hosts file block twitter/reddit/facebook/etc on all my computers. i guess i haven’t done it on my phone because i can’t be bothered [and regardless of how much i need a hit, i’m not gonna sit there on my phone browser for hours anyway]

i hate how this “best performers” rhetoric always comes out in WFH discussion. everyone should be able to work from home if it’s better for them regardless of if they’re The Best at their dunder-mifflin ass job
so? we aren’t allowed to take netflix screenshots at all
awful ethics aside what a disgusting waste of processing power. software already barely runs
old.reddit just loaded for me!
(honestly i think tim cook wrecked the company, he’s a pure bloodless businessman, thinking only about numbers and value extraction versus innovation and changing the world, which jobs, for all his faults, objectively did)
extras, commentaries, it’s nice seeing your favorite films on a shelf
i try to put in the disc, hit play, and just walk away so i miss all the garbage and the paragraphs warning me about prison time. kinda kills the mood
daguerreotype, mesmerizing
corporate twitter accounts suck ass
