Vent: I used to binge 3 episodes a night now I'm lucky if I finish 1

Back in 2019 I'd crush through 3 episodes of something like Mob Psycho 100 every night after work no problem. Now between running my pest control business and dealing with family stuff, I sat down last Tuesday to watch Orbital Children and fell asleep 20 minutes in. Maybe it's just me getting older or the shows getting slower, but has anyone else hit that wall where your attention span just tanks?

Nah, it's not the shows getting slower. Life just piles up and your brain gets fried from having to make decisions all day. By the time you get to relax, you're running on fumes. I've got a stack of unwatched discs that's honestly embarrassing at this point. Being an adult with responsibilities just eats up the mental energy you used to have for getting lost in a story. It sucks but it's pretty normal honestly.

Heard a podcast say decision fatigue is real, like your brain just hits a wall after a long day.
