It’s mind-blowing how people think that they’re special ones better than everybody else, and that there aren’t a million situations beyond medical debt where a person could find themselves with a debt they can’t handle other than being an irresponsible deadbeat.

The problem with 3D touch is that it created a whole world of essentially secret interface elements. Rather than actually seeing buttons or other elements that perform specific tasks, and perhaps augmenting these with a variation on a particular behavior (such as a long press), the combination of presses, swipes,…

Not that it’s great that they did it, but both Debra Jo and Kurtwood’s letters seemed to be in a predefined form (presumably provided by Masterson’s lawyers), and pretty luke-warm support (presumably out of some sort of sense of obligation from 20+ years of friendship).

Wouldn’t that be “up on the heads”?

You ask them if they buy them or roll their own...
