'The Muppets Mayhem' hits mostly flat notes on Disney+
Disney's stewardship of the Muppets yields a pretty flat set with "The Muppets Mayhem," which milks the idea of the Electric Mayhem Band recording their first studio album for more than it's worth. A horde of celebrity cameos provide occasional pop along the way, but beyond Muppets completists the 10-episode series provides a little too much reason to sound like Statler and Waldorf.

TikToker cries over reality of working first ever 9–5 job
The world of work can be a difficult place at times, as one TikToker found after graduating college and getting her first job. The reality of travelling into the city, working, and getting back late was all too much for Brielle, who goes by the username brielleybelly123 on the site. Brielle recorded a video of herself in tears, reflecting on her experiences of beginning a new job after graduating. Speaking to the camera, she said: “I know I’m probably just being so dramatic and annoying, but this is my first job, like, my first 9-5 job after college.” Brielle added: “I’m in person and I’m commuting in the city and it takes me f***ing forever to get there.” Later in the video, she said: “I don’t have time to do anything. I want to shower, eat my dinner, go to sleep — I don’t have time or energy to cook my dinner either.” @brielleybelly123 im also getting sick leave me alone im emotional ok i feel 12 and im scared of not having time to live Speaking about her commute in the clip, Brielle said that she travelled more than an hour each way and left for work at 7am. Her words sparked a big reaction in the comments section, with many sympathising with her and calling for a four day working week. One viewer wrote: “The 40 hour work week is beyond outdated and your feelings are totally valid.” Another said: “High school set us up for the 9-5 then college ruined it.” One more wrote: “40 hour work week was designed with a homemaker to take care of house tasks. We need dual incomes now, so that’s not possible. No time for anything.” “Gen Z need to collectively move up into management positions and then collectively enforce the 4 day work week,” a user commented. One more seemed to sum up the collective verdict, saying: “Everyone feels like this and no one does anything about it.” Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter How to join the indy100's free WhatsApp channel Have your say in our news democracy.

Expert reveals the best ways to deal with a friendship breakup
There's no denying breakups can be painful, but friendship breakups can be just as tough. In fact, past research has claimed that 70 per cent of close friendships dissolve after seven years. Charlotte Johnson, relationships expert at Mega Pleasure, has shared just why parting ways with a pal can sometimes feel worse than a romantic relationship breakup. Charlotte suggests that both relationship and friendship breakups are very similar, as both experiences consist of losing someone who is close to you and who you have shared many memories with. "This can result in feeling numb because you’re trying to cope with multiple losses including their friendship and companionship and loyalty," Charlotte explained. "It is important to address the underlying feelings and emotions from this breakup by talking to someone else, such as a family member or additional friend, in order to move on in a healthy way." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter To help navigate a friendship breakup, Charlotte shared seven invaluable tips: Acknowledge your feelings "It’s important to acknowledge and accept your feelings regarding the breakup, as holding in your emotions can lead to feeling overwhelmed and potentially a flux of upset. Allow yourself to feel the emotions and process them in a healthy way." Take time for yourself and give yourself some space and time to heal "Spend time with yourself, do things that make you feel good, and take time to reflect. An example of this can be practising your favourite hobby such as reading or exercising, or even taking more time to relax and unwind such as having a relaxing bath or watching your favourite movies." Reach out for support and talk to friends and family about what happened "It’s important to have a support system during this time, as the people who love you the most can provide you with the best reassurance and advice that you might need." Set boundaries "Moving on from a friendship breakup means setting boundaries. Don’t reach out to your former friend unless it is absolutely necessary as creating space and time is most important in reflection for the both of you. This may be difficult but having time to reflect on the breakup on your own can be really beneficial for clarity and closure." Try to focus on the positives "It’s easy to dwell on the negative aspects of the friendship breakup, but it’s important to focus on the positive. Think about the lessons you learned and the growth you experienced within that relationship and use this moving forward with new friends.” Don't isolate yourself "While it's natural to feel the need for some alone time, try not to isolate yourself for an extended period. Surround yourself with positive influences, whether it's through other friendships, community involvement, or pursuing new interests and hobbies." Give it time "Healing from a friendship breakup takes time. Allow yourself the space and patience to heal at your own pace. Over time, the pain will diminish, and you will be able to move forward with newfound strength." Have your say in our news democracy.
