I think for a lot of people (myself included), we expected #ThorLoveAndThunder to be the saving grace from the mediocre MCU Phase 4, because Taika had done that exact thing for the Thor film series as a whole. /1
And the movie we got destroyed that by being so shockingly meh and from not the Taika we knew from his previous filmography that it broke our collective excitement for the hope that good directors won’t get screwed over by Disney’s interference. /2

Thoughtcast content for October is almost done. But I'm just very burnt out right now.
It used to be very unhealthy for me where I wracked my brain for topics every day, and none of them are good enough. I also try to get the episode edited and scheduled within /1
3-4h of recording, resulting in panic and anxiety attacks if Audacity or my laptop dies. I still do feel guilty for not writing or recording anything right now, rendering me mentally exhausted all the time. We were supposed to record tomorrow but I just don't feel ready to /2
record, talk and edit. Add that with arbitrary deadlines I set for myself with the upcoming fanfic, the stress of printing affordable and good-quality physical copies of my collections, and a messed-up sleep schedule (because I literally can't sleep) and there ya go. That's /3
