An informational note that is appended to the post itself, not a regular user reply, if that's what you're thinking. Glad it wasn't "slammed" though

Life's too short to avoid something you actually enjoy just because other people told you it's not good enough.

A person with a clock knows the time. A person with two does not.

I totally agree with Samsung being bullshit. As for how people can accept that, well, it's probably the only ecosystem they know. My experience is anecdotal, but I've been to parts of the world where it's iPhone vs Samsung. Like, USB-c is a Samsung plug. So, just as people get attached to the iPhone UI, regardless of model, people do the same with Samsung.

Speaking of bullshit, has anyone elseatched Pixel's deletion of the back button? While I've been conditioned on how it works, there's still a number of app swipes that turn into "back" commands instead.

I miss the Nexus lineup.

Conservatism believes the minorities (of any demographic) want to take revenge on them and punish them. It's so fucking telling that they KNOW they are intentionally hurting minority groups for the own [perceived] benefit. They believe minority groups want to enact their own anti-majority laws because... The majority wants to enact their anti-minority laws on minorities. Let me be clear, the majority is the largest demographic, not a 2/3 majority, not even a 51% majority. Just the largest group. 33% wants to hurt 6 other 17% groups. That's any demographic you want to measure. "Christians" vs ag/aeth/mus/jew/hindu/bud. White euro vs african/latin/asian/indian/mid east/slavic.

None of these groups want revenge. They want equality.

Every fear of minorities is a projection of their own tactics, a justification for their own acts. The party of "tough guys" lives in fear. Fear of cities, fear of skin color, fear of immigrants, fear of not having an emotional support gun, fear of other religions, fear of measured facts hurting their feelings, fear of poverty, fear of invasion, fear of other languages. So they enstill that fear into every other group they can. We have insane abilities to communicate globally, insane amounts of corporate wealth hoarding, insane greed over resources, and yet they're still playing the dark forest trope, telling you every noise in the night is out to kill you. .

Son of a bitch (unmarried woman) / bastard (born outside of wedlock). Both are pretty casual at this point in my American region. My grandmother meant it if she said it, though. But this all turned around, possibly nationally, in 2015 with the release Nathaniel Rateliffe's hit single, SOB.

At least it's short term. "Have a good rest of your day. I don't give a shit about your tomorrow though"

That's 3 reasons, none of which are any more concrete than the other.

  1. Public speakers that talk too much
  2. Politicians that exaggerate/lie
  3. Wind
