I googled something pretty niche today, and the AI summary which I have a habit of reading quoted ME from a Reddit post I made on my throwaway account recently. It was like, "One Reddit user even said ____ and ____" but I could tell it was about me because of how specific and weird it was. Bizarre.

Really don't know why I keep posting on here. It's pretty much an online journal at this point. I expect no response to anything. An abyss.

One of my pet theories that I have not yet researched is that a high percentage of ADHD people are drawn to yoga and similar movement practices, Or maybe just crazy people in general but I do think that it can be a from of relief for the non-stop ADHD brain. (I'm both ADHD and generally crazy)

I got lost today (a common occurrence) and ended up having to walk along a main road back to my car. On the verge, I found a series of abandoned pages from a photo album. How and why did they end up here, and what would the album's owner have made of this odd destiny 43 years ago? So many questions.

Ever since Libby did me dirty and deleted all my tags and saves I don't know who to trust with my information hoarding. I put everything into Google apps but they recently started deleting everything from the servers if you don't use your google workspace account for 6-months which evicerates trust

Ponder of the day, whose idea was it for porn women to contort their eyebrows into the confused face and how has the widespread availability and use of botox affected this

Look I'm just as guilty of making assumptions and judgments about randoms as the next guy but I find it disheartening when people assume others' actions are performative and it makes me think the assumer is projecting and that they are actuallly the performative one in some way or another

This checks for me. One thing I hated about Orange Theory Fitness was the brief period of time before class started when we all were wearing our heart rate monitors and the coach would give a motivational speech/intro and my heart rate would already be blasting orange on the screen in a sea of green
The surprising link between your inner voice and your heart rate
The surprising link between your inner voice and your heart rate
A new study reveals a direct link between your inner voice and your body. Researchers found that silently talking to yourself in an emotional way—whether positive or negative—is enough to cause a measurable increase in your heart rate.

About 20 years ago when I started hunting/collecting vintage & antiques I found an old pin that said KILL A COMMIE FOR CHRIST. I was amazed that somebody wore this thing, authentically. It seemed so far away. Ancient history. And now, here I am two decades later seeing it in the flesh. It's surreal.

The best part about closed caption (besides understanding what they're saying) is that it shows the name of the artist and title of the song as soon as it starts playing so I don't have to obsess on that. Also shoutout to Netflix for their beautiful captioning, really setting the standard over there
