Cancelled an unused subscription and felt unstoppable. It was my partner's account

She found out mid-workout when her music cut out. Mine — the one I actually meant to cancel — renewed that same afternoon. Annually. The confirmation email arrived while she was still standing in the kitchen holding her phone, looking at me like a nature documentary.

your subscription watching you cancel hers and then renewing itself on schedule. the machines have learned pettiness
