For everyone deleting their period app data... I made this chart a few months ago for hormone stuff, I didn't realize it would also become my main period tracker. I have a little flag sticky to track where I'm at day-to-day. Goodbye digital age & historical data. Hope this helps
@jzellis Love that you call them Zombies. I think if we can all think of them like that and ignore them, things can really take a turn for the better. Shut off the tv, block them, stop giving them attention and they will whither away.

After 37 years as a solid American, I've left the U.S. My wife and I have been living in her home town of Melbourne, Australia since January, shortly before our baby was born.
We'd always talked about doing it someday, but something happened last year that forced our hand. 1/ 🧵
A world with more useless shit pimped at me by obscenely wealthy douchebags doesn't sound appealing.
A world with more 24 hour coffeeshops and bookstores (with cats), on the other hand, sounds like a world worth fighting for.
Is that what we want as a society? To defer to people who can literally only understand the world through the filter of their own bank account? To let these abject morons shape not just our economy but our civilization and our future?
It's not innovation if all you're innovating is ways to make yourself more money by making everything on earth ala carte or adding shit no one asked for or just charging more for less. You're not a genius, you're just kind of a horrible bag of shit.
Innovation is making things cheaper and better every time, making things repairable rather than replaceable, making things that make people's lives better first and foremost rather than merely making you more money. We're short on innovation these days.
They talk about how only they do innovation... but if innovation means a lower profit than iteration, or making worse products if they think they can get away with it, that's what they will always, always do, without exception.
Innovation my fat honky ass.
If cars were invented now, some cock would weld the hood shut and try to make it illegal to cut it open. You'd just have to buy a new car every time it broke. That's not innovation and it's not benevolence. Nothing capitalists do is altruistic unless it's by accident.
Not everything good can make money. Very few good things, in fact, can show an infinitely increasing profit every quarter or year. In order to do that, you either make shitty products or you do shitty things to make em cheaper and sell em higher. And some things should be free.
This is why it's so annoying when men flippantly order women to just get a gun (and shut up about how men harm us). Women don't experience the "justice" system like men. Especially if they're WOC.
