What is something that you found in your life that made you wonder, why was this created?

#1

The internet. I keep hearing how it is a wonderful invention but then on the other hand how it has ruined everything. It is a good job I do not have this internet. I would not know what to do with it.

If it weren't for the internet, we wouldn't be able to have such great discussions like this!

I don't believe in the internet. I think it's actually just couple of cups tied together with a really long string.

    It's worse for artists. I listen to Adam Duff Lucidpixul. He recently did a livestream talking about the importance of adapting to AI for artists. Then he made another video going off on people stubbornly refusing to adapt and complaining about AI's presence in the art and animation industry. It was a hard video to watch. I've never seen Adam Duff so angry at his audience before. I read the comments and found I wasn't the only one taken aback by his responsive video. He practically said, repeatedly that AI is here to stay and if an artist wants to make a successful career they need to adapt or they will fail. I, and others, concurred it's not the be all and end all if you don't convert to AI. There's still an audience out there who prefer classic animations and art. There's still a demand.

    Hey, WiggleJiggle the Emo Penguin? I saw the thing you're considering your bio, and please don't do it. There is music waiting for you to listen to it. There are cats and dogs that want you to pet them. There are arm wrestling competitions to win. There are dandelion wishes to make. There is a war waiting for you to win it, for the good of the world! - pineapple does not belong on pizza. I don't know if this helps, but just know that there are people out there in the world that desperately want you to stay in it!

    All organized religions. On an individual basis, faith is a great way to be in touch with The Divine, but once you start forming groups and electing people to be the "Voice of God"(tm), you start getting people gathering to hate anyone that dares to think otherwise...

    The factories and machines where they paint these little turtles’ shells with pink paint and patterns and stuff so they would sell better to little kids. Absolutely vile. The turtles and tortoises simply cannot survive for longer than a month unless you pry the paint off bit by bit, and even if you do, it suffers for life and it still has a short lifespan. Most of the factories are in Asia, and people are trying to do everything to shut them down, but there are still idiots around in the US who deliberately paints their turtle or tortoise. It’s toxic, and even the paint itself isn’t it will block out sunlight and cause deformations, vitamin deficiency, and respiratory issues.

    Oh my Gosh, I know what you mean. I live in Asia and I found a bunch of these painted turtles in a pond... Ugh, why didn't I try to remove the paint?

    it’s ok, just sneak in at night, steal all the turtles, and work on them on your home! then release all of them back into the pond.

    Algebra. It's basically just numbers with secret numbers next to them. If you work at McDonald's, you're never not going to know how much a Big Mac costs. It's not like your manager is going to keep it a secret and have you work it out on paper. Plus, most people won't grow up to have the power to change the prices of products. It's useless.

    Algebra is useful though. I just don't like it when it gets overly complicated

    Algebra was one of the few math topics I thrived with and helped me better understand division. Long division should get lost. It's made simple division unnecessarily long and the only times I see it used is when some gloating, hot shot teacher/boomer wants to show off their peacocked feathered brains.

    Guns. Child pornography industry. Sex trafficking. Cigarettes. Perfume. Money. Stocks/investments and putting value on shiny, neat rocks and metals, and worst of all, animal fur/skin/body parts. Whaling. Over fishing. Fast fashion. Slave labour. TikTok. I'd say it's worse than Twitter and Instagram put together. Fluorescent lights. Worst type of lighting ever. LED billboard signs. Elon Musk. The Trump family. North Korean dictators, and every other dictators in the other countries. Wars. Indian Residential Schools. Segregated Indian laws, or basically the Canadian Indian Treaty Act.
