unsung benefit i think a lot of ppl are sleeping on with using the public library is that i think its a great replacement for the dopamine hit some ppl get from online shopping. it kind of fills that niche of reserving something that you then get to anticipate the arrival of and enjoy when it arrives, but without like, the waste and the money.
I donāt know which author needs to hear this right now but even if you never update your wip i would never regret reading it a time of joy is never wasted
Oh hey, Iāve started doing the ātomorrow wonāt come if I donāt go to sleepā thing again. So Iām gonna go sleep now.Ā
If you come across this post and itās late, please consider turning off your laptop/phone/etc and going to bed. Youāll be glad of it in the morning.
it's not that I need a quiet day or a day off exactly; it's that I need a pocket of time that exists entirely outside of linear time as we know it that would allow me to get things done without time passing in the real world, and frankly, I don't think that's too much to ask.

Sabrina managing to out-stream Taylor and coming for the hit of the summer must be eating her alive, watch her do the same to her that she did to olivia the moment her numbers started to get too big and she could not longer claim her sucess as her doing.
Probably lol I'm convinced she can't stand anyone being "better" than her, even if it's someone's subjective opinion. Which is damn ironic given how much she always wants to claim she's a feminist (she's not) or that she supports other women (she doesn't). She's so fake it's *ALMOST* funny.
I don't understand the fortnight cd??? Like they can buy a cd with 1 song on it?? How would that get it more streams if it's physical sales? And if it's a remix it would be that version getting the numbers?? I don't get any of it??? I dont get how she can be so greedy and butthurt that she might not be number 1 for 2 minutes???
So from the Official Charts website, this is how singles play into it:
"The Official Chart is the most comprehensive survey of its kind, almost a full market count in fact, it captures over 99% of all UK singles consumption, 98% of all albums and over 90% of all videos and DVDs. We count sales and streams from 8,000 sources every single day and then combine them all every Friday for the Official Charts, unveiled by BBC Radio 1 and published on OfficialCharts.com.
"Because buying a single or album is different to streaming a track, we use a formula to combine all of this information: 100 premium streams (when you pay for a subscription) or 600 ad-funded streams are counted as 1 single āpurchaseā.
"For albums, we count the 16 most-streamed tracks from any album, and divide by 1,000 to create an āalbum streamā unit. Each of these units are counted as equivalent to 1 album purchase (whether download, CD or vinyl) for chart purposes. Sales and streams of all versions of a track, including for example remixes, acoustic versions, live versions, sped-up versions, are all combined together into one total and one chart position in the Official Chart."
So that's how that works. As for her inability to not be the most worshipped person on the planet, my working theory is that her ego combined with her victim complex is blinding her to reality.
She's the definition of spoiled rich princess "I see it, I want it, I buy it". In this case, she's buying being the best/most liked (which...says a LOT if you ask me).
But because she's constantly the victim (in her eyes) of everything that happens, then "clearly" (sarcasm) her not being number one is because something has gone wrong, and not, y'know, because people just happen to not like her gross ableist garbage song as much as actually good music.
Basically, she has narcissistic behaviors through the roof, and if everything isn't about her and to her liking 24/7, she's automatically the victim in her mind.
The woman needs boatloads of therapy from a therapist who isn't afraid to tell her the cold hard truth. But that will almost definitely never happen. Which makes it all the more ironic that she used psychiatric torture and murder as an aesthetic for her shitty song.
