  • Seriously though, don’t do violence.

    Why not? It’s a perfectly fair response to the violence perpetuated upon millions of “customers” annually, made “legitimate” by paid off lawmakers. Why should we not be allowed to respond in kind when they’re allowed to kill us - just because it’s in a more roundabout method? Fuck 'em. I’ve never been a gun type, but right-wingers have really been getting me to rethink that stance.





  • There are exceedingly few phones that have them anymore - particularly more powerful ones. I prefer a headphone jack because I don’t have to juggle keeping everything charged long enough for when I want to use it.

    A prime example is when I go to sleep. I live on a somewhat busy street in an apartment facing said street. I have noisy neighbors. My spouse is used to sleeping with the TV on (there are reasons for this which I understand) - thankfully, the screen doesn’t have to be on. As such, I use wired earbuds that block out most external sound, along with an audio track I’ve been using for many years on a loop to put (and keep) me to sleep. Show me any wireless earbuds that’ll last the night, block out sound, and not be too big to lay upon comfortably since I’m a side-sleeper (let alone not have controls accidentally activated by laying on them).

    ETA: Never mind that my Bluetooth earbuds always seem to develop a problem keeping contact with their charge contacts in the case before long, so it’s not infrequent that I go to use them and they’re dead when they shouldn’t be.
