New Disney Movie

I call it realistic. If you think everything is going to work out, you’re delusional, man. But I hope you prove me wrong some day, I really do.

Social Security is set to run out in the 2030s, and I fully expect the stock market to crash, effectively wiping out my 401k. As others have mentioned, resources like water will start to become scarce, inciting instability.

I live in MA. My work and personal cell phones were screeching alerts every hour until it got restored. Kinda scary that it can go down like that.

I’m a late gen-Xer (born in '80, so I’m more of a “Xennial”). I have a stable job, pension, matching 401k, no kids, no debt (paid off my car and student loans), make 6 figures, and I am STILL convinced that I will never be able to retire. I feel horrible for all those who are in a worse financial situation than me, but we are all really fucked in the next 20 years.

Akame ga Kill. Totally not what I was expecting.

Editing to add: STAY AWAY FROM BEASTARS.

This song will now be stuck in my head for the rest of the day. I’m not complaining.

Yeah I see this person everywhere

My BaBy Is 72 MoNtHs!1!!

In my younger years I passed out in public 3 separate times, once it was just me and my mom outside a bank, which wasn’t too bad, but the second time I was at an all-school assembly, and the third time I was at an Easter Sunday church service, and every time it was embarrassing as fuck.

I’m horrific at math, but even I know this shit. I do feel for her though. When you suck at math, even if the answer is easy and you have it right, you constantly second guess yourself because getting the right answer feels too easy, so surely I’m wrong, right? Because it’s math and I’m always wrong.

I’m addicted to Polar seltzer if that counts

I got called to take a Gallop Poll once. I was totally surprised and probably sounded like an idiot to the person on the phone because I kept saying shit like “I can’t believe you actually called me, I always hear about these but I don’t know anyone who’s ever actually taken one,” and I thought it was so cool. This was in 2014, so quite a while ago, so my memory of the questions is vague.

Yes! I wish more men felt comfortable wearing jewelry. I like the addition of jewelry to any body!

I actually can’t stand tea, like TEA tea, but I do like herbal teas. I like the idea of using the lapsang souchong as potpourri, though! I’ll try that.

I love the smell of wood burning/camp fire smell. There’s something I find comforting about it. I’ve yet to find a candle that exactly replicates the smell, but if I ever do, I’m buying 50.

This is gonna sound outdated as hell, but I handwrite one major plot point or scenes on an index card and then put them in the order I want the outline to proceed in. I change the order of the cards if I feel like it or if a scene went some different direction than I originally intended while I was writing it. I only do this while writing fiction.

I do have Bluetooth keyboard for my current phone, but it’s definitely not the same, plus it’s just another thing to lug around

Not gonna lie, I do miss phones with tactile keyboard buttons. My last dumb phone had a mini qwerty keyboard and I loved that thing.
