    Kill Google, kill Apple, kill Meta, kill Amazon. I’m not sure whether killing Apple is necessary - despite their problems, they at least have an honest business model (of profiting off a cult). I think yes, split them too.

        Decided then.

        And that round building of theirs should be demolished, only Apple fans can think it looks futuristic.

            I guess as a homeless shelter it’d be fine. There’s some value in all the glassy parts too - hydroponics would combine well aesthetically with a shelter.

            However, the space inside it should be treated carefully, or it can turn into something similar to Soviet micro-districts in the criminal sense.

            Again, maybe making it some kind of a huge pond and releasing fish there is a good idea? I dunno.

                I would have a novel or two finished by now, if not for various Ds and Ses.

                It usually (in attempts from my teens) goes like the first couple of paragraphs describing nature, some for the later parts of the book describing various locations and situations, and then I find myself unable to describe people as they behave. That would be my ASD chiming in, I guess, impaired theory of mind and all that. My characters are pretentious, awkward and flat. Sometimes I’d figure out the mood to write from their POV, and then it would seem to feel better. But all that doesn’t matter cause ADHD.

      I’m not going to defend Apple against being broken up, but those other companies are on a whole different level when it comes to invasion of privacy.
