Let's see.
How can I justify the terrifying secret of waste of time, space, and money?
Fairly easily: I never deal with all three at once.
So paying 50 bucks for something that's worth 10/g with a 4g dried equivalency gives me a 10/g floater; in other words, the service economy is still going mightily strong.
What really annoys me is free shipping. Literally, the worst idea ever. They thought (and I did tend to agree) that the handling part of the shipping equation was irrelevant; I agree: if you buy something, it's supposed to arrive within, oh, I don't know - is a month average asking too much? Because buying something and having it arrive the next day is bad, but waiting two months for something that will be worth nothing in three is so much worse: I fucking hate my credit card company.
Yeah: you know it's bad when I come on here to rant about money. Holy shit.
The whole point of a credit card is so that it goes to bat for you.
Mine was forced upon me by the terrible financial system, and anytime I've ever had an issue with a purchase, the credit card has always put the fault on me, the customer.
Wow.
And MasterCard has the gall to charge merchants up the ass for a broken service. I know this and I've never used their seller services.
Yeah; that's why I'm taking my time with both reinstalling my random button, hotlinking things on my blog, and putting up a "buy me a gram of weed" button that you can donate Satoshis at.
Yeah, because the canadian government is literally steering me toward the black market because they think they can manage my money better than I can.
They're not wrong: they just don't realize that I should not be on the sunshine list just because I actually give a damn about CAD and Bitcoin and basically no other currency (got burned by the USD because of Norbert's; got burned by the Swiss franc because they hold my data hostage: and I obviously got burned by the Japanese Yen because, well, apparently, a dollar CAD per Yu-Gi-Oh! card is just too much store credit, apparently).
Oh, and FUCK Nintendo. Holy shit. What a bunch of scumbags. I was promised no more than 10 DLC characters in SSBU, and what I got instead was more than I bargained for, and a terrible porn-filled eshop.
Well, at least there is no Genshin Impact to be be found anywhere on my OG Nintendo Switch. No, instead it's a graveyard of Dark Patterns that Nintendo of America failed to prevent.

In other news, I don't feel as smart as yesterday: still not sure if I have a reason to study at any given university of not...
