Too expensive. Not owner repairable. Too much unnecessary tech baked in.

There’s a path forward for EV’s, but I don’t think the current philosophy is it.

Spotify is an evil company. Bad for artists, bad for consumers. I’m glad to have quit using their service.

Dump-truck-ass Pixar Moms are my kryptonite.

03 Ford Focus. Terrible transmission, on board computer fried, all kinds of random engine and sensor issues. Finally found an honest mechanic that said it would cost more to fix everything wrong with it than to just take the L and get a new car. Took a loss on the loan and bought a Camry. Best decision I could’ve made. Nothing but Toyota since.

What a shitty human.

“How Long” by How to Destroy Angels. It’s a better post-apocalyptic story than most theatrical productions in just under 4 minutes.

The reasoning they gave me is exactly that. People driving like crazy post pandemic, and the fact that cars have become exponentially expensive.

My auto insurance rose 27% this year. My cars sit in a locked garage 20ft away from me practically all week long as I work from home. I was shocked to find my rates rose so high as I barely even drive at all anymore. Their solution was for me to get their data collection puck. What a fucking racket!

Similar to when my cat died. I’m still sad 2 years later, but the memories are fond and when I see a photo of her it brings me more joy than sadness. I know I gave her the best life and I continue to do the same for my current pets. Yes life is short and feels fleeting, but if I could give my cat the life I gave her a second time , I’d do it again every time.

Thank you for this. Wow, such an improvement!

People as a whole I dislike, however some individuals are great.

Thanks!

Any recommendations on distributors like that? I’m using DistroKid. While it’s fine, it’s not great.

This is a common occurrence at my home as well. When there’s heavy rain frogs get caught in our window wells, some make it inside, some get caught between the windows and screen. I just put on a pair of gloves, fish em out and set them free on higher ground.

Once my cat frantically came yowling up the stairs with a frog in her mouth. Set it down gently, unharmed and stared at me loudly meowing as if to say “look what I found, WTF is this? Do something about it.”

Creativity vs Theory. Jack isn’t technical by any means but does some creative stuff. Other guitarists dedicate their lives to theory and could run scales around him, but might not necessarily be more creative. I think there’s room for both, but some folks might disagree.

Love, human connection. The bond between people, animals and the earth. We are truly one when we take our blinders off.

It’s almost like he’s intentionally trying to tank this company. What would be the benefit for him? A massive tax write-off?

Feeling good. It’s early, and I know we need to keep that in mind. That said, more of the communities I used to follow have started setting up shop here and that is a good feeling. Now with Memmy on the App-store I feel at home and don’t have much if any real reason to go back to Reddit.
