if it’s not already on your list - the comedy cellar!
you can look up the diff showtimes at their nyc locations and make reservations online
if they’re sold out online you can try to go to the venue and put yourself on a standby list an hour beforehand - better chances on a weekday
a lot of famous comedians will test jokes and practice their sets there if they’re in town. last time i went years ago we got to see john mulaney twice :)

The Whitney, less crowded than the Met, and Don’t Tell Comedy— they have pop up shows in many neighborhoods and cool venues; I second the suggestion for the Comedy Cellar.

underrated. support your local comedians!! my friend brought me to one in london, and it was probably one of the best live shows ever. just DONT sit in the front if you don’t wanna get roasted

i like the concept of “junk journaling”, it really helps me to fill the empty spaces! keep receipts, cute packaging from food, interesting looking tags etc. it’s a nice way to casually scrapbook and keep mementos of otherwise mundane days

just move towards one thing that makes you happy, one go at a time. if it becomes a pattern, think about what it is about the thing that makes you happy. move towards it, one diy, one event, one forum at a time. also know that you can reinvent yourself hundreds of times in this lifetime, so goals are arbitrary. what matters is that you spend most of your days with at least a bit or a lot of joy. oh also remembering that your career ≠ what fulfils you. sometimes we work just to have $$ to do what we really want to do (cook/draw/knit/make music etc). in the end, your life will be made up of many small moments, so just try to enjoy yourself. at least that’s how i do it :)

once a week i clean out my fridge of anything old and crusty, then i go get groceries. when i get back i have a clean space to work in and then i chop and prep for like 2 hrs. just a bunch of side dishes/prep for cooking later. simple stuff like preparing minced garlic, hard boiling eggs, etc. can be as fancy as you want or as simple. makes me happy for the rest of the week :)
