I’ve tried to avoid piracy. I have. I don’t have much money, but I do like for people in the entertainment industry to have jobs. I’m not talking about the celebrities. I mean the people like you and I that make movies and tv shows function.

But I’m fed up. I have all these streaming services but there is rarely anything I want to watch. I’ve begun watching old movies I haven’t seen in 10-20 years and that’s been good. Except when I want to watch “Snatch”, I have to pay $3.99. I don’t think so.

Plus, I’m so sick of advertising. I think it’s having a real negative effect on my mental health. I even saw a reel on Facebook that wrestling now has advertisements on the ring mat. I haven’t watched wrestling in 10 years or so but I saw a clip from Wrestlemania this year and there was advertisements on the wrestling mat. That is insane.

I’ve tried to avoid piracy. But, I think it’s time to pull out utorrent and pirate everything. That sucks. But, I’m not gonna pay $3.99 to watch Snatch and I’m not going to keep letting companies advertise to me.

Thanks for reading. I just needed to type this somewhere besides the notepad in my phone.
