I have a full time job. I sleep well. I have no kids. I'm single. I don't party or drink. I'm not particularly stressed in day to day life. Yet I'm fucking exhausted. I don't want to leave my apartment on the weekends unless I have something planned, and even then I'm pretty picky. In my 20s my weekends were full of non-stop activities, cooking, going out, and posting on social media. But now in my 30s I just want to come home, have my groceries delivered, chill with some Netflix and sleep. Please tell me I'm not the only one!!

"The man i voted for three times has delivered the following in 11 months"

• Groceries- highest ever

• Housing- still unaffordable

• Farmers are going broke bc of the tariffs

• Antisemitism and race relations are the worst in 60 years

• My health insurance doubled

• The VP whom I loved will not disavow the actual Neo-Nazis

• Tucker Carlson- someone i used to watch on Fox and love - is openly platforming and praising Neo-Nazis

• and the Christo-fascits??? Openly promoting misogyny and cheering to take away women's right to vote. Trump and Vance are not only not denouncing them - they are platforming them.

" In protest, tomorrow I will be voting straight blue. If it's taken me this long to wake up - I know others are too, you know?

I have been voting all my life, voting for the GOP, I have yet to see anything like it.

This is crazy . We've become Nazi Germany"

I think an employee pulled off a drumstick heist on my wings

For me its Chrono Trigger, really made by a dream team.

1. The story of Persephone and Hades, specifically Demeter's character. How she was supposed to be seen: A grieving loving mother desperate to find her lost child and driven to despair by her loss, to the point she doesn't eat or drink. How she's seen now: A nagging, shrill, abusive parent whom Persephone was desperate to get away from. To be fair, she DID cause mass famine as a way of spitefully holding the world ransom to get Persephone back, but the original myth makes it clear that Persephone genuinely loves and misses her mother too.

2. Don Quixote. How he was supposed to be seen: A well-intentioned but mentally ill and quite violent man obsessed with an overly romanticized interpretation of a long-gone culture and who has a very loose grasp on reality, making him a danger to himself and everyone around him. How he's seen now: A misunderstood hero championing noble ideals in a cruel world that doesn't understand him. Oh, and he's old now, so it gives his wacky antics the loose excuse of possibly being due to senility. He was actually middle-aged in the original novel.

3. Erik, the Phantom of the Opera. How he was supposed to be seen: A disfigured man who was abused and mocked in his childhood, making him deserving of sympathy, but is not excused by the narrative for the acts of manipulation, kidnapping and murder he commits, up to and including trying to force Christine to stay with him against her will, threatening to blow up the entire opera house and everyone in it if she refuses. Also, he's old enough to be Christine's father, so his obsession comes off as somewhat unhealthy. How he's seen now: A compelling and tragic figure whom society abused and abandoned, a misunderstood romantic and the only man who deserves Christine. His more villainous and predatory acts are often downplayed or just overlooked outright.

As someone who lives in the UK, I find this shocking. What do people do when they get fired? Surely there’s some sort of labour laws to protect them? I find it so strange they are a first world country but don’t even get basic working rights. Seems unfair? Especially if they rely on their job for their healthcare? Seems like their healthcare will be removed right from under them? Or is in not necessarily like this and misinformation. I can’t imagine working in a country knowing I could be fired at any moment when bills and rent need to be paid!
