why the hell arent mp3 players/portable music players a big thing anymore. i got a tiny little mp3 player like 2 weeks ago and i love it so much. like genuinely this thing has been fuckin PHENOMENAL my daily life is improved so much now. i listen to music whenever i want because the battery life is insane and i dont have to worry about draining my phone battery. accidentally left it playing all night once and it was still at over 3/4 charge. its smaller than a key fob. it has a little clip on the back. i can make playlists by connecting it to a computer and just. dragging and dropping songs into folders. i cannot overstate how much i love this tiny little thing it is like a friendly little creature to me
#howling#like. there are some things about it that are a little less convenient than just using spotify or whatever other music playing apps#like i have to manually load music#or the playlist thing isnt SUPER convenient#but other than that? better in literally every other way#helps that the one i got has literally every feature that i want and nothing i dont#like a functional shuffle + can make playlists + can loop specific songs + can sort by artist/album#no bluetooth. no internal speakers. no wifi connectivity. just plug in some headphones and listen to some JAMS#lol sorry ive been thinking about thsi a lot lately. love my little music guy so much its unreal

so my mom got me a google home last christmas and i never wanted one or an alexa or any type of thing that listens to you on command, etc. and tbh i never really used it. but when i moved into my current house, i put it in my kitchen thinking that i would use it to listen to music while i cook or eat or maybe the occasional podcast. i used it literally once. i had it plugged in all the time though and in order for the google home to work (in theory) both my phone and the google home need to be connected to wifi and my phone needed to have bluetooth turned on. well, i live in the country and the wifi isnt great so i always turn my wifi off on my phone and just use LTE. i also never have bluetooth on unless im specifically using something that requires bluetooth because ive noticed that it drains my battery. so, one day, i had my dog over, who lives with my dad, and i was eating a banana. i said to my dog, “do you want a piece of my banana?”, he got all excited and i gave him some banana. probably two minutes later, way after i was talking about the banana, the google home said, “a banana is a tropical fruit...” and it started saying what a banana was. keep in mind that the google home shouldnt have been working because my phone wasnt on the wifi or bluetooth, so the google home had no way to get that information fron my phone. also, i didnt even say google..in any way shape or form. i immediately was like OH MY GOD and unplugged that motherfucker and i haven’t plugged it in since. i was so freaked out and just fucking spooked because 1) the delayed timing of it was so bizarre because i said banana teo or three minutes before the demon google home even went off, 2) it wasnt even connected to my phone so how could it have even gone off!!! and 3) i didnt say “hey google” or even anything close to “google”. if you think that they’re not listening to us all the time, you’re dead wrong. i think our phones are listening too. they’re listening, watching, tracking, and probably know that i’m writing this right now and that should scare us. it’s fucking scary. nothing is private anymore and i dont really know what to make of that but needless to say i will not be plugging my demon google home anytime soon. i will probably sell it.
