What do you mean it's already 9:30?

May 07, 2020 21:30

See, this is what happens every day. I finish work around 2 or 3 if I'm lucky (a couple of times it's been 5 or 6). Then I think, okay, I have a couple of things that I need to do this afternoon, but that should finish by 5 or 6, then I have dinner - and by 7 or 8 I should be sitting down to watch an episode of Supernatural, so that I can get my ( Read more... )

I know the feeling of time getting away...but don't worry about Supernatural. The only deadline on that is self-imposed, so just give yourself permission to change the deadline. We'll enjoy reading your review whenever you post it!

Thanks! It's good to be reminded that I'm only driving MYSELF mad with my deadlines, haahaha

I'll figure things out eventually. I think once I get this course done for work, I'll feel more like I have less things hanging over my head on the weekends.

It's a totally weird fucking year.

I dunno what your exercising indoors consists of, but could you put an ep of Show on and watch while you sweat?

Social media is the *worst* of all possible black holes, rabbit holes, times sucks, everything.

I gotta limit myself very strictly or a) too much time spent and b) i get REALLY REALLY REALLY pissed off.

Good luck!

SUCH a weird year.

Unfortunately, I can't exercise and rewatch, because I do the clothing catalogue and my notes while I watch, which means I have to be sitting at the computer to take screenshots and type.

I'm lucky in that I've carefully curated my social media, so it doesn't make me angry (or at least seldom does), but yeah, definitely a bit of a time-suck that I have to regulate.

Oh, yes. I kinda figured, heh.

My FB is like that, mostly just family. But I followed all the 'Alts' on Twitter - AltNASA, AltWH, etc - all the 'underground' or whatever accounts by people who are actually in the WH or in the FDA or whatever, and are not following the party line.

Plus people like Elizabeth Warren and such. Basically news and politics.

I know a lot of people do Twitter for fandom, but that seems so weird to me, so i keep LJ/DW/AO3 for that. :D

I do twitter for comedians, a little fandom, my member of parliament, and BTS these days. But I also use Tweetdeck, so I mute certain words - so if someone posts about something I know upsets me, I'm less likely to see it.

I prefer to CHOOSE when to read the news, etc.

But yeah, FB is for family/friends (also some old coworkers in an attempt not leave doors open, which I sort of regret now, because I'm not sure I want those doors open, but it'd probably be rude to boot them from my FB). Tumblr/LJ/AO3 is for TV/Movie fandom. Twitter/Discord is for BTS fandom, and misc other things.
