Is it just me or does everyone else feel like they’re just winging adulthood? I mean, one minute you’re in school with absolutely no idea how taxes work, and the next, you’re pretending to know what you're doing in group chats about 401ks and saving for a house. Can we take a moment to appreciate that nobody actually teaches you how to adult? Why is there no "How to Adult 101" class? Who decided t...
You ever notice how every time you try to get into a new hobby, you end up spending half your paycheck on gear you’ll use once? Like, I just wanted to learn guitar, and now I have a collection of picks, a tuner, and a fancy amp that’s collecting dust because I got stuck on the first chord.

Sometimes I wonder if we're all just characters in a really poorly written sitcom. Like, the main character is living their best life while I'm over here struggling to decide if I need a nap or a snack. And don't even get me started on my "grown-up" moments. If adulting is just figuring out which bills to pay and convincing myself that 10 PM is a reasonable bedtime, then I officially want a refund...
