Tizku l'mitzvos and I hope you have an easy day.

So ideally ye I probably shouldn't be on here.
Realistically I will be. |
I hope you have an easy fast* and encounter material here that will help you have a productive day.

Realistically I don't get through the day without some mindless distraction.
But also one of my perennial favorite Tisha bav videos came from this site - it's simply a man reading Eicha but with feeling and it has been perfect for all these years when my parenting was incompatible with hearing it in shul (and in shul it's kind of random whether the reader will be good and also audible)

I think the issue is one of time zones as already mentioned. It would be impossible to make sure it is down for all the imas in Australia, USA, Israel, Europe etc at the correct Tisha B’Av time.

There's a lot of meaningful content out there if you're able to watch or read something.
Hope you have an easy day!

Just curious how it's in your circles. Are people secluding themselves in their homes, and not making phone calls, not sitting in their bungalow colonies chatting with each other, and so on?
This is not Yom Kippur where we need to daven all day long. Many of us need distractions and support to get through this difficult day. I don't see this different than any other forms of communication. How is this different than chatting with your summer neighbors in the bungalow colonies, or commiserating with your friend on the phone how tough the day is? We're adults - everyone is mindful of the day and chooses the topics appropriately.
