I had a discussion with a friend recently and during that discussion, one comment was “Fitted sheets are really both the best and the worst”, of course referencing them as awesome when put on a mattress and the worst when you’re trying to fold them.
What else do we have that would qualify for being awesome, but also the worst in a different context?
Phones.
Banking apps, podcasts, gps navigation, chatting to friends, listening to music are all awesome.
But then getting stuck doomscrolling and constantly checking my phone trying to eke out a little more stimulation when literally anything else would be a more productive way to spend my day - that part sucks ass.
Consider the day the guy in charge of domestic espionage was told everyone will willingly carry a wire + camera + gps always and make it their top priority taking care of said device while also paying for it and recording everything consensually.
I love a good doomscroll before work.
I’m doomscrolling right now
