Today I'm donating my streaming sticks. I got a ONN brand 2k one I bought for 15 and I got an Amazon Firestick 4K I got for $3 from a thrift store because they didn't know what it was.

And I love the concept of stream sticks, I really do. Too fucking bad that corporate interests got in the way and now everything has to have a bundle of ads at every damn turn. Not even some of the things I'm subscribed to is free from ads because this is the future apparently, we're here.

Shame because I don't want to let these go and even if I were to subscribe to Netflix's ad-free subscription, that's only one source. Why do that when I can just grab a long HDMI cable, plug it into my desktop and to my TV and I can watch everything that's there, without ads because of the extensions I use to block ads.

              Rombas. I had a knock off, so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but it was just easier with a regular vacuum, and faster. I also feel like a normal vacuum, currently, does a better job
Streaming services. I got lazy, but them breaking apart everything into services has gotten me back to basic. Laptop and an HDMI I cord, I can handle the rest. 🏴‍☠️
Working. However, I recently changed departments, so that will keep me quiet for awhile.
