I canʼt believe I have to tell people this, but

• Donʼt buy smart home shit
• Donʼt download an app to get a free smoothie
• Donʼt sign up for something you heard about in a piece of junk mail
• Donʼt create an account with fucking McDonald's or Chipotleʼs or whatever
• Donʼt use a coupon or a discount for something you werenʼt going to buy anyway
• Donʼt sign up for free trials
• Donʼt let the devil in through the front door
• Donʼt let them sell you anything

You will not come out ahead.

So Roku makes you agree to new terms of service waiving your right to sue the company in order to keep using the hardware you paid for, then three days later reveals a data breach.

I guess weʼve given up pretending that capitalism is anything more than open war of all against all at this point?

Dot matrix printers were it, y’all. Want to print a single line of text? Ka-ching. Want to print a 7-foot-long “Happy Birthday” banner? I got you, fam.

Plus remember how satisying it was to tear the tracks off?

Out of ink? No problem, you can get a couple pages more, they’ll just be a little lighter, that’s all.

We gave it all away.

On this Prime Day, let me say: Make consumer choices for yourself, and more power to you if you can afford to have a conscience about it.

Iʼm not buying anything from Amazon today, and Iʼm working on phasing them out of my life altogether.

But I spent nearly a decade being a broke-ass single parent, and if youʼre judging somebody out here in the shit for saving a few bucks however they can, I hope youʼre prepared to pay them the difference.

Does anyone know if there is a resource that maps underground spaces in the U.S.? Iʼm thinking drain and sewer pipes, transit tunnels, and so on.

Imagine if the alchemists had succeeded in their goal of transmuting lead into gold.

Which kind of alchemist would you be?

You donʼt have to go see that movie or watch that tv show or read that book that “everyoneʼs talking about.” Not everyoneʼs talking about it if youʼre not. Talk about your thing.
