Is it because of the genocide happening across the world?

The fact that the world's richest eight individuals have as much wealth as the bottom 50% of the world?

Well, according to a study, attractive long term mates are linked to lower creativity in women.

This drop is explained by heightened sexual arousal.

Oh, okay, so when you're horny, you're distracted.

At least I know my crushes also not getting any work done.

The study found that men were more motivated to perform well after viewing attractive mates, which predicted greater creativity.

Oh, so men want to draw you like they're French girls and women want to lay on a couch and get some.

But I will say this study had a small sample size.

And I'm not 100% sold on their methods of measuring creativity, but anecdotally, it seems to fit.

Yeah, I guess if we look at dating and mating norms men traditionally pursue.

So maybe when they're attracted to someone, they up their efforts, they get creative.

Whereas women's cognitive resources may be redirected towards relationship focused processing or increasing one's attractiveness.

I did spend an excruciatingly long time doing my makeup.

And then posting an Instagram story and then spending hours checking if my crush saw it.

Now take your sexually aroused ass out of my office.

Yeah, because I have two destructive foster kittens in my office, so we had to pivot to shooting here for making my life hell.

I love them so much, but they're so cute.
