Disappointing Affirmations 2027 Daily Calendar -- Dave Tarnowski, Daily

From the wildly popular Instagram account and USA Today bestselling book, the Disappointing Affirmations2027 Daily Calendar hilariously counters the culture of relentless toxic positivity with a realistic take on a disappointing world where day-by-day, week after week, month-to-month failure is always an option.

Pairing lovely vacation photos taken by the author himself with sayings that are amusingly self-critical, encouraging, disillusioned, or all three at once, Dave Tarnowski points to feelings commonly unacknowledged or hidden and spotlights them with humor, wit, and empathy. Have a panic attack. You've earned it.
