I've been watching far too much mediocre anime at this stage of the quarantine and the sheer number of indistinguishable choices feels like the same problem. I'm choosing to watch these *because* I can turn my brain off while watching them, but I don't like the fact that I am seeking out mindnumbing drivel, or the fact that the mindnumbing drivel dominates the field. I keep telling myself I'll go back to rewatch something I actually like when I've reset my brain, but who knows when that will happen?

As for cooking, I've recently settled into the rhythm of frying eggs daily instead of trying to make an omelette/fritata and the simplicity has helped me relax. Minor variations every time, but always easy. Figuring out the difference between numbing and relaxing is a problem for when my brain seems less broken.
