It’s weird how much better I feel after I reorganize even part of my home. It’s almost like depression-induced accumulation of squalor begets more depression which begets more squalor. Who knew except everyone but me apparently?

I love when you misspell a word once and then AutoCorrect assumes that’s what you meant to do and forces you to misspell every subsequent use of that word. Like “Well. Apprently this one’s an idiot. Far be it from me and my database of correct spelling to question him 🤷‍♂️”
