Companies in the 2000s: You wouldn't download a car! Digital copies are still stealing, even if the original copy remains with us.

Companies in the 2020s: That digital copy, which you have paid for, doesn't really belong to you. We're removing it from your library now.

Companies deleting media you've literally purchased is 1000x more realistically "stealing" than digital piracy, you cannot change my mind

I do think some people need to realize you cannot Amazon prime one day free shipping your way into a friendship/relationship

[weird-goodbyes]

sometimes it’ll be inconvenient. sometimes you will have to sit through a movie you don’t enjoy and still say, “it was nice!” sometimes you’ll have to forgive them for things, and sometimes you’ll have to have tough conversations. human connection is often about learning how and why and what and when to care about another person. at least the ones that are worth it. it might cost a couple more emotional dollars, and the shipping is a couple business days more, but it’s worth it.

Real quick add-on because a lot of people are commenting on this in the tags. I really felt like adding the word "sometimes" and the phrase "don't enjoy" (as opposed to actively hate) would convey my meaning, but it obviously did not (that's on me!). so, to clarify, no, I am not advocating that you just constantly lie to your friends about enjoying a movie you didn't like. I was trying to imply that sometimes you probably should throw them a bone or be like...tactful and mindful of the situation. Like if it's my friend's favorite movie in the entire world, I am probably going to be like, "hey, neat movie" as opposed to being like "I didn't like it." Or like I have a friend who recommends me a bunch of shit and honestly, we do not have the same taste, but every now and then I'll be like "hey, that was nice" because it's sweet she wants to share these things with me and sometimes I'd rather watch a movie recommended by a friend that's not my cup of tea than one I found on my own because I like yapping.

Anyway, to sum it up. Nuance is dead. Either lie 100% of the time, or always tell the truth. Look your friend in the eyes and either say "that shit was garbage and you have the movie taste equivalent of ordering tater tots at a pub off the kid's menu" OR look your friend in the eyes and say "this was the best movie I ever saw, you should be nominated for an Emmy for choosing movies, they should make that a category." Never find a middle ground. This is totally what I said and intended. (before anyone yells at me, this is a joke and I think everyone's criticisms are valid because I didn't clarify enough okay love you)

the doctor told me aliens keep killing his companions so I asked how many companions he has and he says he just goes to earth and gets a new companion afterwards so i said it sounds like he's just feeding his companions to aliens and then he started crying

“everyone is mad at me and they just won’t tell me” —> “no one has said anything about being mad at me and i haven’t done anything to warrant being mad at so if someone is silently fuming about me and not saying anything that’s their problem and actually quite weird of them and i can effortlessly move on with my life”

[cheaphalloweencostume]

this took SUCH a huge deal of unlearning because, like so many of you, i came out of a home where being quietly in trouble WAS the default state, and i DID grow up not just with the assumption but borderline religious conviction that Everyone Is Mad At Me, I Am Bad, I Must Exist In A Constant State of Attempting to Pacify The Natural Rage I Inspire In Everyone. and no it actually turns out that my family are the freaks . and yours are too

[cheaphalloweencostume]

“this isn’t true because i DEFINITELY silently fume at people in the hopes they’ll figure out what they did and apologize” that’s not good. you shouldn’t do that

“this isn’t true because the ex-friendship that traumatized me ended explosively after they were mad at me and never told me why” that’s not good. they shouldn’t be doing that

“i don’t think this is true because my current friend group is constantly icing me out until i figure out what ive done to upset them and properly apologized without being told” hey thats not good. they should not be doing that

if the peacefulness of your relationship with someone (familial, romantic, friendly, anything) can be destroyed by effective communication/asking them for effective communication, you have got to get out of there. if you can’t get out of there, you’ve got to throw away any ideas about what that person thinks of you because they have their own shit to figure out before they can accurately read anyone else

forget everything anyone has ever told you on the matter the truest marker of adulthood is starting to hear the siren call of high quality kitchenware

[tainbocuailnge]

to be clear you SHOULD buy that cast iron pan and you SHOULD buy that knife set and you SHOULD buy that fancy rice cooker and you SHOULD buy that novelty mug. high quality kitchenware is always worth it you’re literally gonna be using that almost every day

[nudityandnerdery]

This seems like a good post to include this link on:

Your Cookware Got Worse On Purpose

One buyout firm quietly collected Pyrex, Corelle, Instant Pot, and Oneida. Farberware is a name on a 200-year lease. And the pans still wort
