Obviously these are simplified versions of complex possibilities. But I’m curious where we’d place the odds.

Okay this one’s kind of a bummer but it’s been living in my drafts for a long time and I want to set it free.

What drives home the loneliness most?

Making food and not having anyone to share it with

Having a task you physically cannot complete without help

Seeing groups of people out having a good time together

Seeing couples in love

Not feeling well and having no choice but to take care of yourself

Wanting to share something positive or exciting but not knowing who to talk to

Wanting to vent or talk something through but not knowing who to talk to

I actually haven’t felt lonely in a while (good for you, genuinely)

I keep seeing a post about how ridiculous it is to ask people to moderate their AC temps when big corporations waste so much energy. I agree with the anti-corp messaging but have been a little surprised by what people in the notes consider normal AC usage.

What’s a normal AC temperature to you? (Fahrenheit)

<65

65-66

67-68

69-70

71-72

73-74

75-76

77-78

79-80

>80

AC isn’t normal

(I’m not judging whatever you keep yours at. I’m just genuinely curious.)

For what it’s worth, I keep mine at about 78°F.
