I think of this quote whenever internet tough guys are like “if someone breaks into my house I’m going to shoot them dead!!”
In the (very good) video game pillars of eternity 2, an imp comes to tell you his wizard wants you to see him. If you respond with “I’ll go if I have time” the imp replies “pfth. Who has time? You have to make time”. Now I think about this a lot.
I’ve also learned that sometimes when people say they don’t have time they actually mean they don’t want to, but they think a small lie is more polite. Personally if I invite you to something I’d rather you tell me you’re not interested so I know not to invite you in the future. But some people are cripplingly conflict avoidant.

I buy a new phone when my current one breaks. So like every five years.
Lots of people are bad with money or don’t prioritize the same things I do. I try not to worry about this. I worry about other unimportant shit like why do people roll for stats in DND 5e.
Yes. Unfortunately each advertiser thinks they can make a little more money if they go a little farther.
It’s like the tragedy of the commons (which might have an ahistorical root but nevermind that) where a bunch of people acting in “rational self interest” ruin the thing for everyone.
