#on the PHONE.

[notquiteaghost]

yday while buying the hifi system the guy serving me said "oh yeah you can't do contactless it's over the limit" and i said "yeah even if it wasn't i'd put my pin in anyway my bank are SO paranoid" n he went "oh?" n i said "one time i made an online payment and they stopped my card yeah" which! they haven't done in months!!

and i just bought moon colony bloodbath right. via bandcamp, a reputable company who i have given money before. and then i checked my phone and what did i see! but a notification from my bank that they have stopped my card and do i recognise this payment! it was a FIVER. to BANDCAMP.

I wish it was easier to talk about mobile phone addiction without sounding like a boomer

one of the most infuriating things about becoming an adult is when you realize that it actually is 10x easier to solve problems by making a phone call vs literally any other communication method

I'm as grateful for cellphones as the next person, but sometimes I think about how everyone having a phone on them at all times really did cause us to loose some things as a society. I mean - for example, kids these days will never experience their car breaking down and needing to find the nearest place with a phone they can use. They're never going to have the opportunity to tentatively approach a house only to discover that it's full of queer people having a party hosted by a transvestite to celebrate his creation of a sex homunculus, stay the night, and loose their virginity while unintentionally partaking in cannibalism. It's tragic, that kind of gay sexual awakening just doesn't happen these days because of cellphones.

i just said out loud, “you know what really gargles my goyles?” and then i had to just sit there and accept that i now live in a world where someone said those words in that order. and now so do you. what a tangled web we weave

if 3000+ devices exploded simultaneously and thousands got injured, 37+ ppl died in usa or london or france anywhere in the imperial core this website would be talking about it nonstop. my coworkers' relatives are lebanese and he hasn't been able to contact them because everyone's nervous of using anything with a lithium battery. the kids from diaspora are teaching their parents how to turn off find my phone and airdrop and other geolocating options. it's absurd to me people are carrying on like its normal, or just don't care cause c'mon ppl blow up in the middle east all the time, right?

It's hilarious to me to imagine Sonic could not keep a regular phone for longer than a week without breaking it
