“Oh you’re complaining about it on social media using your SMART PHONE” yeah man bc you need access to the internet, cell phone, and some internet footprint to even think about getting hired now a-days. Something that’s been made a social necessity being made unethically that’s constantly called out on its existence can’t really be compared to you choosing to use afterpay to afford your McDonald’s DoorDash order every fucking night and I won’t apologize for that
Oh 100%. Overconsumption in the tech sector is a massive issue rn. People going into debt to get the new $1,000 every year just to throw the other one away is insane. I went from a 12 to a 16 and that’s only bc it stopped working (camera was broken and I was required to take photos for work, battery stopped charging and only held for a few hours, dropped service randomly, Bluetooth stopped connecting, microphone didn’t work during phone calls etc). I’ll keep the 16 until it dies too
I tend to replace my phones once every ~4 years. I wish I could make them last longer, but for work I’m often in the field and my phones get pretty beat up after a couple years, extreme humidity, extreme dirt, massive abuse on the battery, etc. (Never cracked a screen though!).
It’s an idiom that refers to any positive result of hard work. If I work hard at McDonalds and get a paycheck, I can this accurately refer to the money I make as the “fruits of my labor”. How can I not claim rightful ownership of a paycheck I worked hard for? And who are you to say or judge me for what I do with it, as long as my decisions are legal?
Yall purposefully missing the point. The issue isn’t eating fast food. It’s a majority of your meals being delivered from fast food restaurants to you. You don’t even pick it up yourself. God forbid actually cooking. All the while complaining about not having any money. You spend 8x as much on food bc you refuse to cook or pick up take out yourself on the occasion you want take out.
