  • I wanted to get premium and while i was considering it they had 2 price increases.

    No thank you, bye.

    I am of the mindset: i want value out of my money, subscriptions that let you own nothing immediately falls out of my requirements so i need it to be a price i’m willing to pay. Which is a low price.

    I cancelled spotify the moment they added €1 to the cost, all it gave me was a play button and a bunch of bullshit i don’t care for like a year in review. Dude, i was there…listening to that music, i already know what i played so i don’t need you to tell me.

    But that’s just me and i’m the odd one out it seems.

    I compare spotify like this; i bought a cd from the discount bin for €5 and got to play that for a whole life and i’d be happy if it was all i had. Spotify opens up do much music to you which is really cool BUT i used to buy a single album a year and copy that to a new cd/mp3 player to add it to the previous boughr cd’s. So my cost went from €5/€20 a year to €11 a month while i own nothing. In my head that’s automatically a waste of €112 euro’s that are spent with no real returning value.

    The biggest value most subscription services offer is: they’ll stop literally pestering you with ads.

















  • Last time (and first) i went to therapy i was low on money and because of our insurance i “only”(be warned, veru european amounts ahead) had to pay my “own risk” clause which sat at €385. But i REALLY needed some form of help during that time, i had some job interviews and i was physically unable to drag myself to them.

    I got about halfway and just break down completely, so i was desperate and literally stuck in life from my point of view.

    So i went to therapy with my last money and ended getting 3 sessions and a “we can’t help you there is nothing wrong here’s the bill tho”.

    I still don’t know how i managed to get out of there, but i can still feel it pulling in the background…this constant dragging brake.

    I don’t think psychadelics can get me out of this, i tried weed once and man did i have a bad time. I’ve always had this: “i wouldn’t mind not existing/suicide would be great right about now” kind of brain and the weed didn’t help the worse part of that battle.




  • I worked at Albert Heijn in my teens and they stopped selling coca cola as they couldn’t agree on a price.

    Cola wanted to increase the consumer price to €1,35 for 1.5 liter bottles.

    It took quite some time before the store had coca cola in stock.

    I bought a bottle a couple weeks ago as we had some friends over and i laughed so hard out of misery. That same fucking bottle now costs €2,49 at Albert Heijn.

    Store brand is 89 cents, which is what we used to pay for original cola .5 liter bottles.

    Guys, it’s just water with a bit of flavouring in it. We should all just collectively stop buying these famous brands and watch them burn. Lol
