Me running home at light speed just to sit in silence and scroll 📱💨 Social battery = 0% 🔋😵‍💫 Doing nothing = 100% recharge 🛌✨ Who else feels this?? 👀

Been unemployed all year, having a rough one. Clips of the gang are one of the things I turn to.

A little about me so you know what I am comparing it to. I'm originally from Europe and came to the U.S. two years ago. Currently living in Kansas City for one single reason - it's cheap. Cons: Firs...

Is it AI? Is it HR? Is it unrealistic expectations? What is it, Reddit?

I feel like my brain just shuts off like it has a dead battery. And I don’t know what to do to fight it. If I can, I’ll take a nap and it feels like getting recharged. It’s nothing to do with my slee...

I’m making a playlist of songs that resonate with me and my experience with autism. I know everyone’s experiences are different, but it would be cool to get some suggestions that I could add to the li...

My husband gets annoyed at other drivers not keeping consistent speed. He thinks its weird and unusual to not use cruise control. I think most people don't use it. I wonder what the majority says here...

The refusal to learn any new skill at all is wild. “Why learn when I can atrophy my frontal lobe!!!”.

I am treading into dangerous territory here with this actually truly unpopular opinion, but I feel we are all familiar with the common sentiment trope of someone diminishing our own struggles in life ...

Every time I open social media or talk to people lately, it feels like existing normally isn't enough anymore. You can't just have a hobby, it has to be a side hustle. You can't just enjoy a movie or ...
