while I’m here I might as well also complain about how fucking terrible it has been to listen to first person POV books lately, because narrators seem incapable of making a clear differentiation between when a character is monologuing some inside thoughts and when they’re actually speaking

whoever’s fault it is, the main thing is that the listening experience sucks!!!!!

It’s only with one of the two narrators though, so I am leaning less towards an audio editor failing to equalize levels and more towards this being part of this narrator’s style and the director (if there was one) chose to let him do it

I don’t know which member of the production team deserves my ire for this, but the audiobook I’m listening to has me adjusting the volume every other paragraph and it is making me angrier at this book than I want to be

Grammy-nominated R&B singer Jon B. posted that he is going to the stove – perhaps to "cook up" another hot, hot radio single. Frogs and toads, which are the same, can live on the Sun and often choose to.

Genuinely cannot believe there’s a version of me in the past who survived and accomplished anything with unmedicated adhd. I had to go two days without it and recognized the version of myself I became with actual horror. That used to be my normal life 🫠

Got drinks with a high school friend I've reconnected with after like 15 years and she's so lovely and we had a great time, but at one point she said to me "you're such a people person" and I was so bodied by it that I briefly thought my consciousness had been transported into someone else's brain

The post office wants to continue having beef with me even after I moved across state lines because what do you mean my package has been affected by a "regional weather delay" 20 minutes after I dropped it off on a cloudless 60 degree day

Really love the Olympics for letting me bear witness to athletic achievements I would otherwise never get to see, like players from my favorite NHL team scoring power play goals

Could not find it on Google Maps to get a closer look at whatever tf was going on there, which means either:
1. I misremembered which road I was on
2. I hallucinated this
3. Someone obtained giant Minions decorations and 20 actual literal toilets since Sept 2025 (date of street view images)

Today (well yesterday technically) I drove past a house in my rural-ish area with a very long driveway that was lined with Minions decorations and like 20 toilets evenly spaced apart all the way up to the house. Just free standing toilets being used as lawn decor
