  • My roommate got a top-of-the-line iPhone a while back. The choice to go with the most expensive iPhone was specifically so he could also use it as a camera.

    Pretty much every time I see him send or post a picture, it has the smudgy sheen, and pretty much every time, I tell him to clean his damn camera lenses. I think the camera roll in my Galaxy S21+ has, on average, better looking and more detailed photos than the ones on his phone. Not because the camera is better, but because I usually wipe the camera lenses before taking a picture.

    I agree, but I think shitty beauty standards and perceived societal pressures lead an unfortunate proportion of the population to believe that any fat on the body is bad and unattractive. I’m not a doctor or a dietician or anyone else that actually knows what they’re talking about here, but I think that looks like a healthy amount of fat to have on the body. Striving for less can lead people to make unhealthy choices, especially if they already eat a healthy diet and exercise regularly.



  • I stopped getting Doritos when they went above $4/bag (prices are in USD and are what is printed on the bag, not what is displayed on the store shelf). I was already on the fence when it was $3/bag and stopped buying it on impulse from convenience stores. I would still indulge occasionally, but only when I could snag a deal at the grocery store. Then, around the time of the COVID price gouging, it went above $5 and I consider that insane for tortilla chips sprinkled with powder. Last time I saw the price of a bag of Doritos, I was at a 7-eleven and it was over $6. That’s fucked up. You’re mostly buying air anyway.
