Fuck Societal Norms. Create Your Own Version Of Normal!

“This is the standard that has been sold to you: a subpar lifestyle that doesn’t benefit you in the slightest. A normal in which you follow the rules and you’re still berated for the effects!”

Society: “Be yourself!”

Also society: “No, not like that.”

I was streaming cartoons late last night on Hulu. Many customers have complained about how loud the commercials are on Hulu, and they are 100% correct! I usually press the mute button once the ads are shown, but I decided to pay attention to the silly garbage companies were trying to convince me to purchase through corny, irritating skits and jingles. After a few rounds of seeing the same shit over and over again I felt compelled to silence the redundant fast food commercials and stop to think for a bit.

Like millions of Americas, by unwinding with my favorite show I was being programmed to crave disgusting sugary coffee, sausage breakfast sandwiches, and eating out every damn day as a treat for merely existing. Because we deserve it, right? We deserve to treat ourselves and never deny ourselves anything! Fast food companies are telling us to give in to all the cravings even though they will dissipate after a few minutes anyway! After all, self-care!
