Feeling super low energy lately and trying not to beat myself up about it. I’m grateful for this transition into fall. 🍁🍂

Why does the volume on podcasts vary soooo widely. Some podcasts are so fucking quiet you have to turn your device volume to high and you still can’t hear shit. Then you go to the next podcast and it’s actually audible so then you go back to half volume.

I hate how vigilant the general public has to be with consuming news and media to the point where everything like this has to be double and triple fact-checked before you can believe it at face value.
Deranged article. They're criticizing Harris for being "light on detail" in her economic plans but she hasn't even announced the plans yet, the whole story is just based on anonymous quotes from aides.

Harris Is Set to Lay Out an Economic Message Light on Detail
The vice president is expected to recalibrate President Biden’s policy themes in a bid to turn the Democratic economic agenda into an asset.

Remember: here's the breaking news handbook. All of these are good rules to stand by at the moment.
![In the immediate aftermath, news outlets will get it wrong.
Don't trust anonymous sources.
Don't trust stories that cite another news outlet as the source of the information.
There's almost never a second shooter.
Pay attention to the language the media uses.
"We are getting reports"... could mean anything.
"We are seeking confirmation"... means they don’t have it.
"[News outlet] has learned"... means it has a scoop or is going out on limb.
Look for news outlets close to the incident.
Compare multiple sources.
Big news brings out the fakers. And photoshoppers.
Beware reflexive retweeting. Some of this is on you.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vdabazxnghujbebpi2ektqgi/bafkreihybvnila33plk2j24yealu6fq6wezii2ujhgyjgpr3awsty6pjtm@jpeg)

I know how life changing losing a family member can be, but I can’t help but feel a little envious that all of my friends are using their inheritances from family members passing away and combining it with their partners incomes to buy card, houses, vacations, etc.

I love my job very much but it is extremely unnecessary for me to come in-person most office days and the 2 hour commute (there and back) kills my soul lol. There are literally 2/20 people in the office because most of the veteran staff just stay home whenever they want 😫

My body has been having a hard time transitioning from server/restaurant life to the schedule of early mornings of 8 hour Mon-Fri shifts 😩 you only have like 4 hours free every evening after showering and making food. And I have to go to bed at like 10pm to get 8 hours of sleep. I feel 80 yrs old!!

I am convinced that the worst thing about the internet is that it allowed people who historically would have been considered the worst person in town and totally ostracized for their perpetual bad vibes and opinions to find out that they have thousands of global allies and after that it was so over.

I need everyone to send me television recommendations! I’m a big fan of 90’s/early 2000’s tv but I will also accept good new stuff!
I have already watched a lot of the classic CW/WB shows, I watch a lot of HBO, and have seen a lot of the stuff popular on Netflix.

I was starting to think I would never crawl out of the burnout pit that final exams and life in general buried me in, but today I finally felt like a shadow of a non-exhausted human.

This heavy rain today has allowed me to replenish my rainwater collection 🤩I’m sad it’s taken me so long to get into collecting water because it’s quite possible I could have been watering most of my outdoor garden in the summertime for at least a month on rainwater alone if I had proper storage.

This is very unlike me because I love the summertime, but I feel ready to fast forward to Halloween and the holidays again 😭 I think it’s the decorations I miss.

Stressed because my grandmother isn’t doing well and I can’t tell if it’s generally what happens when people get older or if she’s on a legitimate physical downward spiral 😢 all I know is it’s hard to recover from small injuries when you’re in ur 70’s and it sucks.

The words “immediate ceasefire” will get the headlines but you can’t really understand the cautious way she did this without seeing the video. Harris pauses for applause after “immediate ceasefire” and then finishes: “…for at least the next six weeks, which is what’s currently on the table.”

Losing Edie in Season 5 of Desperate Housewives actually breaks my heart 😭 Her character has such a great sendoff though and it couldn’t have been done better. 📺 🍎
