Watching the evolution of computer processing: beginning at MSDOS to Windows 95, the advent of commercial access to the World Wide Web through America Online 1995 and the rise of an idea so innovative; the idea you could "search" for anything on this web of information in an instant with an up and coming website called Yahoo, I feel qualified to speak on this dangerous downward spiral.
Sadly, it is nothing original historically; it simply repeated a never ending cycle of corruption based upon the ideal of improving the human race. What was once a tool to spread knowledge from old single letter encyclopedias to free instant online dictionaries, a tool to bring humanity together as a collective mind for human progress and change, a tool to help us feel less alone and connected as a species, was weaponized and perverted by corruption and the selfishness inside us all.
Once designated spaces like AOL text chat which spawned the show "How to Catch a Predator" or Face to Face chat like the now defunct Omegle were originally made to meet other similar minded people and make connections. To no surprise, AOL chat had to be shut down and Omegle became one of the largest child abuse material rings and distributors to this day due to adults manipulating children into doing sexual acts they could not understand and recording it.
I grieve for what could have helped raise humanity to unlimited potential yet here we are; adults sexually harassing children due to their cherished innocence.

@Nebula I am grateful I got a vasectomy at the age of 24; they told me I would regret it one day. Everyday I feel more and more grateful for my choices. What world will these children have to face?

@RageAgainstTheMachine it makes me so sad, I was very pregnant during 911 and I felt like that, like what the fuck am I bringing them into
Nebula · 41-45, F
@RageAgainstTheMachine I don't regret them one bit though, they are definitely the kind of people I want to see more of in the world
I agree completely. The only reason I find those posts valuable is because they tell me whom to avoid. Plus if it’s a case of users regularly perving on underage girls (and boys) admin can collect their replies as evidence to present to authorities.

@OlderSometimesWiser it happens in real life too, it's so disgusting. I remember being in my early 20s with 40, 50, 60 year old men trying to say stuff to me, made me sick and not want to leave the house a lot of times

If your daughter is 12 then I absolutely agree and if they are being disrespectful in the way that they conduct themselves I wholeheartedly agree.
If they are doing it in a friendly and normal way and taking her respectability into account as long as she is a young adult and nobody has an issue with it then it's just life. There are plenty of older women out there who like younger men too whatever as long as nobody is disrespected harmed or hurt then whatever

It's a shame and I admit I might come off as extremely creepy and weird, but that thing is beyond even my understanding. I never wanted minors on EP or SW. But 21 or 22 isn't minor. So It gets even harder when people of my kids' age end up inside my inbox. So here's a one time message to all the ladies under 32, please don't.

The things people in the world do to each other is really depressing and scary. Especially involving children
littlepuppywantanewlife · 31-35, M
But why it isn't called creepy when people young people hit on people at your age?
Nebula · 41-45, F
@littlepuppywantanewlife that's weird too
littlepuppywantanewlife · 31-35, M
@Nebula Yes. It's weird and they don't tend to last long

There is a new trend called hag maxing.
I didn’t make the name and I certainly don’t approve of it.
It’s a trend where young men go after old women.
Is that equally wrong?
Personally I don’t have anything in common with anyone under 40. They may as well be a different species. I get what you are saying. I just like seeing from both eyes.

Yes it is
Nebula · 41-45, F
@Shybutwilling2bfriends I wish for a time when women can grow up and live their life and dreams and not be sexualized every second of the day

ThreeLittleBirds · F
Yeah ppl like that here and narcs make this place a dump
Nebula · 41-45, F
@ThreeLittleBirds yeah same. There's certain personality types I just avoid like nothing else. I used to try and understand and sympathize with people, but not anymore so much, at least not with adults
ThreeLittleBirds · F
Aye …
Like you I gave loved ones the benefit of the doubt because I like to see the best in people ( knowing we all make mistakes etc ) but all the time I did that they simply got off on it and all it did was inflate their egos
They are cold and prickly … I’m warm and fuzzy lol the two don’t mix 😌@Nebula
