Why not both?

just because you can do a thing didn’t mean you should do a thing.

Or something like that.

Government agencies being data brokers should also be a concerning issue.

Don’t you go givin folks ideas, now, whippersnapper!

So you’re paying through the nose. Ouch.

The employer pays half?!

Write a letter to the editors of major media outlets, including Forbes and wish. Complain bitterly about politics stifling business, innovation and your freedoms, courtesy copy your Republican and Dem representatives at state and national levels.

Antisocial is a personality disorder, but idk if they still call it aspd.

Dying of easily treatable disease because one can’t afford insulin or a healthy diet vs being loved to death? If only certain people had the choice. And I didn’t mean “loved” in the euphamistic sense.

I bet E*** loved that!

Common saying about sexuality where I live, “A woman should cover herself. A man’s going to be a man!” By man, I mean creep, but that’s not how most people, including women, feel, even though it’s literally creepy/pervy/and sexual assault.

I walked my dog past a church yesterday, baggy jeans and tee, and a guy who was letting himself in asked how I was and if I was behaving. I said I was fine and always behave. He literally leered so hard at me when he said I was having no fun that I couldn’t get home fast enough.

She just had a blind spot, assuming that because she wouldn’t dream of doing that, no one else would. And it is sad, to me, that she was robbed if that innocence in a very visceral way; but she did learn a valuable lesson and never forgot it, either

That’s what you think.

Iirc, some researcher or home user found out that iOS and Android are definitely spying on us. Probably windows too.

Meh. The phones give us less and less control and plenty to be annoyed over; but the ads are greedy, evil Google’s fault. I’m taking heat over their horrible air ai (see what I mean? And it did wait until I couldn’t see the word anymore!) autocorrect and/or packet loss on my phone. I really am biding my time, until I have time and money to switch to Fairphone or find alternative software that works with my hardware. Frankly, I wouldn’t have a smartphone at all, if I didn’t need it for certain things. Best of luck in your future endeavors, friend.

Great question, I usually close those immediately.

Ruby whatever her name was comes to mind.

Unfortunately, “common sense” isn’t common.
