Hello Everyone, I wanted to ask people have you seen TV lately? I was getting an oil change and was stuck in the waiting room. The TV began playing a local news forcast. It was surreal to say the least. I asked another patron is this normal? I have not watched TV for years now. What i was seeing was the anchorman who was disheveled and unshaved. He looked like he could not be bothered to take care of his appearance. The woman on the segments were so heavyset that they had doublechins. I recognized no one and was shocked seeing such an unprofessional appearance. I remember that it was important to present a professional well maintained presence in the news room. This was anything but. We live in strange times. Share your observations if. You would.

We turn on local news regularly just for the weather and have noticed a mass rotation of new people. We barely get used to someone, and then they're gone and replaced with someone else. This is never addressed directly to the audience. All goes in line with my "where is everybody?" theory concerning the labor shortage. I think people are dying in droves or at least being vax-injured to the point of not being able to work anymore. The boost to unemployment checks is long over, and unemployment itself runs out eventually. So...where is everybody? I freak my husband out when I talk about this, but damn, I genuinely want to know. But back to your topic, yeah, local news shit is getting weird.
I’m there with ya. I mean it’s like people are disappearing. No one to work jobs. Everything is just...less. And no one is talking about it. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills! The phrase...”well it’s not crowded”, is becoming an understatement.
Right! It's just so odd.
