I'm really trying to get my finances in order.

But my most expensive hobby is currently 'being alive.'

I've been doing the work in therapy to develop healthier coping mechanisms,

but so far my go-to coping mechanism is just telling people I'm doing the work in therapy.

I was having an existential crisis about the future of humanity.

Then I remembered I have a group chat dedicated to complaining about rising gas prices, and suddenly everything felt a little more manageable.

My boss told me to 'manifest a positive outcome'

when I asked for a raise.
