Just dropped: Mango Polish – the DIY notebook for people who once fixed a leak with glitter glue and good intentions. 140 pages for haunted repairs, emotional plumbing, and blueprints for your lemon-powered chandelier. buff.ly/xpPcA0m #DamnItCarl #NotebookDrop #DIYDisaster #MangoPolish

Syntax sat on my laptop to prevent me from “opening yet another Canva tab.” He’s not wrong. I just… don’t like his tone. #Caturday #BurnoutCat #CreativeBlock #DamnItCarl

In America there are #NoKings. …okay, well—maybe one. But he doesn’t want power. He just wants raw chicken and absolute silence after 10pm. 👑🐾 Long live Syntax the Great. #Syntax #DamnItCarl #TuxedoCat #BurnoutRoyalty

Signed up for a workshop. Didn’t do it. Felt bad. So I made a space for people like us: The Workshop for People Who Quit Workshops. No pressure. Just potential. #CreativeBurnout #DamnItCarl #PermissionToQuit buff.ly/7OmPYb0

If you’ve ever felt like a fraud or like Past You still has too much control over Present You— You’re not alone. 🌀 Chaos Corner Dispatch #002: You’re Wearing Me Out 👉 buff.ly/Hb1l7Q2 #ChaosCorner #SyntaxSaidSo #ImposterSyndrome #CreativeBurnout

Syntax presents: Feline Ethics 📓 A notebook for your unhinged side quests and half-written plans. Mostly blank. Deeply judgmental. Also smells slightly of superiority and catnip. 👉 buff.ly/1Quf9mh #FelineEthics #DamnItCarl #SyntaxSaidSo #CreativeChaos #StationerySnark #CatBossApproved

Proudly part of the 83%!

Syntax says: As a fellow entirely innocent cat, I can confirm: custard is aggressive. I was just minding my own business, practicing my loaf form, when it leapt at me. We are not safe. 🍮🐾 #FelineRights #CustardWatch

Syntax’s Morning Routine: ☕ Step 1: Set an intention 😐 Step 2: Cry The only cat-led productivity system that includes tears and sarcasm before 9am. #Caturday #DamnItCarl #BurnoutSurvivor #SyntaxKnows #EmotionalSupportCat #CreativeChaos

🚨 New from the Chaos Corner: The Workshop for People Who Quit #Workshops Not a course. Not a funnel. Not a shame spiral. Just vibes, judgmental cats, and maybe clarity. 🐾 Join the list (or don’t): buff.ly/T06SrKj #ChaosCorner #SyntaxSaidSo #WorkshopDrop

📢 Mandatory Creative Breaks are in effect. Syntax, on behalf of the Cat Council™, is demanding naps, snacks, and couch stares. Violators will be assigned additional side quests. You’ve been warned. #CreativeBreaks #DamnItCarl #SyntaxOverlord #BurnoutPrevention #CatBossEnergy

SYNTAX (to the new hire): “Rookie mistake, kid. You meow after the human opens the wet food, not before.” The mentorship is… intense. #DamnItCarl #SyntaxTheCat

⚠️ Side effects of Damn It Carl include: • Existential whiplash • Compulsive rebranding • Midnight blog launches • Cat-led mutinies Avoid if allergic to sarcasm, self-doubt, or post-its. You’ve been warned. 👉 damnitcarl.com #DamnItCarl #BurnoutMerch #SyntaxSaidSo #SnarkyAF

I let a cartoon cat manage my calendar. He renamed “team sync” to “everyone’s pretending.” Honestly? Fair. 🆕 New Chaos Corner blog post: Syntax Stole My Calendar, and I Let Him Read it here: buff.ly/A97cQX0 #CreativeBurnout #MissionFirst #SyntaxSaidSo #ChaosCorner #EmotionalAccuracy

SYNTAX: “You call it a mess. I call it a manifesto.”

SYNTAX (nods solemnly): “Finally, a worldview I can nap to.”

SYNTAX (looming): “Possession is nine-tenths of the claw.”

SYNTAX (quietly): “The human failed the vibe check. Again.”

POV: You cracked open the multiverse and found… yourself All of you Still behind ☕ One’s caffeinated 📌 One’s post-it obsessed 💼 One’s fully corporate 🖊 You’re standing there like productivity Gandalf #MultiverseOfMeh #CreativeBurnout #DamnItCarl #SyntaxApproved #ProductivityPanic #SideQuestSpiral

Syntax, mid-rant: “I told you I’m not just a cartoon. Look, there I am. In the flesh. On the desk. Blocking productivity like a professional.” He says it’s a deepfake. I say it’s Tuesday. #SyntaxSaidSo #DamnItCarl #CatsofBluesky #CreativeChaos #FourthWallShattered

You think he’s just sitting there. But he’s silently judging your life choices, your posture, and your last three Google searches. And honestly? He’s not impressed. #DamnItCarl #SyntaxSaidSo #CreativeChaos #CatsofBluesky

Syntax: Absolutely. If the universe wanted that mug to stay on the table, it should’ve made better choices. Some of us were born to inspire. Others were born to knock sh*t over until something interesting happens. #DamnItCarl #CreativeSpiralFuel #DeskNotSafe #SyntaxSaidSo

Syntax salutes Mr. Bumblebeans’ tireless surveillance work. It’s not easy monitoring neighbor drama 16 hours a day from a sunbeam. But someone’s gotta do it. 🧼💅 #NeighborhoodIntel #CatBossEnergy #HedgeWatchUnion #DamnItCarl

Afternoon productivity goals: ☑ Rub the belly ❓ Then we work? 💬 “Then” we work. Syntax the Cat has entered negotiations. You’ll lose. There will be purring. #Caturday #SideQuestSnuggles #SyntaxDemandsIt #DamnItCarl #CreativeBreaks #CatBoss #WorkLater

Syntax’s side hustles are live: • Productivity Consultant (but only if the sunbeam hits right) • Life Coach (mostly glaring) • Freelance Existential Crisis Dealer (Tuesdays only) Let us know which one you accidentally subscribed to. #CatContent #CreativeBurnout #FreelanceEnergy #DamnItCarl

Over here Syntax ghostwrites for at least three humans and one nonprofit. He accepts payment in sardines and unearned praise. SYNTAX APPROVES.

It’s a holiday. I was trying to sneak in a little productivity. Syntax had other plans. #MaximumEffortToIgnoreEffort #SyntaxTheCat #CartoonWorkLife #HolidayHijinks #DamnItCarl #MemorialDay

Syntax waits for no dev. And your CSS? Still trash. #Caturday #SyntaxTheCat #DevLife #ProductivityHumor #CatBoss #CreativeChaos #DamnItCarl #WebDevWoes

Syntax chewed through an Ethernet cable, saw the Matrix, and started a cult. This is the beginning of Damn It Carl — side quest apparel for burnout survivors and digital mystics. #BuiltForBurnout #EmotionalSupportMerch #CatCult #DamnItCarl
