    This reminds me of my old phone. I downloaded a podcast on it that had a shock-opener and for some reason was always “the next thing” the sound/music player wanted to play. So many times, by accidental touch inputs or clicking the headphone button, or the like, my phone would randomly scream: "WHO DOESN’T LIKE TO PEE IN THE SINK!?!?!”

    I would suggest getting an ortholinear keyboard. When I first switched to a Kinesis advantage, the FIRST thing I noticed was how many terrible habits I had of hitting a key with the wrong finger (even twisting my hand about, if you can believe that). Having keys in line with actual finger geometry cured that mess up real quick!

    In John Carpenter’s 1988 film They Live, Hoffman lenses are depicted as special sunglasses that allow the wearer to see hidden messages and the true nature of their environment. When the protagonist, Nada, puts on these glasses, he can perceive the concealed presence of aliens and view subliminal messages such as “OBEY” and “CONSUME,” which are otherwise invisible to the naked eye. The lenses serve as a symbolic tool for revealing the film’s critique of consumerism and social control.
