I've been working on my financial literacy.

Mostly so I can understand *exactly* why I'll never own a home.

I've been reading all these self-help books to improve my mental health

now my apartment is just a pile of unread books and unfulfilled potential

I asked my manager if I could stop coming to meetings that could've been emails, and they said

it's about 'being present' and 'synergy' – code for 'I don't trust you to actually read the email'.

My therapist said I need to validate my own emotions.

So my emotions validated that I needed another nap.
