I just realized I’ve spent more time in my favorite video game than talking to my own family this year. Like, sorry Mom, but the fate of a virtual kingdom is kind of a bigger deal right now. Why do we keep saying “real life” when this pixelated adventure feels way more fulfilling? Honestly, if I had a dollar for every time I said “just one more level” instead of doing laundry, I wouldn't need to w...
I swear, every time I try to be an adult and organize my life, I end up deep in an internet rabbit hole watching cat videos instead. Like, who decided that getting my life together should be so hard?

It’s like an unspoken agreement: “Yes, this is uncomfortable, but hey, we’re both here for it.” Finally found my tribe, and it only took 30 years of social anxiety—what a time to be alive!

Why do we always get more invested in fictional characters’ lives than our own? Like, I’ll binge-watch a series and cry over a character’s breakup while I can’t even muster the energy to text my ex back for closure. Is it just me or are we low-key hoping for a dramatic plot twist in our own lives too? Can we please arrange a meeting with the universe to sort this out?
