I walked into Kroger yesterday and noticed the security feed of the entrance on the overhead monitor. There was me with my grocery cart and a green square hovering over my face, tracking with my movements. Don't know if the feed was being processed through a facial recognition database, but it totally could be, right? It kind of creeped me out. My first thought was, "I hope my twin sister hasn't committed any felonies I don't know about!"

I just recently bought a house and had to scan my face into the IRS database. I was extremely hesitant to do it, but my family would be living on the street if I didn’t do it.

I read "bought a horse" at first and thought "why would your family live on the street without a horse?"

It's gotten so bad that people are buying horses just so they can stay in the stable with it
