Depression does the following: 1. It mentally exhausts you. 2. It emotionally drains you. 3. It physically flattens you. Those are real symptoms of a medical condition. Treatment is available. You don't have to live exhausted, drained, and flattened.

A little black cat with large, round eyes wears silver armour and holds a shield and a raised sword. It sits on green grass beneath a softly blended pink, purple and blue sky. White handwritten text above reads: “I will fall, but I will get up. I will fail, but I will try again. I might be scared sometimes, but there’s a brave little heart in me.”

Grandiloquent Word of the Day @grandiloquentwords.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
Fatuous [FA-choo-us] (adj.) - Foolish, inane, or absurd, especially in a smug, complacent, or unconscious manner. From Latin “fatuus” (foolish, silly, insipid). Of uncertain origin. Recorded in English from the 1530s.
A "Grandiloquent Word of the Day" meme for “Fatuous,” defined as "Foolish, inane, or absurd, especially in a smug, complacent, or unconscious manner." An old-fashioned cartoon depicts a self-satisfied, formally dressed man strutting with a cane and book. Example sentence: “Through some inscrutable failure of Providence, the fatuous prickmedainty has been promoted yet again, leaving his subordinates to wonder whether incompetence is not, after all, the company’s sole managerial qualification.”
