  • I love when instagram goes: “have you heard about …?” Presumably asking this as they just showed me an ad about it that i completely ignored and i just go “no i haven’t”.

    The only use of showing me ads is them getting paid and wasting my time. I don’t pay attention to them because i either don’t need/want it, just bought it or can’t afford it.

    It’s been a long time since i bought something as a result of watching an ad.



  • My wife and i got stuck living in 14sqm and currently have 60sqm like it’s an absolute palace…they are telling me that 58sqm for one person is tiny?

    The stuff i could do with this place if i lived alone, endless options.

    Needless to say i struggle with seeing 58sqm for a single person as small.

    When money still had some real world value (more income equaled more things in return, which is a thing of the past here. When i make more they just jack up the rent to compensate) we used to have a 100sqm house, which was pretty damn huge but still less than 58sqm per person.





  • Minimum wage goes up slightly every year, but the cost of everything goes up slightly more.

    It’s just a brake on our decline.

    Everyday life has gone from: single income 4 person family: no issues. All the way to: dual income, 2 person household: not enough money to buy the food required to keep doing your job.

    Something needs to break, i can only hope it’s all these planet ruining, greedy ass, underpaying and overcharging businesses.




  • I’m also aware of the amount of plastic waste that passes through my hands.

    The difference here being: i notice what is necessary and how much of it is useless extra added on by the manufacturer for advertisement purposes.

    The latter is usually 50% and even as bad as 80% in a lot of cases.

    I’m not ashamed, i’m dissapointed they are allowed to keep doing this while i’m forced to make all kind of changes (i use forced because they artificially increase the price to stop us from doing things)


  • I’m like this but i’m not anti social enough to be among the anti social nerds (usually just tired of dealing with people’s nonsense, like the: stuffs 3 pizza’s in his face and watches me eat a cookie, now blames the entire universe for him being fat and has no understanding why i’m skinny type of bullshit) and for some reason i’m not good enough at games to be liked by fellow gamers and lack the “addicted to video games” factor where they stay up until 2am to play video games and be less than useful during the next work day, while i went to bed at 9 after playing games for 30 minutes instead of 6 hours.

    My employers love me tho, but never enough to pay me a decent wage, with the exception of one that is now shut down.
