sometimes the side chick ain’t even a chick sometimes it’s the dessicated corpse of a past you venerate and mythologize in your mind but can never return to because that is the only place it ever existed
Ugh, was having a great time mocking my recently imprisoned rival when I noticed the camera positioning makes it so that I appear behind the bars, thus framing me as trapped in a metaphorical prison of the narrative, now my whole day is ruined. Fuck.
The modern human imagination that has shaped Florida has centered on profit or willfully misunderstood the landscape by severely “terraforming” it in ways that weaken its own organic disaster response—including building unaffordable housing that favors affluent, largely white homeowners. Even Disney World touts that it was created out of worthless swampland. This impulse, this mortal wound we keep inflicting on Florida, has been exacerbated by three straight Republican governors who have allowed big developers and other destructive special interests to influence and create public policy. We are always draining swamps and marshes as if they were worthless. We rip out mangroves along the coast—natural barriers to storm surge—and are aghast at the catastrophes that occur and their impacts on human life.
Welcome to the future, where you don’t own anything and the stuff you rent stops working once your phone has no signal.
App powered car? 🤦♀️
I wish people remembered the age old wisdom that if something doesn’t absolutely require an Internet connection to function, it shouldn’t be connected to the internet - same goes for apps.
Sometimes I’m glad that I’m too poor for my “cool future stuff” monkey brain to be set loose to buy stupid shit like this.
please please please do not buy into the Internet of Things. Digital displays for appliances are one thing, but you shouldn’t need the fucking internet to do your laundry or use the fridge.
