Ask Me About My Emotional Support Throw Pillows
(And Other Decor Confessions of a Chronic Overthinker)
1. "They’re Cheaper Than Therapy"
- The Evidence: That $40 velvet pillow you had to buy after your third Zoom meeting of the day.
- The Science: Squishy textures = instant serotonin. (See also: stress-eating croissants.)
- Pro Hack: Arrange them in a nest formation for emergency nap readiness.
2. "I Name Them Like Pets"
- Meet the Squad:
- Karen (the prickly sequined one)
- Dwayne "The Rock" (overstuffed, never moves)
- Todd (slightly misshapen, but we don’t talk about it)
3. "They’re My Social Shield"
- Hosting Strategy: Pile 7 pillows on the couch. Oops, no room for your in-laws to sit!
- First Date Test: If they judge Todd, swipe left.
4. "The Ultimate Lie"
- Secret: That "vintage" lumbar pillow? Stuffed with old socks. (Innovation.)
- Gaslighting 101: "Oh this? It’s Belgian linen." (It’s a tea towel.)
5. "They’ve Seen Things"
- Witness Log:
- Midnight snack crumbs
- Ugly-cry mascara stains ("It’s abstract art!")
- The one plant you didn’t kill (fake, obviously)
