DAE find that family gossip sessions sharpen your sleuthing skills?

I just had an epiphany that analyzing my relatives' drama is weirdly similar to piecing together a true crime podcast narrative.

Wait, you kept NOTES? On your phone? lmao that is next level. I might mentally file away the drama, but having an actual document is like you're building a case file. That's not just sharpening skills, that's setting up a full conspiracy wall in your notes app.

My cousin's custody battle had me jotting down every detail in my notes app. It made spotting patterns in stories way easier when dates and times were written down. I color coded entries for each person involved, which cut through the confusion fast. Without that doc, I would have lost track of who said what weeks ago. Now I use the same method for any family drama, and it keeps me sane.

My aunt's divorce last year turned me into a full-time investigator. Started keeping notes in my phone just to track the shifting alliances and alibis. It's basically a masterclass in spotting inconsistencies.
