Every week our brand account manager/in-house movie expert/life-advice columnist will answer anonymous questions from shelf users right here in “Dear Steven!” Buckle in folks…this one’s gonna be fun.

girl… i don’t.

i just cry a little every time my bank app loads and try not to order sushi more than twice a week. it’s vibes, delusion, and the occasional spreadsheet when i’m spiraling. but like, i do try to keep my fixed expenses low so i can still afford dumb little treats. budgeting in nyc is just choosing what kind of broke you wanna be.

ughh yes but also… no?? 

like emotionally yes, spiritually yes, but also… what if they go missing? what if they’re near my bodega? i don’t use it but i like to have it, you know? but yeah, probably should remove. growth or whatever.

Hacks because nothing hits like this show, seriously.

Black Mirror because i like my existential dread with a side of dystopia.

and Veep because chaos, insults, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus being the funniest person alive is my comfort genre.
