    Waiting on my 12-yo to experience menarche. Gods. Mom sent her with pads the last two summers, nada.

    Not looking forward to the talks we’ll have, but at least her mom and I are on the same page, educated her. LOL, she’s dying to start, excited.

    Yeah hon, it’s a life changer, but not so great.

    I’m convinced that they make cell phones slippery on purpose. They either get to sell more accessories like cases, or they get to sell you another phone when you inevitably drop and break it.

      Taking into account manufacturers somehow decided that glass, a very fragile material ESPECIALLY when thin, should be the ✨premium✨ material and all decent phones NEED to be wrapped in it…

      Maybe there’s some truth to that lmao

      And they make them so thin you need a case to actually hold it, also at the cost of battery size and other useful features.

        I love that battery technology is shrinking but I don’t want paper thin cell phones. Just keep it the same size and give me a better battery life
