I think that automatically gives everyone the right to knock these glasses off the face of anyone who wears them.

Why? Just why? Why would anyone want to wear a piece of crap like this on their faces? I may be showing my age, but this? I do not get? Isn't there anything better to spend $ on? Like groceries? Gas?

If you use Facebook, you support Meta. Keep that in mind. Zuckerberg founded his company as Facebook, Inc. It wasn't until 2021 that he rebranded to Meta Platforms, Inc. He makes money every time you post.

I was on it for a few hours. I got freaked out when I started to get “friends“ asks from people I hadn’t seen in years. How, I wondered, did Meta know so much about me? I know so many people who don’t mind being spied on that I can usually ask them if I want to find an old friend or cousin.
