you know – this is always represented in the news/etc as ‘a starbucks a day’ but i mean moreso a gadget or a shirt. i’m splurging on deodorant right now. is that immoral? are you meant to have a mostly austere budget until you’re a boomer with a house and a fence?

so uhh what’s the last little thing you bought to not go insane?

    prioritization is key. (at least for me)

    I understand that some days I go down that hole so I set aside “play money” for play things.

    poor students, adults, and working peeps need play time too. treat yourself day is counted as play time. knowing when play time is - that’s adulting.

    the last thing I bought in this category is kimchi. never had it in kitchen form before so it was both a tasting and meal-pairing experience.
