Laptops are always so much more Fucked than phones in my experience. A laptop is like a beautiful horse that wants nothing more than to break all of its legs. A decently solid android phone will act normal.
A laptop is a living creature. It has weight to it. A laptop breathes and produces body heat. And it wants to die badly. Mobile phones are not sentient like that & that’s why they don’t experience mental illness. A phone problem is like “out of storage :(” or “charging port broke”. Laptops will cough weakly as they fade in and out of consciousness.
You will hold a laptop in your arms and it’s like “I can’t feel my legs”. And you tell it girl you never had any.

    If I were to guess

    "A desktop computer is like an elephant. Goes forever, respectable, venerated. All have their own personalities and we mourn them when they go.

    Some are weird lean elephants, almost like horses, as they also want to go fast and explode.

    But most people have their elephant they will only replace when it finally slowly lays down to rest. And never get up again. "
