The world has become the place it is both thanks to the advancement of technology and medicines, and because of tragedies and disasters. While we enjoy so many modern convivences that make life easier and keep us entertained, there are definitely some things we could do without.

1. Reality TV - Often faked and scripted, it glamorizes the worst kinds of behavior and the general public eats it up.
2. Companies taking 3-5 days to put money back into my account even though you took it instantly.
3. Unpaid overtime - companies just expecting you to go the extra mile, all the time, with no compensation.
4. Celebrity worship.
5. Having to call to cancel a subscription you signed up for online.
6. Convenience fees being applied when you pay a bill online.
7. Low quality CCTV and security cameras. Seriously, it's 2021.
8. Delivery Fees that the company keeps - The drivers use their own cars and pay for their own gas, and they sure as hell aren't getting any of that $5.
9. 40+ hour work weeks - The technological improvements should have made it so we could have a more leisurely society where we could dedicate less of our lives to pointless work, not so they could increase profits indefinitely for the business owners while we spend all our waking hours on labor that doesn’t even need doing at this point.
10. Any product that you pay for, and then have to pay a subscription to use.
11. Social media "Influencers". Seriously, who's bought a product just because some celebrity did / peddles it?
12. Shark fin soup - Tens of millions of sharks are killed every year for their fins that offer little nutritional value and serve no purpose outside of being a status symbol
13. Beauty pageants for children.
14. YouTube "endscreens" (or "endcards") that often block content at the end of the video you're watching.
15. "Smart" devices. No LG, i don't want to download an app to use my f*****g washing machine, i want to wash my clothes ffs
16. Single use plastics.
17. Un-skippable Ads.
18. Microtransactions - the scummiest of scummy moves.
19. Deepfake - Any time i see a video with it all I'm left feeling is fear for the future.
