Welcome to my blog! Today’s topic is random and completely off the cuff because, well, why not? Let’s talk about the all-important life skill of procrastination.
First of all, let me say that I am an expert in this field. I mean, why do something today when you can put it off until tomorrow, right? Who needs a deadline when you can have a Netflix binge session instead?
But let’s not just talk about procrastination, let’s celebrate it! Because, let’s be honest, it’s not just a lazy habit, it’s an art form. It takes skill and finesse to avoid doing something for hours, days, weeks, or even months.
So, in honor of this under-appreciated talent, I have compiled a list of my top procrastination techniques:
1. Social Media Scrolling: This one is a classic, but still effective. Twitter, Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, the options are endless. Just don’t think about the lost hours you’ll never get back!
2. Cleaning: What better way to avoid work than by making your living space spotless? Nevermind that you’ve been living in filth for days because you were “too busy” procrastinating.
3. Online Shopping: A dangerous one, but oh so tempting. Why work on that report when you can buy the perfect pair of shoes instead?
4. Watching Cats on Youtube: Let’s be honest, nobody can resist the lure of feline cuteness on the internet. One minute you’re watching a kitten roll around, the next thing you know, it’s been two hours!
5. Making Lists: You know what they say, if you can make a list, you can procrastinate. Write down all the things you need to do, organize them alphabetically, then pat yourself on the back for being so productive.
Procrastinating may be frowned upon by society, but here at my blog, we say embrace it! Go forth and put off whatever task is in front of you. And if anyone judges you, just call it “strategic time management.” Your welcome.

- What Happens When a Children’s Entertainer Won’t Stay Apolitical
Ms. Rachel is the current example. She will not be the last. There is an unwritten contract between children’s entertainers and the public, and it is stricter than the one we impose on almost any other kind of celebrity. Musicians are allowed opinions. Politics is practically part of the job description. Actors get more room too, because their politics usually exist outside the work itself, … - Jesus, Empire and the Problem With Reclaiming What Was Never Ours Alone
There are essays you read and immediately know you disagree with. Then there are essays that make you uncomfortable precisely because you agree with enough of them to have to think harder about the parts you don’t. “The Paradox of Deification of Jesus Christ,” written by Lovemore Chishamba is the second kind. I have to say that I love the essay’s anger. That may sound … - Why Ms. Rachel Can’t Just Stop Talking About Gaza
Rachel Accurso built a $1 million donation career out of teaching toddlers how to say “mama,” identify farm animals and jump like bunnies. Her YouTube channel now has more than 21 million subscribers. There is a Netflix deal, a Sesame Street collaboration, merchandise, books and, this month, her first album, I’m So Happy. She has become one of the most recognisable faces in children’s entertainment. And yet, for the past two years, she has repeatedly found herself in the middle of one of the most vicious political arguments on the internet….
