Topics include: the realities and grind of day jobs, s****y boyfriends, your first romance and first heartbreak, comics and graphic novels, relating to the news in a healthy manner, why you and everyone should go to therapy (and therapy should be free and available to everyone), the particular melancholy of summer, adults and how we don't always know everything & more.
