Yeah, sorry, it was the only place I could find the meme.

They may not have known his name, but there was a time when (hopefully soon to be former) New Zealand prime minister Chris Luxon became the face of shitty landlords the world over.

“I just wanted a series where a twink and a princess fight a pigman over magical triangles”

…so it’s okay if they steal that work from others who did?

…what is actually the point of the UN if they’re unwilling to say authoritatively that it’s a war crime to bomb a fucking primary school?

While I agree that this sounds like all the drawbacks of an ereader with none of the bonuses of a phone, I think compartmentalisation is a pretty big factor.
