  • Not sure why you’re being shit on so hard in the comments. Speaking as someone who’s pretty guilty of soft ghosting people, including longtime friends. I don’t really mean to do it. I lie to myself and say I’ll reply later. Reason why I’m not replying at the time usually being lack of energy. My worldview is so bleak and warped from what it used to be that it’s unrecognizable. Sometimes I feel like why bother replying, I’ve got nothing new and if they ask how I’m doing it’ll just bring them down with the same old shit. My texting is mostly mechanical. Order ready for pickup, meeting location/time, etc. And I’m getting tired of tacking on positive lies to keep the vibe acceptable. “…but I’m making things work”, “…but I’m doing alright”, “…but things will get better soon I’m sure.”













  • I used to sell printers. Canon printers, more than any other brand, are purely just a vehicle to sell photo paper, ink, and ink subscriptions. Their laser units are another story, quite capable machines (not sure about lifelong reliability), but the inkjets are hot garbage. They have multiple models that cost less to purchase than the replacement cartridges… With the sort of build quality you might expect at that price point. HP, as awful as they are, never stooped quite that low afaik. Brother laser is the way to go, always.

    Edit just to shit even harder on Canon, the amount of those printers returned to store was 3x all others put together. Only had one Brother returned in my entire 2 years there, and that was only because of logistics, not the machine itself.
