Piracy, just fucktons of piracy.
Living in the Global South, if I didn't pirate as much stuff as I do, I don't really know if I'd even be able to speak English. I've been pirating games, books and movies for most of my life. A single Playstation game costs about 25% of the monthly minimum wage where I live.
One could even say that "as far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a pirate" ayy
Being a lazy shit on company time and getting paid for it.
the best little resistance
everytime i see fashy bullshit online i usually dont even engage with it mentally and just say some shit to myself like "damn you need to be shot dude". very good for mental health as its a very easy way to just not interact with the stuff even on a basic level.
(dear federal agents,
just to clarify, this is not an actual threat to any specific person, this is just something i think to myself every so often.

I pirate almost all of the media I consume, and I have since I was a teenager.
I was driving in front of a guy who's turn signal was out. A cop spotted him and pulled out from a driveway a few cars back. I changed lanes, let the dude pass, then got behind him and helped him get lost in traffic before the cop could catch up.
