It’s similar to women who can’t leave their violent companion: they want to believe in something that does not exist, and will stretch their perception of reality to avoid admitting they’re wrong.

This analysis really fucking sucks lmao. Abuse also includes controlling access to structures of dependency (housing, food, money, social webs, children), so a lot of time in the immediate term and often long term it is a MUCH better value proposition to stay with abusers in the hope that they change.

Idk this is so victim blamey and misunderstanding.

Most people don't have time to fritter on new tech, alt clients, etc. Honestly they're not stupid and I resent the implication--Reddit's just predatory. If we want an alternative to flourish, we gotta stop treating it like its a "smart people club" and being elitist about it

yay!!!

the most sustainable smartphone is the one that you already have

:0.......... okay i can def try that, yea!!!

I agree about the soft language they use and plastics are a BROAD category of materials.... but yeah, I like to be cautious around exposing them to heat and using them for long term liquid storage.

i super agree, french press or moka is my target, i just miss the flavor the pressure creates. i'll figure it out one day!

i think the tritan plastic they're using in the new models will be interesting, def seems less porous and likely to hang onto bad flavors x_x

not the best article out there but here's one that covers it: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020/feb/18/are-plastic-containers-safe-to-use-food-experts

it's strong enough to, but i don't trust plastic not to leach out nasties into my coffee in those conditions, plus it seems to retain grossness :(

omg. you just made my whole week 🥰😭

i love mine but i want to ditch pressure+heat in plastic. wondering if moka is the way to go, but really just wish they made aeropress with other materials!
