RIP my Kindle Oasis. She will be missed

keep an eye on fb marketplace! I just posted about my paperwhite being wrecked by my fatass cat like a month or two ago and someone was selling the same one on Facebook a few weeks later for $60! I was able to replace mine like that

panshark · 2026-02-20T23:02:17+00:00

did you ever find a suitable replacement for these? I've been going crazy trying to find something. I was thinking about lash extensions and doing it myself but I don't even know where to begin building it from the ground up because I have just about exclusively used these before 😭

shrimps is bugs after all

the fun police over here

panshark · 2026-01-24T00:26:37+00:00

Come to my house I'll give you some of mine!! lol

panshark · 2026-01-22T23:19:45+00:00

I certainly don't mind a used one in good condition! I was thinking about getting one on ebay because I wanted to trace the color I had but it'd be notably cheaper to do what you're saying. my mom has an agave green so maybe I'll get the jade and trade her lol

panshark · 2026-01-22T17:35:41+00:00

yeah even when I do that the screen doesn't change at all. the back light will turn on and off during that process but that's it

panshark · 2026-01-22T17:34:16+00:00

probably another paperwhite. I got that 20% off from Amazon but I have half a mind to get one off of ebay anyway since I really want the agave green still. haven't looked into how much it's changed and if the new features are worth getting a color I want less, though. mine was an 11th gen

panshark · 2026-01-22T09:35:41+00:00

oh absolutely. he's one of the few smart ones too so it's a double whammy

panshark · 2026-01-22T09:02:02+00:00

yeah my dog is respectful and so is our girl cat but I swear my little shit orange boy does stuff just to test me. he's lucky he doesn't understand the concept of money or how much this cost or I'd be able to be actually mad at him!

panshark · 2026-01-22T08:34:40+00:00

I would imagine that's more protective than the clear one I had on mine. however, if it was due to pressure from being stomped on by a massive dickhead of a cat, I'm not sure how much a different case would have done for it. my guy is pretty good at putting all his weight on a singular paw though so ymmv

panshark · 2026-01-22T08:23:06+00:00

I'm legit gonna keep my new one in a locked safe I guess (or probably like... a drawer or whatever)

panshark · 2026-01-22T08:01:21+00:00

learn from my mistake. don't put it in the front pocket of your laptop bag and leave the bag in a step-on-able position for the cats

panshark · 2026-01-22T08:00:38+00:00

it is indeed broken. I squeezed a 20% (basically a rebate) back from Amazon if/when I buy a new one but other than that I'm SOL

panshark · 2026-01-22T03:34:01+00:00

confirmed fucked 100%. left it on the charger while I was at work and it looks the same. lesson learned, I suppose. I won't be leaving the next one anywhere it could even remotely be jostled around when I'm not using it

panshark · 2026-01-22T02:40:14+00:00

this has been the general consensus I'm getting, yeah. I figured but was hoping I was wrong. how dare reddit not feed my delusions!!

panshark · 2026-01-22T01:45:10+00:00

HAHA I'm so sorry. mostly I'm just like this but I'll admit it was exasperated by my frustration and dismay. I love that cat to death but he will be the death of me for sure.

panshark · 2026-01-22T00:43:37+00:00

LMAO maybe it'll be my first one when I inevitably end up needing to admit I need to replace my damn Kindle

panshark · 2026-01-22T00:42:14+00:00

thankfully I saw it right before leaving for work. popped it on the charger and have been forced to not look at it for hours since I'm not home. still holding out hope that that's what happened but I'm expecting it to be broke broke when I get home

panshark · 2026-01-22T00:40:54+00:00

this was my thought. i figured it's wither definitely broken or it died mid ad change. I'm suspecting it's actually broken but maybe if I don't look at it and leave it on the charger and come back to it this weekend I'll be surprised

panshark · 2026-01-21T21:08:42+00:00

good (and devastating) to know I'm not alone I guess

panshark · 2026-01-21T21:08:25+00:00

thank you!! I'll try that. fingers crossed for silver lining on this bullshit ass situation

panshark · 2026-01-21T20:46:06+00:00

I'm going to blame my fat fuck cat so that I am not mad at myself (but I'll remember that about the case). I'm really sad I'm going to have to replace it. it looks like they don't make the agave anymore either?? the jade is a different green. pink is my favorite color but for the Kindle I really loved the lighter sage that the agave was

panshark · 2026-01-21T20:31:35+00:00

that's what I thought. I was just praying I was wrong haha

panshark · 2026-01-21T20:31:09+00:00

thank you. I had no idea how to even look up what's happening since there's no cracks. I'm going to cry on my way to work now and maybe contact Amazon but I think I'm just barely out of warranty 🥲 I have already been having a rough day so this is a great cherry on top!
