All those stupid fucking filters are OBNOXIOUS. I don't even use Snapchat, I stick to Instagram, but people post their dumbfuck Snapchat filtered pics and vids on there too. The dog nose filter is the worst... it's not fucking cute. At all. It's just weird. And not only that, I think Snapchat is EVIL and CREEPY. There's something seriously wrong with the app... it's not all fun and games, there's something amiss and I'm sure in time it will become apparent.

And indeed!
I just found out why Snapchat is evil.
Apparently, to use the filters, you have to calibrate points of your face on the screen...
It's all an effort to further the facial recognition database.

Pretty amazing I come across this video the day after I post this topic.
Snapchat = evil.

GAH I FUCKING HATE SNAPCHAT.
It's so fucking dumb.
It's like a PLAGUE.
People whose videos I used to LOVE on YouTube are becoming DREADED because they include mashups of their STUPID fucking Snapchat videos.
Snapchat is SO FUCKING USELESS. The videos are TINY and you can't even get ANYTHING across in that timeframe, so all the clips are just a bunch of JUMBLED BULLSHIT...
With those STUPID, UGLY, creepy, freaky dumbfuck filters.
FACE SWAP IS THE WORST!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So unbelievably fucking stupid.
SO STUPID.
THE STUPID BURNS LIKE AN ATOMIC FUCKING FIRE.
MAKE IT STOP.
MAKE IT FUCKING STOP.

Another thing about Snapchat that no one seems to notice is that the app icon is a GHOST.
They're making fun of all its users in plain sight... "ghosting" is the term used when an app runs in the background constantly. Snapchat is constantly running and spying on you.
Having said that, the phone could potentially be doing that anyway... however it's my belief that what Snapchat records goes into a different database than the regular phone and that's what I find very suspicious/unsettling.
I just refuse to use Snapchat because it's so dumb and the "ghosting" thing, the way they think that's funny and no one gets it... wow.

the big thing about snapchat was that the images were supposed to be deleted and not transferable.
turns out, they have always been easily transferable, and moreover they have been STORING those images the entire time. guess what? those images are also up for sale.

And think about all the things people are inclined to do under the guise of the images/video being deleted 'forever'...
Things they wouldn't normally do. People who wouldn't normally feel comfortable enough to do those things.

Here's the difference between eastern European culture and Western culture. In America, we have puppy filters. In Russia, they have filters that turn your photos into paintings by famous artists.

Wow dude...
That is a hardcore key point right there.
Asia does that stupid cutesy animal shit too though, they’re the worst.

Japan is all about cutesy. Even the warning signs have anime characters on them.

LMAO.
But there’s something endearing about it somehow...
I got a pink anime tarot deck and it’s my favorite of all time.

That's cool. I had that deck that's a sort of modern update of the Visconti-Sforza deck. Can't remember the name of it.

It was this one, actually.

Anime is cool because there are universal truths and ancient wisdom in some of the storylines.
I don’t watch anime or obsess on anime art or anything, but I can appreciate it.

I don't think that deck looks overly cutesy at all. You can tell it's anime, but it's pretty subtle.

I’ve never had a deck that speaks to me like this one does man...
Plus the artwork on the cards is so delightful, takes me to this higher level just looking at them.
I’ve tried various subject matter readings with them...
Seemed like such a cheery deck at first, I wasn’t sure if it was gonna be a good conduit for serious messages, but it totally is.

Glad it's working out for you. I don't have any cards at present. I do have some card-sized circuit boards. Maybe I could make an electronic circuit Tarot deck. LOL

That’s my kinda shit right there.
Phi is a member here who is working the electrical side of divination lately.
I think it’s a trend that should catch on.

The "Internet of Things" (IoT) is supposedly the next big thing. Many mysteries of life will be revealed when everything is wired into the network. Either that, or we'll all be trapped in the Matrix forever.
