PSA: I watched all of Severance in one weekend and my brain is still stuck in that office
I had a slow Friday and decided to start the first episode, but the mystery of what Lumon actually does hooked me so bad I didn't stop until the finale. Has anyone else had a show completely take over their weekend like that?

Oh man, I did the same thing with that show... I had to go for a long walk outside after, just to clear my head. Sometimes you just need to reset your brain with some fresh air. It's the only thing that works for me.

The thing nobody talks about is how the show messes with your perception of time after you turn it off. I spent Sunday evening just zoning out staring at my kitchen clock, feeling like my work self and home self were two different people. It's like the show teaches your brain to separate your life into compartments, and suddenly you notice you do that anyway with different parts of your day. The way they drag out those silent elevator rides and the beige hallways makes your real life feel just as empty and repetitive for a few hours. By Monday morning I was genuinely worried I'd forget what I did over the weekend like an innie.
