It doesn’t even quite rise to level of hate watch, just not enough there there.

I encountered it in the same insomnia type context and you may be looking for something actually more diverting, but for me, I look for that sweet spot of mildly entertaining yet super low stakes and ultimately ignorable.

This is a strange suggestion because it’s not at all a good show; Las Vegas, a show I never actually encountered in its particular 00s moment. It’s very stupid without being fully offensive. Peak jeans and going out top fashion. The most mockable celebrity cameos ever (Sugar Ray?!)

@bagofmoons.bsky.social saved my fucking shit when I had reached the sitting-on-the-floor-staring-at-nothing stage of moving and I’ll always remember it

lololol this is so funny and makes it so much better

ALSO AAAAH NOO WTFFF

“Mopey McSadsack ‘04 is trying to quit gainful employment thanks to burnout”

“I’m delighted to share that I’ve had health insurance for awhile now.”

“This year we welcomed a large rent increase into our family. Everyone’s doing … okay!”

ME AND MY FRIENDS USED TO JOKE ABOUT THAT. “Mopey McSadsack ‘04 wore pants”

YES NO THIS JUST CAME UP THE OTHER DAY IN IRL. when my partner saw the one that came in the mail. His alma mater doesn’t have such a fancy thing and he’s always found it a bit odd/fascinating? But he said (TOTALLY JOKING) “so when am I going to see you on the cover mopey?” and I was like LISTEN

AAAAAH OH NO WTF

Always have to have a cat pumpkin!! my go-to! 😁

and you find that somehow you have become that person who says things like PUT ON A SWEATSHIRT and DONT TOUCH THAT THERMOSTAT and I guess that’s the circle of life or some shit

Then you end up living with a teenager whose commitment to very tiny shorts/tank tops is unparalleled (even in the face of exemplary indoor layering!), who then, mysteriously, is cold enough to complain nonstop; only to say “no I’m not cold” while refusing to take a coat into the 38-degree dawn

Ha! No, it’s ok! It’s Relatable Content!

*cries in trauma response*

(Mostly, make it turn on and spit out blank pieces of paper.) bonus points if the house is otherwise silent and all of a sudden it noisily powers on in the next room. Paper is everywhere, just part of the floor now

I am just a humble anonymous lurker but also an arts worker (formerly in mn but not any more) and can say this is demonstrably true ime. The pissy lowkey racist comments are shitty to deal with (part of my job) but the finances don’t lie.
