  • "Specifically, we were narrowing in on these questions about what the experience of a typical consumer is, a typical person versus a more extreme example. "

    He’d deny it if put to him this way prolly, but why these people gotta go implicitly saying that “news media” and “entertainment media” are qualitatively the same? Politics have been narrowed to nothing and the viewfinder we glimpse them thru a mere consumptive habit. Why this hole and not the others? As opposed to “what’s behind the hole?”



  • Prolly, clothes have gotten so bad. My little brother gave me his punk jacket for my birthday when I was like 19 and I had that for over 10 years. I bought the same model from the same company and it was more threadbear and I’d patched it more times in 3 years. I’m still using the old one because it’s in better condition and a replacement can’t be had like 16 years in now.

    Ever since puberty there is exactly one shoe company that makes something kinda close to my actual shoesize because I have “medical abnormality” seriously wide feet, like a men’s 20 4e is the smallest shoe with my width or some crap (men’s 9.5 length, wide, wide, wide) so I can saywith 100% certainty because they’re the only shoes I’ve bough since 2003 that by 2013 their shoes went from lasting three years to six months. I hate it.
















  • I’m just a coward, I’m not willing to die for my beliefs cause dying is scary and maybe, maybe, if I keep my head down I can . . . nothing really. I make less than 10k a year, I don’t have a toilet or shower, I have a minifridge and induction hob and live mostly off rice and lentils and peanut butter, my ‘house’ got to 115 for weeks this summer cause metal roof and shit insulation and come winter it will stay ambient +15. I keep going because I’m too afraid to do anything else. I only leave the house for groceries and work. Sometimes I hope something good might happen.

    I do have two dogs, four cats, and a long distance boyfriend who is the first personal connection I’ve had other than my mother since I was in HS. So there’s that, that’s nice.
