“Disney+ will now have ads on every plan.”
You know what? Where the hell is my DVD player? I’m ready to go back to buying movies, owning them forever, and watching them in peace.

One of the biggest financial jokes is celebrating that your house went from $300K to $700K.
Congratulations.
Your property taxes doubled.
Your homeowners insurance doubled.
Contractors charge more.
Repairs cost more.
And the next house you want went from $500K to $1.1M.
You didn’t necessarily become richer.
The entire housing market just got more expensive.
the best thing you can do for yourself is actively increase your surface area for luck to hit you. go outside, try new cafes, museums, events, take a new route home, speak to people, ask questions, side quest. the more you do, the more serendipity and synchronicity will find you.
This is free advice from an expensive psychologist.
If you're an anxious person, do everything for fun. Go to a job interview for fun. Submit documents for fun. Start a blog for fun. Anxiety feeds on importance. Don't make everything a matter of life and death.
The World Health Organization has announced that we will start running out of clean water (drinking, showering, laundry, dishes) in the next FEW YEARS. We are officially entering water bankruptcy. This is a direct result of AI. Please stop using it now.
Crocodiles don't die of 'old age' in the traditional sense. If protected from starvation, disease, & accidents, they can easily live for over a century.
Unlike most mammals, which stop growing after adulthood, crocodiles grow throughout their lives, as long as they have sufficient food & suitable habitat.
Crocodiles are cold-blooded. They rely on external heat to regulate body temperature; their metabolism is very slow, & they can survive for months without food.
This particular crocodile, Henry, was notorious as a man-eater in the Okavango River, having killed multiple people in the early 1900s.
A hunter named Sir Henry Neumann was sent to catch and kill this problem animal. Instead, he captured the crocodile alive & transferred it to a conservation centre, & so it was named Henry.
Henry has fathered >10,000 offspring and remains reproductively active at >125 years of age.
Every species, in its own way, is extraordinary.
I genuinely think a lot of millennials are reaching the same conclusion at the same time.
We grew up watching technology make life better every year. Cell phones. iPods. Smartphones. An app for everything. It felt like the future was arriving right in front of us, and we couldn’t wait for what came next.
Then somewhere along the way, it changed.
Everything became a subscription. Social media became algorithms. Every day feels like another once-in-a-lifetime event. The things that were supposed to save us time somehow ended up demanding more of our attention than ever.
We were sold convenience.
What we got was a world that feels faster, louder, more expensive, and somehow less human.
And that’s why so many people I know dream about a completely different life now. Not more technology. Not more optimization.
Just a quiet job, a flip phone, a small town, and a place where life feels real again.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but can we start a Class Action Lawsuit against the U.S Governent?
U.S Citizens vs United States.
Gross negligence in handling taxpayer funds would be a good start.
Who's with me?
Barack Obama was targeted 11 times in assassination attempts during his two terms.
We don't remember any of them because they were handled through proper channels, professionally, and he isn't a whiny bitch.
I really feel like workdays should be 10am–3pm or 9am– 2pm. There’s no reason for people to spend most of their lives at work. Let people go home and have time for their families, partners, friends, and rest. That’s why everyone is so miserable today.
