I’ll give you youtube videos, but nobody NEEDS to watch YouTube so everyone around them is subject to it.

If you need a constant feedback loop to remember how to behave then you’re weak and won’t survive the winter.

Not sure how that addresses the option of putting your phone to your ear for a phone call. All phones still have a non-speaker phone call option.

People shouldn’t need to be publicly shamed into acting right.

Or they could, ya know, put the phone to their goddamn ear like a rational person. I don’t buy that speakerphone is their ONLY choice, especially on public transit.

Nihilism. Nothing matters therefore I am free to do anything. If I choose to make a positive impact in my tiny part of the world, no matter how small it is a net positive compared to if I decide to do nothing. I tried apathy for a while and it served no-one, not even me.

If the best you can do is vote against fascism then that is OK. If the best you can do is show up to local town/village meetings and have your voice be heard that is OK. If the best you can do is vague-post online about the state of America, that’s OK.

The only bad thing you can do is be silent. As long as you are willing to speak up about the issues that are important to you and the problems you see that need fixing, you are doing more than 90% of this country.

Live your life according to your values, and on those be uncompromising. Vote your conscience, and hold your elected officials to a higher standard. Realize that change comes slowly, and some things are simply out of your control.

You are not responsible for the things outside your power. You are not to blame for the failings of your nation. Have the greatest effect where you can and learn to recognize where you can’t.

We’re all in this together, and we’re all pulling for ya.

Dear Google.

YouTube Music is shit. Stop trying to combine your other services into YouTube music.

Google Play Music was good. Google Podcasts was… not awful

YouTube Music is the worst of both services.

Just stop
