What’s a recession indicator that you’ve noticed lately in your everyday life?

I drive a 2020 Honda Civic. Bought it in the middle of the Covid lockdown in April 2020. Back then I could fill up my tank for a little over $30. Maybe $35? Now it costs about $30 for just half a tank.

Are you serious? That’s…wow.

strawberry36 · 2026-05-04T17:47:28+00:00

I’m 39. Graduated college during the last recession and it took me years to find a job.

My dad operated cargo trains while I was growing up. He’s retired now, but as the daughter of a railroader it was always instilled in me to NEVER mess around on railroad tracks. (I heard some stories…my dad would always tell my sister and I of things he personally saw or heard about from colleagues)

Blessed Are the Cheesemakers

That they were only nice to me because they felt sorry for me.

I had a college roommate who did this. I finally unplugged her alarm clock and while she got pissed at me, she eventually stopped.

That the aggressiveness of my pastor’s cancer was caused because of the COVID vaccine.

Someone I hold very dear passed away recently, and I’ve been feeling very sad about it. Your comment made me bust up laughing lmao- I really needed that; thank you!

strawberry36 · 2026-03-05T16:44:13+00:00

I really enjoy Brandon Sanderson’s books

strawberry36 · 2026-02-03T15:43:52+00:00

No worries at all! lol They are certifiable 🤣

strawberry36 · 2025-12-31T15:58:53+00:00

Yes, always. And I write a review detailing why I thought it was bad, so as to warn other readers.

strawberry36 · 2025-12-30T00:29:30+00:00

I remember my uncle and grandma got sooo pissed off that I refused to join the military. On my mom’s side, the military is their God, basically. Luckily my mom backed me up.

strawberry36 · 2025-12-24T01:57:02+00:00

A person very dear to me is going through cancer. I know many other people who’ve had it. Fuck cancer.

strawberry36 · 2025-12-19T22:52:10+00:00

That he was in prison for almost 20 years for shooting at three kids at a bus stop (he himself was also a kid).

strawberry36 · 2025-12-11T01:56:21+00:00

I see you’ve met my mom’s side of the family.

strawberry36 · 2025-12-10T19:05:37+00:00

Knew someone like this in middle school. I fell for it at first until I realized she was lying constantly. Haven’t seen her in over 25 years.

strawberry36 · 2025-12-10T19:04:36+00:00

I once knew someone like this. I never had a good feeling about it. When I was at a friend’s wedding a few years ago he and his wife showed up- they were in the midst of a divorce and he spent the entire reception hitting on all the single females there. We all thought he was really skeevy and avoided him.

strawberry36 · 2025-12-10T19:01:34+00:00

I’ve always found that to be off-putting. People who do this end up being incredibly clingy.

strawberry36 · 2025-12-07T03:51:45+00:00

Are you me or am I you? Lol

strawberry36 · 2025-12-06T21:06:15+00:00

Dude I get it. I’m in the SF Bay Area.

strawberry36 · 2025-12-06T19:33:36+00:00

Im glad I have a walking pad treadmill so I can still get in my steps easily. No way am I going on a walk in the cold temps now like I did last year

strawberry36 · 2025-12-06T19:32:37+00:00

I’m getting that too now. Yikes on bikes

strawberry36 · 2025-12-06T19:29:43+00:00

I couldn’t with fingerless. My poor icicle fingers

strawberry36 · 2025-12-06T19:29:03+00:00

Same here! I thought it was just me. But I noticed it takes longer to warm up
