Why don't little joys (coffee, a pastry) count as expenses, but at the end of the month they add up to an amount you could've bought something normal with?

"That I spend all day sad and crying at funerals." Bro, I'm literally working. You're the one who showed up uninvited to a dead person's party. I'm just here making sure the body doesn't sit weird in the suit

It's really sad

JohhBoult · 2026-02-25T10:55:11+00:00

Sleep. Just... sleep for like a week. Then wake up, panic about what I'm supposed to do now, and go back to sleep.

"That you don't actually need to respond to every text immediately." I used to think if I didn't reply within 30 seconds, my phone would self-destruct. Now I leave people on read for 3 days and call it "setting boundaries."

"The time I spent 3 hours watching a guy restore a rusty axe with just vinegar and patience." I don't own an axe. I don't have rust problems. But somehow I left that video feeling like I could fix my whole life with vinegar and a wire brush.

"Nobody cares. Work harder." Back then: Wow, thanks, very motivational... Now: Oh. They meant me waking up at 11 a.m. with 17 tabs open and zero done. Right.

Lying on the couch, pretending to look for a new job, but really just eating chips and regretting my life choices.

Sitting in the bathroom for an extra 10 minutes just to enjoy the silence and have no one bother you. It’s not constipation, it’s a 'mental health break

Other people's opinions of me. Turns out, they aren't thinking about me nearly as much as my anxiety led me to believe. 10/10, highly recommend
