Everything SUCKS now and we all know it. And, it’s more than just planned obsolescence- the slop is everywhere and its unavoidable. It’s not like technology is regressing or engineers are getting dumber… So then why is everything so bad that the economy is on its way to demise?

    I learned how to repair most of my important stuff these days because i’m so fucking sick of it. If clothes tear in places, i sew them up and never buy that brand again.

    I got some expensive “work” jeans, sold as manual labor jeans. Tore while working from my comfy home office. I work from home. Fucking insane.

    Fuck subscriptions, fuck planned obsolescence. Stop buying shit. Let the market fucking crash.
