Why does every travel influencer act like they’ve unlocked the secrets of the universe just because they took a cute picture in front of a random wall in Bali? I’m over here struggling to find the energy to even leave my house for a grocery run, and they’re frolicking through picturesque landscapes while I can’t even locate my left shoe for a 5-minute walk. Also, let’s be real, nobody wants to see...

Why is it that every time I try to get into a new hobby, I go all in for about a week and then completely ghost it like it was a bad Tinder date?
