@unimagine On the one hand this is stupid because being on your phone or computer doesnt mean you arent paying attention.
On the other hand if it pisses off politicians and gets them in trouble for stupid shit maybe it will get them to hate facial recognition and start taking it seriously... so maybe its stupid in the most brilliant of ways...

I wouldnt suggest artificial saphire unless you want them even cheaper. The 20$ saphire i described is a real one. But artificial ones look nice so certainly a go!
Diamonds are cheaper, not not "cheap" Nothing in my diamond collection is under 100$ a stone, but my saphire collection is often under 20$ for the real deal, though if you go really high quality they can still wind up int he hundreds.

You can get magnificent stones that would have cost a fortune a few decades ago for almost nothing now. I have a nearly 7ct flawless cut saphire on my desk, rich blue color. Cost me at most 20$, before artificial sapphires it would have been thousands. Worth taking advantage of and doing real stones if it interests you. Bling is cheap these days as long as it isnt diamond.

@aerith Memes hating on facebook is half the reason the fediverse exists :)
@ScumbagDog Thats why its a joke and not intended as serious commentary. The similarity is close enough to be worth a laugh for most. Thats its only purpose.
@ScumbagDog I would imagine people who are pro-socialism might not. Would that describe you?
