Made me think of something that Brett Easton Ellis would write.

I smoked for a decade and have been quit for 19 years.
I donate to Planned Parenthood AND I don’t eat at Chick-fil-A. Win-win.
It’s not you. If I’m at a RESTAURANT and can’t hear my friends, I leave. I won’t spend money at a place I have to yell to be heard (unless there’s a band I specifically want to see or I’m at a bar, but even bars have limits).
I had to buy a Clicker for college in a day when any number of phone apps, or even the Smart board, would have done exactly the same thing. I think it cost about $150 and the only thing it did – THE ONLY THING IT DID – was serve as an expensive and drastically crippled version of Kahoot. Abject waste of money for all parties involved.
It’s the level of commitment. You can start and stop online activities with almost no preparation or planning. When you watch a movie, you have to mentally prepare yourself to be in one spot and paying attention to one thing for an hour and a half. When you play video games, it takes effort to turn on the console or launch Steam / Epic / whatever.
I didn’t read this as OP wanting others to decide for them, but to help them think things through; maybe get a new perspective.
Why build one when you can build two for twice the price?
I’d go with Possessor by Brandon Cronenberg. I’ve only seen it once so far, and the unfolding of the story was such that you had to work for it. It wasn’t impenetrably dense, but I definitely had to give it the attention it demanded.
I think you’re being just a touch dramatic, but aight, dude. I don’t have any relationship with Amazon other than being a Prime subscriber.
Just to be clear, what they pay their employees and the commercials they show made you feel enslaved?
I don’t understand this mindset. Could you elaborate a bit? What about Amazon’s service or products made you feel enslaved by them?
Curious, when would you say that pirating is “very moral and ethical?” Not judging one way or the other, just curious.
The American public school system as it currently exists is largely a joke.
