Maybe it’s because I’m obsessive about words and enjoy overthinking things, but I do this a lot with common words and phrases that we use. The one that horrified me today was the phrase “cost of living”. It’s right in front of our faces that it literally costs money to remain alive. Did we know this already? Of course! But the fact that it’s so deeply woven into every aspect of our lives and people don’t even pay attention to what’s coming out of their mouths is wild to me. Wild, and wildly upsetting.

I hope this wasn’t a weird post or a post that doesn’t belong! I will delete or accept a removal of the post if it doesn’t fit. Thanks for reading all of this.

    It’s supposed to sound like “User Experience”.
