7/20/2026 It's funny in a tragic way that I'm addicted to media that bores or even upsets me. It's akin to me enjoying a sip of coffee despite IBS looming over my shoulder. Both causes me discomfort and a false sense of urgency. TMI?
7/15/2026 Oxygen bleach (Oxyclean) works very well to get coffee and tea stains out of mugs! Just let it soak for a bit in warm water with a small amount of powder.
7/13/2026 In all aspects, the indie web is still the internet. Interpret that as you will.
7/09/2026 Yum, I love drinking my vegan protein powder so I can gain mass! (it's full of lead)
7/03/2026 You can really be addicted to misery.What actionable insights have you really picked up from reading news articles lately? If they were really important for your daily life, someone would likely tell you anyways. People really started caring about news more in 2014-2016, especially in the running up to America's primaries. It was peak culture war bs on both sides, and America has never fully recovered from that. Later on, Covid would come and exacerbate this obsession with consuming the latest upsetting story. Shifting over to more local news (rather than American or international) in response to this realization did little to put me at ease. I think back before my brain had wrinkles, where news was mainly the talking heads in the background as a parent watched TV. All that mattered was my own little world and my actual interests. I hope to bring my focus back to that more innocent time, and perhaps rediscover some things about myself.
6/25/2026 Reddit is basically a retirement community for elder millennials to complain about traffic and laugh at GIFs and antiquated memes (which were never funny, even back then). It's essentially Facebook for millenials. If you're nostalgic about anything, their presence will sour your memories. If you like joy, do yourself a favour and never visit that entire website. This isn't a reaction to any one post or sub btw, I just really want to kick the habit of torturing myself with that boring schlock.
