It could be fine in certain contexts - for example medical contexts - but I think an important distinction that made it stand out in your comment was that you used female for women but didn’t use the equivalent “male” for men 😊

I think it’s more a reference to pausing the doom scrolling which is maybe a habit to avoid the boredom or discomfort of the current situation, and trying to focus on enjoying that. Enjoying your time eating lunch or dinner, and focusing on that, instead of scrolling or watching a video always. Enjoying a walk without a podcast or music. Enjoying the comfort of being safe and warm in bed instead of distracting from thoughts. Things like that. It’s a skill you build and as you build it you will be more open to getting dopamine from sources other than doomscrolling. Other benefits include being able to manage uncomfortable thoughts and feelings better and also have the boredom and discomfort drive you to do other things. Of course this works best when paired with things like DBT skills to help with thoughts and emotions.

It’s specifically using compound words of the left + top words together, so I think that’s already filtered out save for typos, very specific stains, and eccentric breakfast option

Not sure how I’ll eat all of it 😅

Nope, just a Canadian who didn’t grow up going to many fast food chains before taco bell apparently closed all its doors in the surrounding area!

I KNOW it’s not good, I KNOW my shtummy will hurt after, but I don’t remember ever trying taco bell in my life and I am so insanely curious about it. There are none nearby where I live and I don’t drive. It’s been ages that I’ve had this burning curiosity. I already decided that once I get to go I will be ordering a crunchwrap (idk the menu but this is the item I hear the most people talk about).
