Mid-Year Check-In: Are You In Crisis Or Is It Just Hot As Fck? Spoiler: It’s both.
Let’s Start With the Obvious:
🌡 The Heat Has Entered Its Villain Era
June. That magical time of year when the air feels like soup, your car feels like the desert, and your patience gets vaporized by 11:07 a.m.
Is it burnout?
Is it the sun?
Is it Karen from HR asking if you’re “doing okay” again?
Yes. To all of it.
Mid-year hits different.
You’re halfway through your goals, your iced coffee budget is a crime against humanity, and your inbox is full of well-meaning optimism that makes you want to set fire to your vision board. You're not losing it, well not completely. It is hot as fire out there and can literally make you a little nuts. Here's the breakdown on what the summer heat means and how we decided to help make it better!
🧠 Why the Heat Makes Us Ass Holes (Science… kinda)
There’s actual research (probably) that proves that once temperatures hit above 85°F, most adults lose:
-
12% of their coping skills
-
100% of their desire to be pleasant
-
1 significant friendship per group chat
So if you’re feeling spicy, unhinged, or like throat-punching someone over a passive-aggressive card — welcome to the club.
You're not toxic. You're just too hot for emotional regulation.
💅 Why Sarcasm Is Self-Help
(And Cheaper Than Therapy)
Let’s be real:
Saying “I’m fine” when you’re clearly not is exhausting.
Saying “I’m functioning, but only technically.” in a card you mailed to your friends?
Therapeutic. Cathartic. And slightly iconic.
Sarcasm is our love language.
It’s how we cope, connect, and avoid jail time.
That witty one-liner in a card isn’t just funny — it’s a pressure valve. It’s self-care with sharp edges. It’s mental health... but make it ✨sarcastic✨.
💌 Why Sending a Card
Is the Summer Reset You Deserve
Hear us out:
You don’t need another affirmation app that buzzes at 6am to remind you to breathe.
You need to send something that says:
“I Tried. Then It Got Hot”
“This Is Me Coping. Please Clap.”
“I love you, sweetie — but also, watch how you're talking to me!”
Cards are modern-day spell work.
They cast emotional clarity in 4x6 inches of brutal honesty.
They say what you really want to say, but without jail time and include a glitter-bomb option.
They bring relief even in the hottest temperatures of summer, making you a little cooler and lighter (because laughter burns calories).

🥂 A Note From The Team:
We know the summer heat can be no joke, which is why we made joke cards for the heat. But if the heat actually has you feelin' woozy, better make sure you're drinking water and add some electrolytes to that shit. If you're mentally burnt out, summer is over in just 13 weeks and your sanity shall return once the kiddos go back to school. And if you are just feeling the fact that it is June, do something to stay cool, enjoy the long summer days while you can and don't forget to take advantage of the cool evenings! If only those fucking mosquitos weren't the size of a Cadillac!
Have A Bitchin' Week Friends,
