Ever since someone framed the market as just a measurement of rich people’s feelings, it’s made a lot more sense

I want to see more of JDisco lmao, quality meme

Posting all the rare Jebs! I found from a 2015 Buzzfeed article

I’d say it’s a little of both.

People of all ages are certainly conditioned to record and photograph every little thing out of the ordinary, which takes away from being present. Phones in general are incredibly distracting from taking you out of the moment.

It’s also incredible technology the ability to capture any photo/video at any time. There’s no real tangible loss of taking too many pictures ie you aren’t wasting any film/money.

Photos/video are really just a way to remember the past. People in the 90s would record pretty benign stuff too with camcorders and cameras, just the tech was more expensive and not readily affordable and available like it is today.

Also the zoo in particular brings out the nature photographer larp. Documenting nature in the wild takes an incredible amount of skill, luck, and patience. At the zoo you cut out all the hard work and get the instant gratification of shots which would be borderline impossible irl

Is anyone going to look back fondly on sleeping zoo animals or shaky concert footage? Prob not. I just think the conditioning of it is a way to help us remember the past, so at the end of the day it’s only mildly annoying at worst, and pretty harmless.

I think a better example of technology alienation is a couple/family all scrolling on their phones during dinner together.

What’s the visa process like? I also live in the states for reference.

I took the Android leap from Apple about six years ago and never looked back. Androids are superior in almost every way when it comes to privacy and customization

Apple stopped being innovative around the time Steve Jobs died; each update is just more ways to spy and spam you with a slightly better camera. I will say iPhones are very user friendly, so there is like a 20 min learning curve converting from Apple to Android.

Also not sure where you are getting your phone plan, but there’s only 3 tower providers in the US now. Verizon, At&t, and T-Mobile. I’d avoid any of those as a carrier because they tend to overcharge.

Low cost carriers still operate service under 1 of those 3 company’s towers, so you’ll still get the same service but at a cheaper price. I use Boost Mobile, $50 a month with no hidden fees, month-to-month and somehow the price hasn’t gone up in five years.

This is like a 2k era celebrity excuse, surprised they didn’t pull the ol’ Lindsay Lohan dehydration

AB+ Gang rise up. Universal recipients (sigma parasite) and universal plasma donors. When receiving blood sometimes I’ll mix A, B, and O just to flex.

We pwomise we’re swawwy 🥺👉👈

Black Epstein be like

Thanks for the info, any idea how much Swift charges? Appreciate it

Close, a centrist is converservative but ashamed

To be fair, I doubt a true boomer would be able to understand any part of this comment. Any person born before 1993 can’t jpeg, all they know is download virus
