Everything Sucks, Now What? is a podcast about living thoughtfully in a complicated world.
Hosted by Mary England, creator of the Merriment Method, this show is for people who feel the weight of reality but still want to build something kinder inside it.
Each episode explores how to hold two truths at once: grief and hope, rage and responsibility, realism and joy. Instead of pretending things are fine or collapsing into despair, we practice nuance. We name what’s broken. Then we ask what we can do about it.
Through psychological insight, cultural analysis, and gently absurd real-life examples, Mary translates big systemic issues into personal, livable frameworks. You’ll hear conversations about care, power, relationships, burnout, joy, responsibility, and the systems shaping our daily lives. The goal is not perfection or positivity. The goal is clarity, agency, and shared responsibility in a messy world.
This is where we move beyond black-and-white thinking and learn how to build strong circles inside imperfect systems. It’s practical, emotionally honest, and grounded in the belief that feeling good is not denial. It’s a collective condition we help create together.
If you’ve ever thought, “Everything feels overwhelming, but I still want to live well and do good,” you’re in the right place.
Everything Sucks, Now What?
A Merriment Method for a Messy World.

I have received the results from the biopsy on my tumor. It is not benign.
(FOR ALL THE INFORMATION PLEASE WATCH THE ENTIRE VIDEO. THE BELOW CAPTION IS AN EXTREMELY BRIEF SYNOPSIS.)
I have something called LAMN which stands for low grade mucinous neoplasm which can cause cancer.
Having a tumor on your appendix is very rare. Less than .01% of people have one. And from the tumors that are extracted, only .3% will be LAMN.
Ultimately there is very little to know about what this means until I get more procedures that can determine if anything has spread, where, how much, and what level.
These procedures are scheduled.
If I had not had my endometriosis surgery I would have not known about this tumor and it likely would have killed me. The opportunity to treat it is a miracle.
I am handling this so much better than I handled any negative news even two years ago. This is a testament to my own Merriment Making theories put into practice. Happiness habits matter.
I am, of course, worried. But I am mostly motivated. I have a lot I want to accomplish on this earth while I am here and if I just got a shorter sand timer, I need to move quickly.
What you can do for me? Celebrate me while I'm here. Do not wait till I'm gone to martyr me. Or anyone.
Enjoy my art and work NOW. Come to my parties. Read my books. Take my classes. Try my practices. Support my cause. Leave reviews. Share the positivity. Everything makes a difference. Let's get Merriment Making trending. Not because I have a tumor, but because it fucking matters.
I'll update you when I have more information after my colonoscopy.
