I heard there might be a motel near Central Park—somewhere in the $15 range per night—but honestly, I have no clue if that’s actually true or where exactly it would be located.

Laura Johnson said:I live in Brooklyn, and every single morning I’m jolted awake by the noise coming from the church right across the street. It isn't just the occasional bell ringing—it's the Mass. Yes, every day here in Brooklyn, I am forced to sit through the entire service. Apparently, the priest decided to mount the speakers on the exterior wall. Today is Sunday, and all morning long, I’ve been subjected to people singing at the top of their lungs and listening to the priest's sermon. Honestly, I feel like this infringes on my religious rights or even my basic rights as a citizen of Washington, D.C. Who can I contact without having to call 911? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Just get yourself a train siren and blast it while they're praying. Do it every time until things change. A neighbor of mine had a similar issue with a kid keeping him up at night, so he bought one of those industrial sirens—it's loud enough to drive anyone crazy.😁

I haven't really found myself yet, so it's hard to even figure out where I fit in. To be honest, I catch myself just following what everyone else is doing, even if I won't admit it to myself.

I caught a glimpse of myself in that—it's hard to admit, but I don't really know who I am when I'm left alone with my own thoughts. When there's nothing to do, I often find myself just staring at a wall or some random spot on the floor, lost in nothingness. I'm constantly mimicking others—not literally, obviously, but my behavior tends to drift toward theirs. I watch how people live, observing their gestures and patterns. It's not voyeurism, it's more like... following a script? I frequently wish I could be someone else—someone I actually know—because I’m always under the impression that everyone else is living a much more compelling life than mine. That's where that longing comes from, I suppose. When I'm stuck in my head, I wonder what everyone else is up to right this second. Is it just me who finds everything so incredibly dull? I have this nagging feeling that I don't actually possess a "self." 🤷

I just spend whatever I have on hand at the moment—sometimes more, sometimes less.

Why limit it to just Saturday? I’m out and about seven days a week—honestly, things usually get a lot more interesting during the week than they do over the weekend. ☕

there's a certain satisfaction in destroying things that have outlived their usefulness. 👍 Nothing
really specific comes to mind, but you know what I mean.

🤷

Yeah, 😁
The other day, I was losing my mind because one side of my earbuds stopped working. I ended up snapping them in half, tossing the MP3 player right onto the asphalt, and just crushing it under my bike tires. Honestly? After that, I felt incredibly fulfilled. 🤣

But I have to wonder, though... what about the people who actually can't function when the sun is up? Like, how do they manage? Are they even able to hold down jobs, or how do they even get by? Do they actually spend the daylight hours sleeping, or are they just sort of forcing themselves through the day and hoping for the best?
How do you all make it work?
I think I read somewhere once that during puberty, that sleep-regulating gland kicks in maybe three or four hours later than it does for adults—which I guess is why there's always so much drama between parents and teenagers regarding curfews and bedtimes and all that.
hmmm
It's a pretty interesting topic, isn't it?

They probably just work the graveyard 👍

Casey Jackson17 said:daytime is just one big stress factory full of obligations, pressure, and being forced to constantly perform... but the night? the night is relaxing, there are no strings attached, it lets you tap into that emotional creativity and actually be yourself. it gives you this sense of absolute freedom. I'm with you on this—night is special, it's where you go to unwind...🙏

👍 my favorite part of the day is happening right now, enjoy it 😁

Michelle Hall64 said:I simply cannot fall asleep once the Darkness sets in. I find myself waiting until those first rays of sunlight practically drag me back toward my bed. My brain just functions perfectly at night; I feel this incredible sense of peace when I’m out walking around at 3:00 AM. Just wandering through nature alone in the dead of night, taking in every single sound, every rustling leaf... it's wonderful. But once the daylight hits? Everything feels dull and washed out. My brain just kind of shuts down. Honestly, no amount of coffee or energy drinks can snap me out of it...

It hasn't caused much trouble in my social life, per se, but if I actually want to function like a normal human being, I have to force myself into bed by 7:00 or 8:00 PM, before the sun goes down. It isn't that I'm afraid of the dark—not at all—it's more like I feel completely out of sync with the world. I don't know if there is some medical or psychological term for this phenomenon? Is it just me, or does anyone else experience this?

My sweet spot is somewhere between 10:00 PM and 6:00 AM. I just love that stretch of time. Once dawn starts breaking, I get incredibly restless—I can't stand those mindless people hitting the streets, all the car noise and clutter. At night, everything is better, more beautiful. When I'm out walking around 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning, it feels like I'm the only person left on Earth. Just silence and the sounds of nature. It’s incredible. 🙂

Why does this happen? Have you ever had one of those moments where you just start cracking up at something totally mindless—something that isn't even funny, really—and you simply can't stop for like thirty minutes? You end up sounding completely out of your mind. 😁
I had this experience the other day—just some guy riding his bike down the street, lost in his own world, when he suddenly started laughing like there was no tomorrow. I almost tripped over my own feet watching him. He’s just pedaling along, cackling like a maniac... it wasn't even a normal laugh, just that loud, borderline manic kind of hysteria. 😂
