  • As someone who’s used Xiaomi for years and years, had a Pixel too - the only thing that it doesn’t beat western stuff with is cameras.

    Unfortunately it is definitely true that iPhones take the nicest pictures - sure, sure, show me your best Samsung or Huawei images, or the highly regarded Pixel camera software - maybe you can capture the occasional landscape better - but pound for pound none of the phones I’ve ever had have taken nicer pictures than my partners outdated iPhone. Very annoying.










  • Was that libs? I really don’t think it was. I think that talking about white women specifically started as an overly online politics thing - used by right wingers but also by chapoish online Leftists - or at least within the chapo circles there were those who found a home in using it, even if it didn’t represent the majority of users.

    I think it wasn’t completely without validity - white men get a fair share of blaming (as they should), but that specificity missed out white women - a group it’s fair to say has been very involved in liberal activist behaviours, ‘girlboss’ hustle culture, and a group that at the top is typified by Pelosi and her fangirls.

    Then the rest of the internet took it and ran, and now I would be uncomfortable using it or giving it credit, because it’s just become synonymous with general mysoginy. The dogwhistle is now audible to human ears.
