‘Enshittification’ is coming for absolutely everything::The term describes the slow decay of online platforms such as Facebook. But what if we’ve entered the ‘enshittocene’?

That's 2 weeks worth of groceries.

I would be lucky to get a week off of that. If all I ate was instant ramen and stovetop pasta for every single meal, I might be able to stretch it to two weeks.

Absolutely no way an online news outlet is providing even close to a quarter of that $75 in value.

The outlet is called Financial Times, and—if you think about it—they certainly do an excellent job in helping individuals manage their finances correctly. After seeing a $75 charge on my bank statement from a news outlet, I would never forget to cancel another promotional subscription again.

You can get a lot of rice and beans for 75 dollars. Definitely sounds like a rough couple weeks tho
