Messages from the universe or something like it

I spend way too much time browsing youtube or what people are calling 'doom scrolling.' So this means I often come across a lot of thumbnails with different words than the title of the video. Since images are more attractive to the eye than texts, they attracted me. But the question is, is youtube trying to tell me something or am I'm just reading into things for no reason? 
    Anyway, here are some very accurate, mostly true, sometimes too honest, messages found on thumbnails (out of context) at youtube that may or may not apply to me or to you.

Inside thoughts should stay inside
one

The art of trying
two

Do nothing
three

Why does everything feel so boring now?
four

To boldly go nowhere
five

I can't use my brain
six

A coming of rage.
seven

Woefully Uninspired
eight

Work is hell for some of us
nine

It's fine. Everything's fine. Just sautéing my feelings.
ten

    1. Roberta: Do nothing sounds dangerous? I thought of it as just getting a break from the every day stress.

      "Sautéing my feelings" - it's like cooking, you let it simmer, but I guess it's bad to do keep your feelingss insides but I think sometimes getting mad quickly is just as bad.

      Thank you for coming by. Have a lovely day.

  6. "Since images are more attractive to the eye than texts" ... I care to disagree, I always read - even when looking for thing in the supermarket, so I love your captions. "The art of Trying" speaks to me.

    1. Charlotte: I guess I should have said, "I find images are more attractive to my eye" - everyone sees things differently so it's right for you disagree with me.
