Add alcohol and social media, and you have my entire coping mechanism!

For me, add leftism and masturbation.

Baking takes too much effort. Buy pre-made cookies instead. Bonus points if you use Instacart or DoorDash.

Yeah but if I bake them myself I can add cannabis.

Plot twist: we have the power to change it, we need to choose to do so.

I can do almost all of these simultaneously. In fact I'm doing four right now.

This is me irl.

Except for the 2 or 3 hours after my morning meditation (Shikantaza).

For that time I am vastly enthusiastic, creative, full of energy and get lots of stuff done.

Which is why you people need to start meditating.

(And I need to start meditating twice a day)

Pfft, there's no cookies in meditation. Hard pass.

I’m gonna go with a modification of one of these. I don’t hate myself. I hate life.
