Talking About Melissa & Courtney, Gen-X women making art, Gen-X Men At Jan 6th, Poems, Being 51, Looks/Beauty/Self-Esteem, Comedy Culture, Growing Up Analog, Being a Human, Your Comments, Indie Book Stores.

What DON'T I talk about in this video???

I thought I was going to pop on here for ten minutes to tell you who care about this particular Gen-X vein that I saw Melissa Auf De Maur last night at the Strand Bookstore last night. She has a new memoir out about being in a 90's rock band.

I talk about how seeing her brought a lot of things full circle for me about being younger, beauty myths, so many things.

Just watch the video. It's a good episode. Even if you think you won't relate.

Also,

I'm going to post a list of books I've read (that aren't about ADHD/Autism) in another post and link to 20% off the books if you want to check them out with my partnership with Bookshop online. I read A LOT and it's crazy how many books I read at once - some I never finish but whatever, I will one day. xo, jen

Literally the most boring video ever made. You'll all regret your decision to join up. Cancellations will be flying off the shelves as I wander around Rock Center area ambling towards the subway after a doctor's appointment and decide to make some I Seem Fun Reboot 2026 "content."

I talk about how I've done two auditions for two separate roles on a new TV show that begins filming this summer about 9/11 first responders and how all I want is to be on a TV show about 9/11 (I didn't book 1 of the roles, doubtful I booked the role I'm talking about in this video as I'd have had a callback by now - but that is okay! It truly was an honor to be asked and it is a big deal. And I love acting so much - prepping the work was a thrill.)

ANYWAY - hope those of you who don't live in NYC or have never been or used to live here and miss it, have fun seeing Rockefeller Center not at Christmas or the 30 Rock building or the Jimmy Fallon (who really cares though about that, I can't imagine anyone) building. Literally maybe the most boring parts of NYC? Lol.

Watch this when you need to fall asleep or if they run out of anesthesia during a major surgery.

xo, jen

I think basically NO ONE gets married except Vic and what's her face. And I think they already were married when Love Is Blind production made them go around with a polaroid camera and tin cans to film their courtship and throw it into the mix.

We need to save Britney and deprogram her from her wedding obsession.

I knew Chris was bad news from the "cold-plunge" convos in the pods.

Someone tell Devonte that he isn't a white man.

Bri is MAGA I think.

I need to see Ashley's dad really be THE PROTECTOR at the wedding "backstage"

Okay, I so thought I was EATING with this one y'all. I was like "I'll make a Loom and we can watch this awesome Love Is Blind scene together where Ashley's dad grills Alex."

NOPE.

The audio didn't come out on the Netflix show. Just my audio.

I assume that it's a Netflix not allowing people to record thing - usually one would get a black screen if they were being thwarted but seems that there are other ways to ruin me trying to pirate a video! But if you're obsessed enough with Love Is Blind you may be able to make it through this video.

You can at least read the captions of what the people are saying and see their faces. It will be like being at a silent film! You need more culture in your life anyway!

xo, jen

Hey all

Well, I got on the mic for a "quick" hello to say that I was blown away by the response from everyone when I decided to come back.

And then I started talking about what a shit-tastic year 2025 was

trigger warning: talk of death, caretaking, losing people but also not trigger warning, talk of joy

bottom line, 2026 CANNOT y'all, CAN NOT FUCKING SUCK EVEN IF IT TECHNICALLY SUCKS

We WILL SEEM FUN

xo, jen

This is the old I Seem Fun coming back to life 12 years later but in a new way! No set day it drops. There can be multiple posts per week, audio, video, anything! Not a "formal" podcast. A place! A place for us all to meet up and try to have some fucking fun around here. Too much shit has gone down to ever really "go back" and also too much shit has gone down to not go back to a little silly-ness about whatever. But this isn't a podcast. It's a place. I'll show up as often as I can with videos, audios, pictures, writings. All of it the exact same kind of stuff you remember from I Seem Fun, honest and personal stories from my life, and hopefully funny at least sometimes. My observations on culture and the world. It will be different but it will feel so familiar, I hope it will give you some comfort in this world run by baby-eating billionaires. Join and help me hit my goal of 2,000 subscribers!

This week: Jen talks about how (and why) this is the closing/final episode of “No Fun” and why there was no penultimate episode last week…being radicalized for Madonna but not seeing her concert, honest truths about 2023 revisiting old thought patterns, and finally the podcast ended as it began - with a passion for needing to do it!

In this episode: Jen talks about how the nagging feeling of being overwhelmed brought her to an ADHD diagnosis. Jen also discusses: the difference between actually having too much to do and the phantom feeling of overwhelm which can’t be solved with a to-do list and how to cope with overwhelm.
