Weekly Wrap Up~ 1/18/26-1/24/26

After doing monthly wrap-ups in 2025, I decided to go back to weekly wrap-ups for 2026. I’ll be linking up with The Sunday Post hosted by Caffeinated Reviewer.
Life
I was sick most of this week, so pretty much just slept and read and played mindless games.
The only other thing of real note I did was delete Tik Tok. I mean, I never posted and only watched other videos (mostly animal videos and TV show/movie edits), but I have no desire to support the new ownership. Yes, I do still have META socials that I use for specific purposes, and I have seriously considered dropping them as well. But I am trying to build community (and my largest community is currently on Threads), and I want to stay informed outside of corporate news organizations, so I’m staying with them for now. I’m not ready to be cut off entirely from like-minded people, and Bluesky hasn’t been very interactive for me.
