Did I just spend almost two hours on expense report?

Yes.

Just... Why is it so hard? Why can't we just put numbers and attach receipts and go? No. Everything has multiple screens with many drop down boxes

This!

Whenever I read something along the lines of that, I get annoyed because what? People need to be hardworking, a contribution to the economy, etc. to have rights and feel safe?

(Many times, well meaning people have told me that they "cannot imagine why they make visas such a painful process. People like you are a great contribution to the country!")

(I get why they say that but also... Can you listen to yourself?)

It took three PhD holders, one PhD candidate and three days to figure out how to switch off the a/c in this apartment

... And it was by accident

I wonder if there really is that many people who do not realize that replying to a stranger on social media spaces is not like replying to a friend. Strangers are unlikely to be able to interpret tone (so try not to be sarcastic), and being overly familiar is just weird

(this hasn't happened to me much, but I see this a lot when I expand replies on other posts here)

edited to add: this is actually a very general problem. I used to see this a lot on twitter too

Tbh it's a pattern. Food, fiction, everything seems to have a "correct" or "wrong" position (healthy vs. unhealthy). I've been reading a lot of essays about cozy SFF vs. grimdark and the very fact that it's juxtaposed against each other feels a lot like one is good for you, the other bad...
