read it as “survivor” and had to reread it five times before I noticed it said “surveyor.”

FALSE. Every time I ask someone how they’re doing they say “fine” or “okay.”

I think it’s satirizing how many people, usually the kinds of people who believe in essential oils and horoscopes, call themselves things like “empaths” as if it’s some kind of magic power to be able to read someone’s emotions… a skill that nature imbued in us over millions of years to pick up the most subtle cues of other people’s behavior so we can tell if they’re a threat or not.

On that same note, I’d like to see one making fun of “pickup artists” who think they have the monopoly on manipulating people using only the powers of their voice and language and lying.

Psshhh, I can use the power of my mind to melt an ice cube in minutes using NUCLEAR FUSION.

I just have to use my mind to pick up and place the cube out in the sun.

There was a book by Harry Turtledove called “The Guns of the South” which was about time-traveling white nationalists who go back in time and arm the Confederacy with AK-47’s in an attempt to get the South to win the Civil War, it’s actually a really good read, as far as Turtledove books go, it doesn’t get lost in the weeds too much.
