“malls” barely exist anymore and mostly just sell crap from amazon but more expensive

amazon is 99% cheap contemptible garbage

too many places to look online. too many traps because social media drives consumption. quality is almost impossible to vet from the internet.

"disruptive" companies have made life worse for everyone but their (((founders))). Is there anyone who wouldn't like to chuck delivery apps, uber, airbnb, and social media and go back to talking on the phone or in person, staying in hotels, taking taxis and going to the market, butcher, etc...? Having to sign up for 600 streaming apps is so much better than normal TV and the old monoculture!

Completely and totally agree. And even if you want to try and live in the Old Ways (i.e. like it's 2009), it's becoming functionally impossible.

All tech has done is remove the texture of life while telling you it's a good thing. "Use our App and get back to Doing What You Love." As though people have all these fantastic hobbies. But all it means is "get back to scrolling because there is literally nothing else left that you need to do to function."

the bigger issue is that everyone already has everything. it's futile to try to get something cool or unique.

this is CR. it's so easy to buy whatever you want, whenever you want -- any chink garbage you need can be at your doorstep in 2 hours. nobody wants anything bc they have it.

Tech and automation are really heckin good for the 0.01% of people who have a Brilliant Idea to Change the World which usually means inventing more automation. Imagine if the people who come up with the next 'Coinbase' or 'Polymarket' or 'Waymo' had to wrap their own kids Christmas presents instead of paying some third world immigrant to do it. We cannot impede Progress!

You can't even just buy people a bottle of alcohol anymore as a last resort because nobody drinks.

Somewhat related but I was at a Christmas party discussing bowling and how PE and Bowlero were ruining it. This zoomer girl mentioned how people were getting injured playing pickleball and the new TikTok trend was bowling and it like all coalesced in my mind how I bet these PE firms are paying email girl influencers to astroturf TikTok about how bowling is popular so they get other zoomers to pay surge pricing to go bowl. It’s insane how they’ve needlessly complicated such a simple activity and it seems apps and tech does this for EVERYTHING while claiming it’s simpler and more convenient.
