Its so weird, when I was financially unstable before this new pay raise, I would spend more than I should then beat myself up for it. Now that I have a plan to get out of debt and no longer have to stress out about money, I have to remind myself I can afford to do something. Not being stressed about money makes impulse buying so much less a thing and impulse control is held in check. Maybe we need to stop blaming people for how they spend their money, and realize that people when put under stresses are less rational when it comes to spending creating a psychological trap they can't get out of. My spending habits have switch 180 degrees and I now have the head space and look back on financial behaviors that were terrible ideas, but the stress made them sound reasonable. Money truly can buy happiness, just up until your needs are met and you have enough to help others out too.

Well, I can switch to a flip phone, or I can try to struggle my way through a carrier like USCellular (actually impossible to trace), or I can stick with my Pixel, that defaults to a keyboard that knows what app I'm using, rendering even Signal's P2P 256-bit useless.
Yeah, I try to switch keyboards....

It's fractally bad. It's bad at first glance, and then every level of closer inspection reveals new dimensions and magnitudes of failure.
This is a self-parodying vehicle. Absolutely fascinating to me that this could even get made, let alone that people would continue to defend it.
Griftology.

Fear and lies spread fast.
But truth and love root deep.
There is a path forward ... but we are programmed not to see it, rather to fear it.
This is where to start.

Just got a fraud alert text from Chase. “MCAFEE” charged $0.11 to my credit card. It was probably some sort of trial balloon transaction to see if I would flag it before the spammers racked up a bunch of charges.
This sort of theft is financial vandalism that we all pay for. It pisses me off.

Speaking of tofu, Pailin from Hot Thai Kitchen has a banger tofu episode in which she lets loose several tofu rants I agree with:
- in most of Asia, tofu isn’t a meat alternative
- tofu is often cooked with non veg items
- people who try to ‘make it like chicken / steak’ have no idea what they’re doing
- if you think tofu is horrible, I’m sorry you’ve not had great tofu and tofu dishes

Pailin is awesome, I’ll definitely watch this one. I have eaten a lot of tofu, but I always ended up liking the outside marinade best. Which is a shame.
And rants from knowledgeable people are always nice to watch. Thanks!
