The other day I mentioned that I was considering a meal subscription service. I mentioned specifically Hello Fresh, cause it was the one I had on the top of my head. Someone on my Mastodon feed came up and mentioned they were seemingly anti-union and created a lot of waste.

That's good information, for sure, and I plan to consider it. But something I'm noticing online where every choice comes with it's share of shaming. While the post I got on Hello Fresh wasn't really shaming, many of the others are, ranging from being a terrible person for making choice A or how choice B is destroying the planet.

Here's the thing: Everything is terrible. Everything is bad. Everything has secrets. Everything has issues. It's how we navigate that terribleness that matters.

I want to buy a pickup as my next vehicle. There's a lot of anger towards that depending on who you talk to. But the navigation is that I genuinely use it, not just as a daily driver, but a truck.

It's not a status symbol, it's not a gas guzzler (in fact, I'm planning the next pickup to be an EV), it's genuinely going to be my daily driver, and it's going to be put to work whenever there's work to be done. Just like when I had Cheyenne.

There will never be a perfect corporation or service. It's the navigation of the choices that you have in front of you that matter.
