Bandwidth szn is that stretch of time — often late summer or fall — when everyone collectively declares they're at capacity and can't take on anything new. It's the cultural moment where group chats go quiet, plans get delayed indefinitely, and 'I just don't have the bandwidth' becomes everyone's go-to excuse. It's not laziness; it's a collective vibe shift toward preservation. Bandwidth szn is the societal exhale before the next big thing demands everyone's attention again.
Nobody's making plans right now — it's bandwidth szn and we're all just surviving.
