physical media

Why stream movies online when you can spend even more money and take up even more space with an exhaustive collection of blu-rays, dvds, and for the truly committed, reels of 16mm film. Trust me fellas, nothing gets a lady randier than when she sees you have the vast majority of the Criterion Collection arranged against your bedroom wall. Ideally physical media should be paid for with your parents money, but if you are a so-called "self sufficient adult" it's also acceptable to purchase these movies with your own hard-earned cash. And if anyone is to question your propensity for accumulating the aforementioned objects in question, just remind them of how the bit-rate and sound compression is vastly superior then what you get through streaming. When in doubt, always remember the bit-rate!

physical media

you will be sad if your favourite movie disappears from the internet forever. have a backup. also if you love something having it physically in your possession is a tremendous feeling

Physical media

You never need a subscription service if you actually just own copies of your favourite media. I will admit moving is hard though.

time theft

nobody at your bullshit email job is going to perish if you are away from your computer for fifteen minutes. don’t clock out. get paid to be in the sun. relish in every moment that you have no Slack messages to answer and do something that counteracts the soul-crushing pain of staring at a screen all day. whether you rest your eyes, read a chapter of a book, walk around your block - whatever it is, steal time because your employer probably isn’t paying you well enough to merit staring into the Outlook abyss for eight hours.

using your addictive personality for good

i have tendencies toward addiction and i often form habits that are pretty destructive with it, but about two months ago, i started walking and listening to audiobooks and just totally clearing my mind, and it’s a new, actually helpful addiction. i go on at least two two-mile walks a day, sometimes further if i have time. responding to my sensory-seeking urges by pounding the pavement has actually been life-changing. i think we elevate and laud the ”hard” physical activities like going to the gym, running, pilates, etc., but i’ve always been really solitary when working out, running makes me sick to my stomach, and pilates and other group fitness classes are too expensive. additionally, walking has been proven to be just as good for you as running and less harsh on your joints. i can’t believe i finally found something that’s 100 percent free and so fucking simple to calm the buzzing under my skin and that fiery need to feel something, and it’s something i learned to do before i was a year old. for once, i feel comfortable in my own head.
