Sometimes you don't choose bed rot, bed rot chooses you

:(

This is catastrophizing

Who is Sarah Tonin?

The worst bedside manner

Against better judgement, time keeps marching on

Big yikes

Wake up babe it's longing hour

My parents bought the old Brooklyn home that I grew up in back in the ‘90s. It cost them about $150k, plus however much it cost to renovate after its previous owner, an elderly hoarder, had evacuated the premises. When they sold the three-story home to retire to Vermont a few years ago, the value had risen to 1.3 million dollars. That’s a staggering 766% increase. And while I'm happy they made bank on their nest egg, the sale was also a sobering reminder that owning a home in this climate - let…

The joys of retail

The holidays are hard on a lot of people, for a lot of reasons. Many people don't get along with their families - or worse, can't see them - and experience a lonely week of watching other people enjoying the company of loved ones. Some people do get along with their families and have loving friends , but are in a dark place and feel awful around them. I happen to fall into the latter camp. Having a good relationship with one's family is tricky. I happen to be struggling with a heavy bout of d e…

If you ask anyone in the United States , they'll tell you that the dollar just isn't what it used to be. I used to be able to buy two big chocolate bars for that amount. Hell, I'd buy a pack of cigarettes for $4 when I was way too young to be smoking. That same pack is now $16 and change. Inflation is a b*tch.

A lot of people have been talking about how Elon Musk ruined Twitter. While the dude is undeniably insufferable, we regret to inform these folks that the app has almost always been iffy at best. Sure, there's a lot to be laughed at (and learned about) on Twitter, but there's also a lot that scares us. Pompous incels spouting dangerous vitriol , political know-it-alls who love reading their own words, and those people who really, really need to touch grass one of these days. To say that Twitter…

Hahaha, as I write this it's almost 5 o'clock in the afternoon (evening?) and the sun has almost set. By the time I finish this listicle, it will be dark. And I'll feel as though there's nothing left of this cursed day. What will I do next? Well, that depends on my depression level . If it's low, I might actually work out and feel okay about my life. If it's at a medium, I'll probably eat dinner and watch one of my British detective series. And if it's high? Well, you know I'm taking the bong t…
