Dear Amazon:
I bought 1 footstool for my one desk in my one office at work. I completed the purchase. I'm keeping the product. I don't need you to show me another 50 footstools. I'm not going to buy or need another one any time soon.
Sincerely,
Anyone who has ever made a singular purchase and is neither restocking a civilization nor going into the 3rd party resale market

Snooze = up to 15 minutes
Cat nap = 15 to 45 minutes
[True] nap = 45 to 90 minutes
Sleep/gone to bed = anything over 90 minutes
Does anyone else find it painful to pay for a membership (especially a discount or rewards one) only to find that you don't have any money left to use that membership? For example, you pay the subscription fee for Amazon Prime, but since you paid for it, you now don't have any money to order anything. I'm sure there are others. I'm not going to admit how many I have right now. It hurts, though. 😜
This morning managed to produce some of the most Monday of Monday moments in the first 3 hours of my day, before I even made it to the office.
A few weeks ago I thought, "Oh, I should maybe read [type of book] this summer." This is what I did for years when I was younger--picked a genre to try to read during the summer. Then I realized I haven't been tied to the world of academia since my daughter graduated in 2020. I am not beholden to this concept of "summer reading" any more. I have a TBR stack that I am happy to be working through and I don't really want to interject anything to interrupt my progress on the pile. I can read what I want when I want without any outside interference. I'm not going to change my reading pace simply because it's hotter, there's a little more daylight, and random kids are running around screaming everywhere at all hours with their brief moments of freedom. I am a free autonomous adult who is no longer burdened by a school-year calendar. My days don't vary for class breaks or holidays or homecoming or any other type of school-type events. My reading (nor my crafting, for that matter) doesn't have to take any cues from anything outside my own motivation. So, I don't need any "summer reading warrior lists" or "summer reading journals" or anything else like that. Since I'm not getting any external reward for how many books I race through in 2 months, nor do I need external motivation to read, I will continue on as I have for quite some time in my adult life.
Enjoy your words, everyone. If the idea of "summer reading" inspires you, then go for it. If it makes what you had going feel like a burden or chore or homework assignment that sucks some of the joy out of reading, then consider skipping it. You are your own person. No one has the right to dictate how you enjoy your leisure activities (they are welcome to make suggestions if you ask, but they cannot command).

If my body had the same energy as my brain then I would be unstoppable and possibly comfortably wealthy. Sadly, my brain runs at several hundred miles an hour, with the ability to visualize ALL the TaSkS. Meanwhile, my body has trouble walking 2-3 blocks, with very little flexibility to bend or stretch, and a very small energy tank to do even simple tasks without longer and longer periods of rest.
You know what I miss about the phone book? I miss being able to flip through the yellow pages to find a listing of, say, all the bakeries or book shops or salons, etc. in town. An Internet search now pulls up 4000 results: some 40 pages claiming to list the info but far from comprehensive, 15 sponsored results per page, a dozen reddit links, 47 Facebook pages, and at least 12 video or image links that have nothing to do with what I'm looking for. That's not counting the frustrating AI summaries that are tucked in throughout the search results. Sometimes I miss the phone book.
[Simply venting here...move along, no response or comments necessary]
So, I paid $300 in March to get my car's AC diagnosed, found out it was a busted hose that no one locally had in stock. I put that cost (and the oil/filter changes) on my card. It took me 2 months & extra payments to pay that off so I could pay for the actual repairs. Note that the part turned out to be on backorder nationwide (of course it was, it was a JEEP part ::eyeroll::). They managed to get the part & I maxed out my card with the $1000 charges. One week later, the air-conditioner is blowing hot again. We're now fully in Florida summer.
I do not have another $1300 for new repairs, nor do I have any money for heat exhaustion hospital bills. All of my cards are maxed out as I moved stuff around to pay for the initial repairs. A new car with payments is definitely out of the question until the cards that help float us get paid down.
Meanwhile, manchild Musk is about to become a trillionaire because of shady bullying surrounding the Space-X IPO and unprecedented placement on indexes. The kismet of this universe and timeline is SERIOUSLY out of whack.
[End venting, distracting myself with my paid work, which I do like & appreciate, though I know it won't pay enough to get me out of this hole for many months to come.]
::sigh:: and ::quiet cry::
OK, fellow word nerds, squirrel brain question: "different from" or "different than" as the more correct usage? I will accept "it depends," but I need an explanation to understand.
Gracias!
Sorry, I have to be THAT person. Work requirements are for SNAP recipients without dependent children who are not aged or disabled. There are no work requirements for Medicaid recipients, especially as most of them without dependent children must be aged or deemed disabled to qualify, and thus, are not expected to work. I am, of course, speaking about states without expanded Medicaid. Check your individual states for those rules.
Bottom line: SNAP (AKA food stamps) is not TANF (AKA cash assistance) is not Medicaid (which is NOT Medicare!). These are all different programs with different restrictions, though they may be processed by the same state agency. Please educate yourselves before making bold statements about these programs.

This is a sad solemn reminder that every single able-bodied person--regardless of age, wealth, education, or any other factor--is one tweak, strain, sprain, accident, oopsie, other person's distracted actions or selfish behavior, genetic code activation, etc. away from a life-altering circumstance that leads to some kind of impact to your physical and/or mental functioning.
Don't live in paranoia. There will not always be someone or something to blame directly. There will not always be a logical explanation for it. This is simply a circumstance of living. Knowing this, though, maybe be a bit more patient and understanding, and a LOT less judgemental, to those who have already experienced it, who are now functioning outside your "normal", doing the best they can with what they have.
The economy sucks. We all know it. This leads to a rise in content creators trying to tell people how to a) stretch their dollars at the grocery store and/or b) eat right (healthy, for weight loss, whatever) on a budget. Some creators focus on individual adults, some center on feeding kids, some even consider the whole household (imagine that! everyone living with you might want to eat ::eyeroll::)
I see a woeful gap in most of this content I've encountered. Apparently, everyone in their respective audiences lives in a large home with a full-size kitchen & garage.
I don't.
I have a less-than-1000 square-foot apartment with a kitchen that barely fits one person. The 1970s fridge holds very little and the freezer that's part of the fridge has maybe a 1/3 the storage space of the fridge. If you could call the shelves a pantry, then we have a smidgen more room for dry goods. That's it. I see the kitchens these creators are using. My whole kitchen would fit in their pantry. I don't have an extra walk-in or even deep body-size chest freezer. Buying bulk means I get maybe 2 things at Sam's and my kitchen is full. Not stocked, only full. We do have additional shelving in the area where our table sits. However, our building cirrently has a very serious mouse problem, so we have to be careful what we put where or we end up losing much of it to the little bastards.
So, sorry, not sorry, but your videos about grocery hauls, month-long meal prepping, and bulk cost-savings will be nothing more than mere "huh, okay, neat" for me personally because, not only am I apparently much more broke than you, but I also have almost no space to put anything, nor do I currently have the time or energy or physical stamina to do these "simple" cooking tasks you demonstrate in your videos. Your 10 minutes translates into closer to 30 for me because I live in a slide puzzle space with no more than a semi-functional oven/stove & a modest microwave with almost no counter space for working on anything. That's it. I don't have an air fryer or toaster or blender because there's simply no space to put them, so I'm not wasting the money on them.
Dear organizations everywhere,
If you set a deadline, stop pressuring people to get things done BEFORE the deadline. If it gets done sooner, great. But until the deadline has passed, how about a little faith that it will get done I time. If you wanted it done earlier, then you should have set an earlier deadline.
Such a nice feeling to make good old chocolate chip cookies for the sole purpose of making & enjoying them. No holiday or event. These are not going to work or church. I made these for me and Kiddo to enjoy because it was on the brain. And because I realized I could with no need for additional reasons. :-)
As part of my job, I read so many reports about aged and/or disabled adults who are so curious. Many of them WONDER from their homes or facilities, sometimes into heavy traffic. Today I read a report of an individual who is bed WRITTEN.

You know something I find baffling? People who use the CAPS LOCK key to capitalize a single letter. I mean, have they no experience with the Shift key?
Sometimes my brain is too random even for me. I spent most of my morning, from the moment I woke up to almost lunch at work, with random scenes from "The Menu" running through my mind. I know about ear worms. Now I apparently have scene snails?
