Besides government/espionage shit
Plastic bags blowing around in the backs of pickup trucks, traveling at high speed down the highway.
WHY DON’T THEY BLOW AWAY‽
It’s like the universe is trying to tell us something profound about our existence.

When someone refers to me by name - without me having given them my name.
RCS messages, now include your first+last name as well as your google profile photo when you text a new number.
Had an acquaintance I only knew by her first name message me from a new number after getting a new phone; now I have her full name and a recent photo of her, despite her never giving me that info. Creepy, imo.
literally gave you that info by texting you
She never provided me with her last name, or a photo. Google decided to add that information on her behalf, without her knowledge; as the settings that dictate that behavior default to ‘show name and picture to people you message’.
Previously, a recipient would receive the number you’re sending from, the message you typed out, and the time it was sent. That’s it. If you wanted to include more info, you could; but that’s your decision, not Googles.
I’m so fucking sick of corporations ‘adding new features’, where they default to collecting your information and sending it to whoever they desire, then going ‘oh, well you could have turned that off’ as If I’m suppose to be go through every setting on every device twelve fucking times a day just to figure out and turn off whatever new data harvesting garbage they’ve added this time around.
Metadata isnt so meta after all
Generational abuse. I know my neighbors are doing it to their kids and years on now, all I can do is regularly show those kids through interactions with them and my kids that it doesn’t have to be like that. We’re not talking physical abuse. If it were, I woulda dealt with that bullshit long ago. We’re talking; you gotta play this sport, you gotta get these grades, you gotta worship this religion, you gotta do whatever tf we say and stand where we stand, etc etc. The best part, the primary thing the adults prattle on about is how much they hate their controlling parents and how much their kids don’t listen. It is the definition of insanity and it feels insurmountable and horrifying.
