone line, it’s not a wiretap and it’s not wiretapping.
the correct terms for a covert listening device are bug and bugging.
You are absolutely correct.
reverse gaslighting where i pretend to know exactly what you are talking about
academic conferences
Work meetings
Interviews
Auditory processing disorder
conversations with my cats who are yelling
telling a small baby that they made an excellent point and you fully agree

[ID: A Doofenshmirtz two nickles meme. The first panel is edited with an image of the Dracula Daily icon and says, "If I had a nickel for every time tumblr fixated on a horror story from the late 1800s, I'd have two nickels."
The second panel shows Dracula's image faded out with a book cover of The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allan Poe replacing it and says, "Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice." End ID]
Is anyone else more entertained than they should be by the vintage 1990′s straight-to-DVD, home shopping network aesthetic of the pinned ad for “Tumblr Ad-Free Browsing”?
Staff 1: “We should advertise this.”
Staff 2: “I can put together something slick and modern.”
Staff 1: “Are you new here? They’d hate that with the power of a thousand suns. No, our only options are retro tackiness or off-the-wall bonkers.”
Staff 2: “I don’t have any ideas for bonkers.”
Staff 1: “Retro it is.”
It’s gone!
Good thing I saved a copy for posterity.
… Oh that is delightful
aw, they should’ve kept it, that’s actually kinda charming!
do not talk to cops includes don't make casual smalltalk w any person who's obviously an on duty cop. y'know how you should treat every gun as if it's loaded? treat every cop as if they are trying to get information out of you or fuck you ever. don't talk to cops don't trust cops know your rights
