I rescheduled an auto ship order (cat food) before it shipped because we didn’t need a refill yet. Please clap.

Three things to do today: 1. Check your fridge for any food to be eaten this weekend! 2. Make a list of things you DON’T need before you go grocery shopping. 3. Read at least ten minutes of long form content today. Fascism & oligarchy hates literacy. Love, Women’s Personal Finance, not WomenSPF
Three things to do today: 1. Schedule some time off work (PTO is part of your compensation!) 2. Start/update a document tracking your achievements so you're ready for review time 3. Carve out time each day for things that aren’t work or chores Love, Women’s Personal Finance, not WomenSPF
It is extremely weird that there are people out there vying for The Most Special Boy Award aka richest man alive when they’re all going to be dead someday soon
Three things to do today: 1. Don’t shop at Amazon 2. Don’t shop at Target 3. Don’t shop at SHEIN or Temu Doomscroll overconsumption isn’t cute, and it isn’t self care, ESPECIALLY when done with mega corporations Love, Women’s Personal Finance, not WomenSPF
✨ doomscroll checkpoint ✨ the work day after a long weekend is coming in the morning, regardless if you keep scrolling or not. Log off, have some analog time, and get enough sleep. Those things WILL make tomorrow better. 🫶
Another day with no money spent ✔️ Because good days happen without spending money, especially not spending money with mega corporations.
OH MY GOD YOU DON’T NEED MORE SHIT THIS WEEKEND I PROMISE YOU ARE NOT MISSING OUT
Having enough money to leave at any time is actually super romantic because it means you CHOOSE to be in your relationship - you aren't stuck because you financially can’t leave. Have your own money. Always. And then if you stay in a relationship, it’s because you truly want to be there.
Three things to do today: 1. $10 to mutual aid or your local food bank 2. Write down three things you enjoy doing & do at least one 3. Remember that you have enough, the only good way forward is where we go together, in community & enougnhness Love, Women’s Personal Finance, not WomenSPF
So if I have an AuDHD diagnosis and was highly gifted is that actually 3E?
Three things to do today: 1. If you work away from home, prep a couple shelf stable rescue meals for days you forget a lunch / take out wouldn’t be worth the money 2. Unsubscribe from 2 social media accounts that make you want to spend money or regularly make you feel like you aren’t good enough
Ps. Our weekly newsletter goes out again in the morning. You should read it. 😉
Three things to do today: 1. $10 to your emergency fund 2. Do one thing that brings you joy that doesn't earn or spend money 3. Stock up on a few "rescue" dinners for your freezer for days that you're exhausted and otherwise ordering takeout Love, Women's Personal Finance, not WomenSPF
Remembering that Google’s motto used to be “don’t be evil” feels like a fever dream sometimes.
I keep banging the “USAID was good and we must confront the obscene wave of death MAGA’s destruction of it unleashed” drum because I *desperately* want Democrats and the Left to prioritize rebuilding global aid. We should rebuild it better, but we can’t just let Musk’s global massacre continue.
Three things to do today: 1. Have you eaten - or made a plan for - that food in your fridge? 2. Meal plan for the week. Make the work week easier on yourself (and cheaper) by having a plan. 3. Drink an extra glass of water. Love, Women’s Personal Finance, not WomenSPF
Three things to do today: 1. Delete your cc info from any online stores - make it just a little harder to buy things on impulse 2. Set a timer for 15min & clean out a closet or doom corner or other part of your house 3. Sunscreen on your neck, too Love, Women’s Personal Finance, not WomenSPF
If you’re in a climate spiral this week, know you’re not alone. Feel the grief and the anxiety. It’s real. You’re not overreacting. But don’t let those feelings win. There is still hope for a better future, and every action we take in that direction matters.
We need air, and water, and the beauty of plants. We don’t need one more pair of shoes. We need connection, and joy, and time in communion with others. We don’t need an upgraded car. We need enoughness. We don’t need one more purchase to make us whole.
Three things to do today: 1. Add $10 to a current sinking fund 2. If you don’t have one yet, consider opening a sinking fund for holiday spending and contribute to it each paycheck over the next few months
Three things to do today: 1. Donate to the Imagination Library to continue Dolly’s legacy 2. Schedule your fall flu shot and covid booster 3. Have a talk with the grim reaper about which 80 year old he was supposed to be grabbing Love, Women’s Personal Finance, not WomenSPF
Honor her legacy of childhood literacy, mutual aid, and a deep belief in science and medicine
Two people just died of the measles in Pennsylvania. GET YOUR FUCKING VACCINES. “Extinct” diseases should never ever come back due to a collective lack of vaccination, ffs.
Take a screenshot of this reminder if you need it 🫶
Walmart getting a 2.9 billion dollar tariff refund, that consumers actually paid, should piss everyone off. Especially since they have been increasing prices incrementally on staples like canned vegetables.
