Whether it’s going back to work after a long period of time off. Knowing the world or your country has gone to shit. Feeling like your life is stagnant. We all need to cope some to get it through and make it another day.
I personally eat, it’s not a good way to cope since it can lead to health issues but it sometimes helps.
I also sometimes re-watch or re-listen to things over and over. Of things that make me feel a little comfortable to watch and listen to again. YouTube videos I hadn’t watched in a while, songs I haven’t listened to forever or maybe go another few rounds of listening to an old podcast long out of syndication.
I’ve made a playlist of an old show I used to have listened to when they’ve made new episodes. They haven’t made new episodes since 2012 to record.
Compiling a playlist, I’ve found that with every season they made combined, is a total of 8 days worth of recorded material. But I’ve listened to the show so much, it is white noise to me and sometimes I do catch something I haven’t heard before. It’s interesting.
I wanted to get into baking more a time ago, but my apartment management has RUB charges and my oven is operated by gas. so, it’s hard for me to know how much I’m paying when I’m not only paying for my usage, but I’m paying for the usage of others in the building because of the RUB system. I hate it so I haven’t used my oven in two and a half years straight.
