Disagreeing with my wife when she's about to do some dumb shit

Are Japan that far in the future that they're using CD the same way we use vinyl?

I would guess we as outsiders think it's worse than it is, hearing only the bad stuff. We're not hearing about great new sales at bed bath and beyond or whatever, we're only hearing about the heavy handed deportations and human rights violations. Which is obviously bad but its easy to confuse "probably not as bad as it sounds" with "probably not actually that bad".

I don't think I'm communicating the point i was trying to make very well but whatever

I'm with you there. It's going to be cool and I really want it, but I've already completed it a bunch. I'm never going to be able to get properly excited like I would for ES6

Maybe they're taking the view that the next guy might be better. Like when your friend has a mental breakdown and you stick around to see if they'll make it back.

What irks me the most about that kind of attitude is the idea that stuff has to make money to be worthwhile. It's perverse. Nobody is allowed personal growth or passions any more, absolutely everything needs to be grinded out as a side hustle.

Tell someone what you do or create in your free time and half the time they'll start asking what your channels for monetisation on that are. Do you sell it on etsy? You making videos on that? Why not try contacting local business and selling that skill? Did you know you could sign up for this signal-boosting ad-share service to maximise engagement so you can easily compare your ROI?

And inside you're dying because "dude, no, i just wanted to try my hand at making a spice rack"

He tried but

I'm shocked

Hands up anyone who's surprised

It's surprising to me that married people are falling for this shit. I thought it was just incels desperate for anything that might give them a chance or an excuse.

Can we cool it with the atrocities for a bit?

What an odd thing to say
