With Spotify Wraps everywhere, I have a question about music: What speed do you listen to music at? I generally do 3x, but will slow it down to 2x if I enjoy the artist.

I like 1x.

We all have our preferences. Yours is unique. If you like the way you listen, there is no need for approval from others , go for being you.

What is the point of this? Do you like seeing if you can make them sound like chipmunks? Are you in a race to get through your playlist? There are no extra points if you get through it quickly. There’s literally no value in this at all.

Ummmm, normal? The way it was written?

Do you have adhd? The only people I know who don’t listen at normal speed are neurodivergent. My daughter said it quiets her mind. She only listens at 1.5x, though.

I love how you said you will slow down to 2x if you like the artist as if 2x wasn’t already HELLA fast.

Do you enjoy listening to music? There’s no requirement for you to listen if you don’t. Speeding up an audiobook or podcast is one thing, because there’s information you’re getting through faster. But the only point of music is to enjoy it, so… why mess it up? And an average song is 3 minutes long. Do you really need those 2 minutes that badly?

I do this with youtube and find myself wanting to do it with shows on streaming services, but there is no way to do it there yet. I think it’s because we are over-saturated with so much information that we want to rush to the answers and results, and we get bored with the average speed. Some shows seem to be too slow now, as if the show-runners are trying to dilute the stories

With music, it’s a bit odd, though.

Last busy season was hell because we were short staffed (only 3 of us), and I fear that next one will be even worse because we are in a market where we do not have a ton of people we could hire.

Been with my GF since college and we recently hit the 4 year mark. 1-2 years into our relationship I found out she had instances of micro-cheating (flirting with guys, talking to ex’s etc - but nothing physical) and we addressed it. To her credit and my knowledge, she’s been apologetic and great at respecting boundaries since, but I still feel the pain from her actions years ago (and have talked to her about it).
