Have you ever scrolled through Facebook and rolled your eyes so much that they began to hurt?
Okay, maybe not that hard, but kind of!
The other day, I was in a not-so-good mood, and I think the universe knew it because all of the stupid, mind-numbing political rants, cat videos, and relationship updates crawled out of the woodwork and began typing crap.
I have nothing against cats; I find those videos cute, but there’s a point where it becomes too much. Let’s all agree to share our cat videos in moderation, shall we? Keep some of those cat videos to yourself, and leave us alone. SET A LIMIT AND THEN GO READ A BOOK OR SOMETHING.
Political rants, don’t even get me started on that! I feel that we were given two crappy choices, and quite frankly, they both had pros and cons, but whatever, America has spoken, and the political race is over. If you don’t like the winner, then come back in four years, and let’s go at it again. Or better yet, let’s all just agree to disagree and move on with our lives, shall we?
Relationship status, dear God, make it stop!
There are a few folks on my timeline that I have known all my life, so I feel weird about deleting them. But Lord knows if I see them kissing and hugging up with one more weirdo, I’ll hit that delete button so fast. It’s like a virtual cringe fest that I can’t escape from!
It’s not just the fact that they are kissing a weirdo, but it’s several weirdos. Every time I turn around, it’s a new guy, and they are “in love” and calling each other pet names.
And I’m sitting there thinking this relationship will not last, so please stop exposing us to this mess!

The real issue here is oversharing. I’m tired of sifting through posts that make me roll my eyes and mutter ‘so what, who cares?’ It’s time we all took a step back and thought about what we’re putting out there.
You could have chosen any blog to read, but you chose mine, and I’m honored!

I’ve pretty much bailed on news..what I read today will be the same garbage in two or four weeks…and really cut down on Facebook time by just doing stuff so I don’t have the time, or watching/listening to podcasts….Rich Roll’s are amazing..the last bunch, ultra marathoner Ricky Gates talking about his run across America and Robbie Balenger both doing the same, Yuval Noah Harari taught me to watch AI closely, it’s going to change everything (I expect AI music to win a grammy soon) bike racer Dotsie Bausch who taught me to stay away from mile and eat plants, Edward Norton just wow, an amazing guy, and Dr Robin Berzin, well, I’m trying Omega 3s, Creatin, and B complex and also staying away from animal protein..don’t need it….productive, and what we really need is for all people to talk to, and respect each other…..there was a time, that’s when everything was great again

You said so many good things! The right protein is so important and does wonder for your body. I was just telling my daughter yesterday that I am back being serious about my food and my vitamins. Just makes you feel so mu ch better.
I admire all those marathon runners so much,they are built different mentally!

I can’t tell you how much I agree with you! FB is the bane of my existence. I deleted it for a long time and only just recently reactivated it. It’s so cringey over there.

I use Facebook for business information. I find that quite a few people overshare for their personal accounts. For example, every thought that enters their head.

Oversharing, yes, that sounds like facebook or instragram for that matter.
What surprised me on facebook was or is that men try to make contact. They are fake, of course, but what do they get out of it? I don’t get it.

Very funny post! On the flip side, I hate getting on FB and seeing, “My cat just died, “My dog just died,” “My mother just died,” etc. It really puts a damper on my day when I see post after post like that.

This is so relatable, it’s like Facebook is a never-ending cringe loop sometimes. Totally agree, a little moderation would go a long way. Thanks for the laugh and the reality check.

Relatability pro max!!! sometimes the posts scream ‘I’m lying,’ yet somehow the comment section is full of sympathy and praise. It’s strange how easily people fell into it. It sometimes make me wonder, are we all seeing the same thing? 😂😂
