Hmm, I’ve never found myself in these situations, but I’ll take your word for it

I can see how people might use and also abuse it in their grieving process. These things seem like they’re part and parcel with the human love affair with trying to make the past real again in their present experience. Everyone does it, I just can't place myself in the context of doing it with texts

I know there are tons of messages of greater importance than what I have on my phone, but the idea of backing up/fretting over my texts has always seemed like a top-to-bottom waste of time and resources and I suspect it’s the same for the overwhelming majority of users.

“No subsidies...if the product is as great as its defenders always claim, it should be able to stand on its own merits”

“how much of our lives are entangled in the Facebook empire”

Me at the beginning of the article: well this is dumb, if you’re running from a monster train just don’t go near the train tracks

Yes I also don't give a shit about racing 

Thanks for all of your hard work! It always seemed like you published a lot of content over the weekend and it’s appreciated.

It looks like a brand logo I’d expect to find on cheap packaged ham
