Me, stupidly checking the news: The lion, the witch and the audacit--HOW IS THERE MORE!?!

Suffice to say I will NOT be renewing that subscription next year.

You know, things that add real value to people's days.

Okay, so my hatred of ads might be a little over the top, but think about it. They're fucking EVERYWHERE. ->

Once you start paying attention, there's hardly a metre out there that isn't plastered with vapid attempts to make us buy shit.

Imagine if all those posters were of art. Or beautiful photography. ->

I'm aware that this seems like a really minor gripe in the grand scheme of things, but do we even notice how much of our time and our space is taken up by ads? ->

#ads #ohno #fuckoff #ihatethisshit #theworst #why #terrible #adbreak #fuckthis #nooooooo

when I say that the rich beg for money more than the poor ever have.

We need about 5% of that crap. The rest is for their wallets only.

Someone needs to take steps to limit the amount of ads. Seriously. ->

#ads #ohno #fuckoff #ihatethisshit #theworst #why #terrible #adbreak #fuckthis #nooooooo

and the fact that ads can keep any app or site alive, no matter how crappy, because of the revenue they bring in, essentially makes quality irrelevant.

On top of that, this is exactly what I mean ->

#ads #ohno #fuckoff #ihatethisshit #theworst #why #terrible #adbreak #fuckthis #nooooooo

they're basically used as a punishment ('if you don't give us more money than you can afford, guess what, we'll cram ads down your throat until you choke'), ->

#ads #ohno #fuckoff #ihatethisshit #theworst #why #terrible #adbreak #fuckthis #nooooooo

Two of them are in the beginning of each episode, the rest are divided on two separate ad breaks.

Can we just agree that this whole ad thing has gone too far? They pollute all parts of the public sphere, ->

I just renewed my Max subscription and regretted it instantly.

I'm watching The Handmaid's Tale (impressive show so far), and for every 50-or-so minute episode, there are now no less than 13 ads. ->

Appeals Court: Permanently Injuring A 13-Year-Old Because He Wouldn’t Take His Hand Out Of His Pockets Isn’t A Rights Violation Here we go again. Another cop given a free pass on brutality because established law had yet to inform Deputy Vincent Castoro that body-slamming a 13-year-old weighing less than 120 lbs. to the gro…
