It really doesn’t. I also dislike the fact it can be more difficult to find some parts for older cars too, so even if you wanted to salvage, it may not be viable.

The removal of 3.5mm jacks with no simple, universal, physical way to connect an audio device has been such a thorn in my side.

I said that about my older reliable car. Until I was rear ended at a stop light and it was totaled. During a time that used cars were more expensive than new. (I did find an 8 year old Corolla with high miles and lots of body damage for $18k though!)

I went without a car for nearly a year. Had to buy one when my partner was forced back to work in the office.

Peeking at the used market, it’s still not great where I am. Better than 2022-23 at least.

I might have been mixing her up with another one. Maybe the Pinkie Pie? It’s been a while, my daughter loved that show when she was very young.

I didn’t watch a lot of MLP, but didn’t Fluttershy have very extreme reactions to stuff often, like loudly crying?

Now nearly half the population will know how I feel!

Sorry, bro-ettes.

The lighting details on this comic are especially gorgeous.

I’ll split my adult life into three parts.

When I was younger, I was decently attractive. I was an ideal weight, and I didn’t look tired all the time. I had the energy to groom myself and wear decent clothes. Most people seemed to want to help me or were nice to me. However, some people were just plain vicious to me. It was like I did something horrible to them, but as far as I know, I did not.

When life and my chronic illness kicked my ass, I was plain and somewhat unattractive. I became overweight. I had the energy for basic hygiene and to wear something that fits, and that’s it. I was told I had “stress in my face.” I was invisible. No one bothered me. No one wanted to talk to me.

When I had more energy to put into my appearance, I was maybe a 5, maybe a touch over. Still overweight, still pretty tired. (Been getting it medically checked out… No answers yet.) Getting a little more personal grooming and got some clothes that look pretty nice. Some people are a little nicer to me. No one has outright bullied me.

Granted, I am a woman. It might be different for men. I’m also not sure if someone is just angry at everyone if what you look like really matters.

Where is the RC?!

Who needs user-replaceable batteries, phones that are meant to be taken apart and repaired (aka… don’t glue the damn things together), or a device that doesn’t actively resist you changing your OS, when you have wrap around display?

From what I’ve seen, Instagram. I’ve never bought anything from Instagram so I’m not sure if it’s a built-in function, or if they use something like messaging and Venmo.

Agreed with the message but the graphics are giving me mixed messages. Cats like to show their butthole to you when they trust you.

(not so) fun fact. Despite there being an American cockroach, the German cockroach is the most common cockroach found in the United States.
