It's not even hard to carry them anymore, it's not like we even have to deal with wires. A 10 minute bus ride it's still just easier to pull out my earbuds and pop them in

What a bunch of misanthropes. If you want silence wear earplugs.

I like to live in the world with people and people loooove music. And they love their family going on with gossip. And animal videos. And cartoons and soap operas. And people talking about the love of god. They love watching baseball. Etc.

The one time I can ever recall being annoyed was some guy watching video about covid conspiracies. I thought about arguing with him but I just got up and moved to another part of the train stop.

People's speakers aren't that good, you can easily escape the sound by moving if it is so bothersome. Or, learn to enjoy the company of people who differ from you rather than pretending there is some virtue in being a narrow minded jerk. Life is better.

I love music. That doesn't mean I'm going to love the music you're listening to. Or want to hear it right then even if I do.

Am I going to want to hear someone playing upbeat ska after I just found out my mother died? No, I'm not.

Basic courtesy for others goes a long way.

Everybody has different ears and their brains process sound differently. What might not seem very bad and chill to you can be extremely disturbing to somebody else and vice versa. It's no one's fault, life just sucks sometimes. Be considerate within reason.
