>The opposition has been hijacked by former fascists (trying to translate "collobarateurs") like Le Pen so he rightly didn't succeed, but the other end of the spectrum is also the end of France.

Baudrillard sums it up pretty well in a Conjuration of Imbeciles >http://ctheory.net/ctheory_wp/a-conjuration-of-imbeciles/

Dad told me as much. He chuckled as he recalled the first time he installed an app. This was back when the touchscreen was invented! Can you imagine? Having to type everything on a tiny little keyboard. How could you type on such a tiny thing when our fingers are so big? Dad said he had a Nokia, never seen one myself, and that it was a total piece of junk. All it could do was make texts and calls (not even with video!) and with poor sound quality to boot. Dad did like it though because you could throw it against the wall as many times as you want and it would still work! Try that with a FacePad™ and see what happens, you’d have your Prime membership™ stripped and be on your way to the loony bin so quickly you wouldn’t even be able to share it with SnapFeed™. I shuddered just now from saying that, haha.

Dad remembered his first touchscreen fondly, he said back then it was called a “SmartPhone.” That’s how him and mom met. It was on some antiquated version of FuckFeed,™ except the app was supposedly for “dating,” Dad said it served the same purpose as FuckFeed™ though. Mom’s profile was so dorky it was cute, he said. (“And don’t you dare tell your mother I told you this! She hated the app and only went on it because her friend dared her”). Haha, what a dweeb she was, and still is.

Well it so happened Dad swiped right on her (that’s what they used to have to do before voice commands) and she swiped right on him too! If they swiped left the other person wouldn’t get to see them (a primitive version of FuckFeed’s matching system), Dad said it was convenient because he was too impatient for what Grayhairs called “dating,” back then it was considered mind-blowing to have all the mates you could ever want right in front of you, all you had to do was pick and hope they pick you too!

Haha, Grayhairs used to get worked up over the most trivial things. Like, how could you get worked up over something so primitive, so basic? Did it project a full hologram of your body that allowed your match to make sure you didn’t have any hidden physical defects underneath that charming picture and description, like FuckFeed? No. It definitely didn’t have holo-sex, which as you probably know (unless you’re a dweeb) allows you and your match to try each other’s bodies out for size before you did the real thing. Because sometimes a he, her or xer would have a nice face, a great body, maybe even a few funny jokes in their description, but would be terrible in the sack. That really would defeat the whole point of FuckFeed, and with so much to do and see today who was time for shitty sex? Certainly not me. Better get it over with and have 10 minutes of holo-sex and see what they’re made of.

I find I do the best work when I've had not enough sleep and wake up early, my brain is in a zen fog that enables me to focus and quickly do work or absorb a difficult text without any distracting thoughts
