Welcome to The Murphy Memos!

Have you ever noticed that existing is actually pretty traumatic?!

We’re all destined to die and become worm food one day.

You. Me. Everyone you know. Everyone you’ve ever heard of.

Is it possible to be okay despite knowing this?

Hell if I know 🤷‍♂️

But I do know one thing: if you don’t laugh, you cry.

So, I choose to laugh, and I hope you do too :)

You’ll like this newsletter if you:

  • have a mental illness

  • are a doomer but laugh anyway

  • love finding new things to complain about

Who tf is Max Murphy?

Max Murphy is an existential imbecile who has failed at everything he’s ever done. He created this crappy newsletter as a thinly-veiled excuse to complain about everything.

Max’s life work will be complete when an entirely new mental illness gets listed in the DSM-5 just for him (and the poor bastards that read this newsletter).

What to expect from this cringe compilation of a newsletter?

  • My illustrated essays: lazy explanations of philosophy accompanied by jokes you could only ever hear from edgy teens in the back of the bus

  • Crappy comics: hyperbolic and polarizing cartoons complaining about society

  • 3 Things Thursday: max shares 3 cool things… on Thursday!

plz validate my existence
