Lyndsay Rush (the poet behind the hilarious Instagram account @maryoliversdrunkcousin) is our guest host this week! Each day she’s going to try and make you smile (and most definitely laugh) as she reads some of her favorite headline poems.

Today’s poem: Airline Keeps Mistaking 101 Year Old Woman For A Baby.

Lyndsay’s latest book of poems, A Bit Much, is available now.

About It's Going to Be OK

If you have anxiety, depression or any sense of the world around you, you know that not *everything* is going to be okay. In fact, many things aren’t okay and never will be!

But instead of falling into the pit of despair, we’re bringing you a little OK for your day. Every weekday, we’ll bring you one okay thing to help you start, end or endure your day with the opposite of a doom scroll.
