This is the weirdest fucking thing I’ve seen on the Internet in a long time.

I’ve also been very burnt out lately and add a loss of how I can come back the alt right infiltration of everything local. This comment might be one of the most inspiring things I’ve read in a long time, thank you for sharing.
I sympathize. This kept me on Facebook far longer than I wanted to be. If I wanted concert dates, event invites from friends, etc, I had to use it. I cut that cord eventually, but I get invited to way less stuff than I used to.
Honestly, people committed to plans in a way they don’t now. I rarely had last minute cancellations when I was younger. Time might have been cut short or something, but people showed up. Changes of plans happened well in advance. Occasionally, I got stood up, but it was rare.
Now, I’d say probably 20-30% of the time, plans get changed last minute or more rarely, somebody bails.
Otherwise, yeah, having a mobile computer/phone in my pocket is indispensable and I’d never fully give it up.
Thankfully for things other than books (and maybe also for books), a lot of companies offer two day shipping now. Sometimes there’s an order minimum for that but I find that most of the time my purchase exceeds the order minimum anyway.
