I have way too many photos (9.9k), mostly memes, mostly which I will never see again. I have way too many musical artists in my library. For a long time I added practically every song I heard (and more albums from the same artists). All of this is on Apple. Is it worth going through and purging it (especially when the internet’s dying anyway and who knows what infrastructure we’ll have in five years or more)? Any advice for de-appleing for someone whose hyperfixations do not include computer nerd stuff?

    Reading the blogs linked in OP shows how annoyingly fast trends are changing or the “vibe is shifting”, I know I’m concentrating on all the wrong parts but is it really necessary to change trends every 5 years at this point? Especially when it comes with drastic body changes and it really affects femmes (and mascs and etc. as well to a lesser extent) I have a friend that got a BBL done to have this huge butt but apparently she’s upset that she caught on to the trend “too late” and now “Ozempic skinny” is what’s cool. How frustrating.

      Doesn’t that surgery have a nasty recovery time? I can’t fathom doing it because of a trend.

      i mean most trends arent that drastic, its good that things change over time it would be boring otherwise, natural trend changes are cool imo. unnatural trends driven by corporate greed suck tho and i try to disengage from them as much as possible im looking at u square vs rounded edges.
