:: warm words from a hot head ::
The word ‘despite’ is bullshit. Because spite is even a consideration. If you take action despite something, it means you think spite is deserved but you’re not passing it along so you’re a better person than those who do act on their spite.
The problem is : you still have spite, asshole.
So c’mon, enough with this ‘despite’ business.

I found myself watching a YouTube video that I didn’t really want to watch and I clicked away from it. But because I’d watched the first few seconds of it, the recommendations that then appeared on my YouTube home page contained content similar to the video that I didn’t want to continue watching.
While this bit of automated programming functions if I’m enjoying the content, it did not today.
Watch out!
