If the artists can live out their bloody fantasies in the safety of an opera house, they might not take over the country and commit genocide, again.

People also order on temu. Amazon is oftentimes the same but with one day delivery. And Amazon does not just sell trash, since you can still get almost anything. An iPhone from Amazon is the same as an iPhone directly from Apple or from some smaller shop. And it might be cheaper, additional to the quick delivery. Amazon can still be incredibly convenient. If I know I need something important tomorrow and there’s no local store, Amazon it is. But of course, if I just want a thing without hurry, there are usually some better/cheaper options.

Also, you sound like a nightmare customer. Do you also break stuff in small privately owned shops or do you at least stick to big corporate stores?
