Meh

I’m definitely distracted.

Maybe because today was a ‘second Monday’ due to the holiday. Except I was off on ‘real’ Monday.

2 days into the new year, and today I misplaced (lost) my parking garage ticket, so I had to pay the 50% additional penalty to get my car.

I think it fell out of my pocket on my way to the office. One block away from the garage.

The rest of the work day seemed to go fine.

At home I fell into a rabbit hole about bullet journaling on YouTube, and ultimately decided that it wasn’t for me.

Sharks won.

When the reimaged Hawaii Five-O premiered, I watched it for a couple seasons. I got bored of it and stopped.

I’ve stopped watching the DC shows on CW, because I got bored of them.

I’ve drastically cut down on the number of comics I read on a monthly basis.

I don’t watch Star Trek Discovery.

I’m didn’t watch a full NFL football game once this season.

In all cases, they went on without me.

I see lots of people bemoaning Disney and their upcoming Star Wars projects, or people upset with Doctor Who because of the way the show is now.

So why can’t they simply walk away?

The whole ‘childhood ruined’ excuse is stupid for a myriad of reasons.

Hell, any excuse is stupid. Walk away.

Being a consumer doesn’t mean that you HAVE to consume everything.

And shouting at the wind won’t make any of these corporations change their minds.
