Removing headphone jacks from smartphones & tablets, and removing USB and HDMI ports from laptops, all while increasing prices, is the worst trend in technology...

Some of these companies don't even include a charger anymore.

It's crazy what they're able to get away with. 😂
I was just looking at new laptops today and was amazed by both the sky high prices and the inversely correlated lack of basic functionality.

How am I going to pay £1k+ for a laptop with zero USB ports?

"YoU caN BuY aN aDaPtor!"

You shouldn't need to. Unreal. 🤣
I feel like a top tech company could corner a market by simply NOT constantly getting rid of basic useful features that are used and appreciated by millions of customers. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Not all change is progress.
I can't even just cuss out Apple for this.

They started this stupid trend, but many manufacturers have followed like sheep.
I didn't even mention the removal or ethernet ports and DVD drives from laptops, and the removal of expandable storage in smartphones.

The more time goes on, the less features you get.

Some laptops don't even have 3.5mm ports anymore for headphones, mics, and speakers.
Within 5 years, they might not include the screen anymore...

Gotta pay extra for that. And buy an adaptor. 😂

It was only last month that I reached 600k on Twitter and now, we are at 650k.

Barring any major shenanigans, 1 million this year is on the cards.

I reached 20k in February 2019, after 10 years.

Growth is NOT linear. Whatever you're working on, keep pushing!
It can take 10+ years for people to pay attention to what you're doing in any significant way. Creative or business.

Don't assume not achieving 'success' quickly means you should quit.

Take true feedback on board, but ignore naysayers and haters. They don't matter.
I put out my first music project in 2006.

I left my corporate job in 2011 to become a full time musician and creative entrepreneur.

98% of you discovered me after 2018...

That's A LOT of years flying under the radar (and barely breaking even)

Keep hustling!

The amount of new information that's been learned about the C19 💉 confirms that people who held off because they wanted more info and longer term data were justified in their rationale. Not 'anti-science' nor 'selfish' nor 'stupid'.

Look at how much has changed in just 1 year.
This time last year, the mainstream belief was that it would only be 1-2 injections, they would stop you from getting sick, stop you from transmitting the virus, and effectively end the 'pandemic'.

All 4 have been proven to be objectively false in under 12 months. More to come.
Given the speed and expediency with which these shots were rolled out, it was obvious to any calm, independent thinking person that there were a lot of unknown variables.

It's astonishing how aggressive people were and still are against those who point this out. It's weird. 🤷🏿‍♂️

It's wild watching white liberals on Twitter doing mental gymnastics to explain why millions of Black Americans should be banned from restaurants.

The fact they have been able to pose as 'allies' for decades is some form of witchcraft.
"Going to a restaurant is not a right! Private business!"

Holy crap. Listen to yourselves... And take that 'BLM' hashtag out of your bio. 😂
'White Liberal Allies' 🤣

A small sample.

I haven't seen many people make this point, but a core reason why 'the left' in the West has become increasingly unhinged over the past decade is that as society becomes more egalitarian, fair, and non-discriminatory, their natural role and purpose becomes less clear and obvious.
This has really been the first time period in history where there isn't CLEARLY an entire demographic that is being mistreated by the law and society as a whole.

The major battles have been won but people don't know where to put their energy. So they start promoting dumb stuff.
In fact, people have overcorrected so hard they have created an entire new set of problems. And have created MORE discrimination and division as a result. 🙈

We live in the age of overcorrection and directionless, purposeless humans.

When I talk to my friends and followers in Canada and Australia, I can sense how demoralised they are... It's in every word.

What's crazy is most don't realise just how much their spirits have been crushed over 2 years.

Stay strong. I know it sucks. Keep fighting! You'll win.
If you haven't left your country for 2 years, you may not fully understand just how badly your environment is affecting your psyche.

Most of the world is not experiencing the same thing.

The narrative is crumbling everywhere... The totalitarianism is a mask for desperation.
I see and hear a lot of people saying 'It's the same everywhere!' and 'There is nowhere else to go'.

This is nonsense...

You're in one of the worst places atm (sorry) but it will get better.

Freedom is yours for the taking. Take care of yourself mentally and physically.

The Covid-1984 narrative is crumbling worldwide.

But some of you have gotten SO used to taking L's that you can't even recognise a W anymore.

NOW is the time to reclaim your freedoms completely.

Keep speaking out. Keep pushing for liberty. We are almost there.
