completely legal, plant-inspired vibe shifters that give you a gentle body buzz and elevated mood (you will LAUGH A LOT), aka how to feel mildly magical on a random tuesday. however, you might accidentally start a conversation with your wall.

basically, a delicious little shortcut to keeping your sanity intact without having to commit to a full-blown conversation with the universe.

best pens for joke writing. quick-drying ink so late-night punchlines don't smudge across the page when you slam the notebook shut after killin' it onstage.

i recommend this book to every single person starting out. if your joke structure feels messy, this will fix it. it's a literal blueprint that teaches you how to script a solid one-liner in ten minutes flat.

the first one to see your jokes. thick enough pages that your ink won’t bleed through and a hard cover so you can actually write on your lap backstage.

these mics are everything. stop taping your sets using your phone’s internal microphone—it just captures ambient crowd noise and turns your punchlines into muffled garbage. this tiny coin-sized mic clips right to your collar, handles extreme volume spikes without clipping, and plugs straight into your phone so you get crisp, clear board-quality audio of your sets. plus, it’s tiny enough to look invisible on stage.

current bitlab goal. i don't own this yet because I'm a baller on a budget but the tech looks insane for stand-up. it automatically transcribes your sets and lets you know what jokes hit hardest, meaning you don't have to sit in your car manually typing out crowd work or accidental riffs from memory. plus, it makes your entire library of sets fully searchable by text and turns your stage tangents into clean joke outlines.
