Eventually the entire Earth sky will just be one giant Amazon drone factory, and also they will control a monopoly on daylight until the Future Far Left forces of Antifa 2.0 and the Future Far Right forces of Cop Lives Matter Inc. put aside their longstanding feud in order to fight! For the light!

Let's see... Pay more for features I don't even use or care about or keep using my older phone that does everything I want. The greed of these companies, which they use new "features" to justify is absurd. Swap out the battery when it degrades. Don't let these companies trick you into upgrading every year or two, it's going not going to end well if we allow them to convince us to do so.

And that's one of the things that bothers me so much, they purposefully "obsolete" gadgets that still do everything you want just to force you to give them more of your money. First up against the wall, I say.

You’re just sitting down for dinner, your phone buzzs and you get a notification your package order delivery is about to occur. All of a sudden, a large packaged box crashes through the skylight in the ceiling and lands squarely in the big bowl of mashed potatoes, sending mashed potatoes everywhere.

Your phone buzzs again and you get a notification: “Your package has been delivered”.
