Dating in 2018 is hard. I always find myself wondering, how do people meet their significant others if it isn’t through mutual friends or dating apps? It seems like authentic human interaction so rarely happens nowadays. People don’t ask for your number at the grocery store, no one “accidentally” bumps into you on the train, and people at clubs don’t even know your name when they ask you to go home with them.

We are a generation that’s so afraid of being vulnerable, and so few of us are willing to be open about the fact that we crave genuine human connection, and want to be loved. Sure, there’s nothing wrong with having casual sex, or using dating apps for things other than dating, so long as you’re being clear about your intentions. You don’t want your time wasted, so why waste anyone else’s?

If you ask me, there’s a lot of really shitty dating trends that our generation has created and popularized. These trends are toxic, and they should definitely be left in 2018. How many of these are you guilty of?

Have you ever taken a photo to post on social media, keeping in mind that ONE specific person is going to see it? Maybe your ex-boyfriend, or that new Tinder match? What this dating trend is all about is presenting yourself in a certain way online to make yourself seem more appealing to those that you’re interested in. Maybe you’re talking to someone who claims they love rap music, so you share a photo of that new Kendrick song on your story, or the girl you’re into says she’s a passionate activist, so you share that tweet about the newest environmentalist movement.

Whatever it may be, you should really stop. Be yourself authentically on Instagram and other social channels, and the right people will come to you. You don’t need to fake your interests to get someone’s attention – you’re a lot cooler than you think.

Breadcrumbing

I think it’s pretty fair to assume we’ve all been on one side of this at least once. You know that one guy who’s in your DM’s whenever you post a new photo, but he never actually makes any moves, or suggest that the two of you hang out? He’s breadcrumbing you, and you need to accept the fact that he’ll probably never stop doing so, so there’s no point in you entertaining him.

I have a few people like this in my life, and I know that I find it really frustrating that they’re always there to gas me up, or make it seem as though they’re interested in me, and then go AWOL when any talk of making plans, or ACTUALLY getting to know one another comes up. Stop leading people on in 2019, it’s as simple as that.

Curving

This is probably the one that I’m MOST guilty of, I’ll admit. If I had a dollar for every time suggested we make plans and I brush them off with an “Oh yeah, I’ll let you know when I’m free!!!”, I would be rich. I am the queen of curving, and it’s pretty shitty of me. Essentially, curving has been described as “letting someone down without explicitly telling them you’re not interested.” Yup.

In my defense though, a big reason why I choose to curve sometimes is that I’ve had men go full on psycho when I do explicitly tell them no, so I’m just trying to pick the lesser of two evils here. At the end of the day though, it’s important to remember to always be straightforward when dealing with other people – maybe “no more curving” will make it on my list of New Years Resolutions.

If you’re not entirely sure what orbiting is, don’t worry – it’s fairly simple. Orbiting is what happens when someone ghosts you, but continues to follow you on  social media, and regularly watch your stories and double tap your posts. I’m not sure why, but something about this drives so many of us absolutely nuts. If you’re going to ghost someone, why not just totally unfollow them altogether? Are you waiting for a convienent time to drop back in? Are you going to breadcrumb them the next time they post a cute selfie? Do you want to see if you still have a hold on them?

Whatever the reasoning is, it’s pretty f*cked up. If you’re done with someone, do them the courtesy of unfollowing them so they can move on with their life in peace, and you can do the same, after karma gets you back.

Zombieing

In my opinion, zombieing is much worse than ghosting. When someone ghosts you, at least they leave you alone. When someone zombies you, they go ghost for a brief period of time, only to pop back up in your DMs or messages with a ton of excuses later. “Hey sorry, I’ve been so busy!!!” You know the ones. Odds are good they may have been busy, but they’re also taking advantage of you by doing this, and if they know that you’re going to forgive them whenever they do it, then they’ll keep disappearing and coming back whenever it’s most convenient for them.

If someone’s doing this to you, my best advice is for you to be candid with them, and let them know that you’re not interested in entertaining someone who only wants to be around you when it’s good for them – you deserve much, much more than that.

Gemini

Birthday: May 21-June 21

Type: Mutable air sign

Key words: Witty, social, upbeat, eager, fickle

Love anthem: “Hands to Myself” by Selena Gomez

Famous Gemini men: Chris Pratt, Kendrick Lamar, Liam Neeson, Peter Dinklage, Troye Sivan, Lenny Kravitz, Shia LaBeouf, Kanye West

Best matches:

Scorpios are a great match for Geminis. They have endless depth that piques Gemini’s natural curiosity. A Scorpio won’t think twice about Gemini until they’re absolutely positive that they’re willing to commit, though. Aquarius is another good match for similar reasons—this fellow air sign has a very unique and complicated personality that keeps Gemini coming back for more!

Gemini is the third sign of the Zodiac, and a mutable (AKA flexible) air sign—extroverted, talkative, and always on the go. He needs constant mental stimulation, and with Gemini, there’s no such thing as a stranger—just a new friend waiting to be made. He’s not the most romantic, but having him around always promises for a memorable time. He’s his own dynamic duo and has a wide multitude of personality traits, interests, and more brainpower than he knows what to do with.

Expect to increase your friend group three times its size while you’re dating this air sign. Everywhere you go, he bumps into one of his buddies, an old classmate, or a friend of a friend of a friend he met once, and strikes up a conversation. He’ll force you to join in, too! Even the most socially-reserved person can pick up some conversational skills from their Gemini partner.

Geminis love to learn, and he needs to have his brain constantly stimulated in order to maintain interest in anything (or anyone). You can have rich, fascinating conversations with him that make you lose track of time, but you also have to entertain and intrigue him too–he wants to know what you think, and if it’s actually interesting. He’s also incredibly mischievous, funny, and playful, thanks to his ruling planet being Mercury, the trickster god. His strong sense of youthfulness is refreshing to be around, and you won’t ever feel bored with him, including the bedroom, where he happens to be very open-minded and down for anything.

Being an air sign, your Gemini has feelings–enough for the both of you–but prefers to analyze and talk them out. He’s quick and impulsive with everything he does, including what he says–he’ll just blurt it out and carry on. Despite Gemini’s reputation for being two-faced, what you see is what you get, even if it feels inconsistent at times. You won’t have to deal with indirectness or guessing games with this one as much as his changing moods.

As absolutely invigorating and exciting as it is to date a spontaneous Gemini, it also comes with some downsides. If you can’t fulfill his need for entertainment, say adios. He’ll text or call one of his millions of pals and find something to do with them instead, and tends to put his friends above the relationship in general. Even if your Gemini boy-toy is now the most respectful guy, there’s a chance that he used to be this way when he was younger.

On a broader scale, his adaptability can create a lack of consistency with his mood, interests, and personality. Yes, he can develop great ideas and opinions, but wouldn’t a bit of stability be nice? It can add pressure to the relationship because you feel like never have him figured out, while at the same time knowing that you also have to keep him on his toes to keep him interested. Because if he gets bored, he could head to the next adventure or relationship without looking back.

To make it work, you have to be a good listener and have a sharp enough wit to quickly respond to him. It’s also good if you demand just as much freedom and space as he does. At the end of the day, when the two of you are alone at home, he can devote as much time as you want to you. He’s not gushy with his feelings, but he can make laugh after a rough day and can talk you through it, which can be more helpful than just being a shoulder to cry on. Let your inner child come out and play with him, and you’re set.

President Trump has worried — along with House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions and other prominent opinion leaders — that Google exhibits intentional bias against conservatives. How do I know? I googled it, of course. Google, needless to say, denies that its “products or actions” are biased.

The problem is, both sides are wrong. Google has no incentive to favor one perspective over another, yet it’s impossible for its products to be entirely neutral. Search results, like so many other kinds of algorithms that rely on external sources of information, naturally expose whatever leanings or affinities that data reflects. This effect — called “algorithmic bias” — is fast becoming a common feature of our digital world, and in far more insidious ways than simple search results.

Whether Google is partisan is a matter of opinion. But consider the subtle ways that it reinforces racial stereotypes. Try typing “Asian girls” into the Google search bar. If your results are like mine, you’ll see a selection of come-ons to view sexy pictures, advice for “white men” on how to pick up Asian girls and some items unprintable in this publication. Try “Caucasian girls” and you’ll get wonky definitions of “Caucasian,” pointers to stock photos of wholesome women and kids, and some anodyne dating advice. Does Google really think so little of me?

Of course not. Google has no a priori desire to pander to baser instincts. But its search results, like it or not, reflect the actual behavior of its audience. And if that’s what folks like me click on most frequently, that’s what Google assumes I want to see. While I might take offense at being lumped in with people whose values I deplore, it’s hard to argue that Google is at fault. Yet it’s clear that such racially tinged results are demeaning to all parties involved.

Algorithmic bias can even influence whether you are sent to jail. A 2016 study by ProPublica discovered that software designed to predict the likelihood an arrestee will re-offend incorrectly flagged black defendants twice as frequently as white defendants in a decision-support system widely used by judges. You might expect such predictive systems to be wholly impartial and therefore to be blind to skin color. But surprisingly, the program can’t give black and white defendants who are otherwise identical the same risk score, and at the same time match the actual recidivism rates for these two groups. This is because blacks are re-arrested at higher rates than whites (52 percent vs. 39 percent in this study), at least in part because of racial profiling, inequities in enforcement, and harsher treatment of blacks within the justice system.

From the standpoint of a defendant, this is patently unfair: Blacks are scored as “high risk” much more often than whites with similar characteristics. But from the standpoint of the courts, the percentage of each group predicted to re-offend that went on to do so was equal. (That is, black and white defendants who scored 7 out of a possible 10 by the algorithm were re-arrested at the same rate.) In short, the algorithm can’t correct for an actual imbalance in the treatment of blacks and whites; at best it can accurately reproduce this unfortunate reality.

In the financial domain, this issue raises its head in the granting of credit. It might be true that home buyers in certain neighborhoods are more likely to default on their loans. Yet using this fact to deny any individual a mortgage violates the Fair Housing Act (a practice known as “redlining”). Steering clear of such prohibited factors is tricky since an automated credit-evaluation program might simply latch on to some correlated item, such as how many families reside at the same address. To compound the problem, artificial intelligence (AI) systems do not lend themselves to easy interrogation or explanation for their decisions, which reduces accountability. Sometimes, black boxes are truly opaque.

One particularly difficult-to-detect source of algorithmic bias stems not from the data itself, but from sampling errors that may over- or underrepresent certain portions of the target population. For instance, a face recognition system trained mainly on light-skinned images is likely to perform better on Caucasians than on people of color. In a recent famous case of such bias, a Google search for “gorillas” included many images of African Americans, to the company’s embarrassment.

As we delegate more of our decision-making to machines, we run the risk of enshrining all sorts of injustices into computer programs, where they could fester undetected in perpetuity. Addressing this critical risk should be an urgent social priority. We need to educate the public to understand that computers are not infallible mechanical sages incapable of malice and bias. Rather, in our increasingly data-driven world, they are mirrors of ourselves — reflecting both our best and worst tendencies, whether or not we wish to acknowledge the flaws. Like the Evil Queen in the legend of Snow White, how we react to this new mirror on the wall might say more about us than any computer program ever can.
