      Some insurance group put up a billboard on the route I use to go to work telling us how we all suffer from insurance fraud.

      Each and every time I went past it I would try to imagine how much I would have to hate a person in order to side with the enemy against them. No saint and I never pretended to be one but I still wouldn’t do that.

      The term “attention theft” is some dystopian shit, and just probable enough to make me vomit in my mouth.

        Attention theft is an existing term, though it’s used to describe bad practices by marketers. I suppose it’s bad that the term has had to come into existence, but it is good that it exists as a way to talk about bad practices more easily.
