Ten grievances, filmed
What they do when you look away.
Ten short films, one grievance apiece. Each clip loops itself, so the joke never needs a replay button — and none of them load until you scroll this far.

Why humor, why now
An anger management app that leads with a punchline.
Four things we can point to, each with the receipt attached. myFOSE is a wellbeing companion — not treatment, not a replacement for a professional.

Your temper sends an invoice
An NIH-funded randomized trial found that a brief bout of provoked anger measurably narrowed healthy adults' blood-vessel dilation for up to forty minutes — anxiety and sadness did not. Researchers describe repeated episodes as chronic injury to the vessel lining. myFOSE was built for those forty minutes: a stress relief app you can open mid-surge, before the second wave lands.
Mayo Clinic reports that laughter fires up and then cools down the stress response, raising and then lowering heart rate and blood pressure while releasing endorphins on the way through. It is a calm down technique you already carry. Our AI chat companion is tuned to find the absurd angle in whatever just happened — not to dismiss it, but to loosen its grip long enough for you to breathe.
A systematic review in Frontiers in Psychology examined how comedy-based interventions are used with people experiencing mental health difficulties, mapping formats from improv to stand-up and the outcomes reported across them. That literature shaped how myFOSE writes. Humor therapy sits alongside your existing depression mood support — never above it, and never instead of it.
Mayo Clinic Press cites evidence that laughing reduces stress hormones including cortisol while raising endorphins, dopamine and oxytocin, and notes reported gains in memory, creative thinking and vigor. For anyone leaning on ADHD focus support, a shorter path back to a workable headspace matters more than a perfect one. myFOSE aims to shorten it, one exchange at a time.
You've asked Claude, ChatGPT, GROK and Deepseek plenty of hard questions.
myFOSE is the one you open when you don't have a question — just a mood you'd rather not take out on someone.
Who this is for
Three people we keep designing around.
The short fuse
What it feels like
Calm to shouting with no middle gear
Regret arrives minutes after the words do
"Just breathe" feels insulting mid-surge
What myFOSE does
A twenty-second vent channel that answers instantly
Replies that reframe the moment as absurd, not shameful
Private mood tracking that surfaces which triggers repeat
The flat week
What it feels like
Motivation to open any wellbeing app is near zero
Relentless cheerfulness reads as tone-deaf
Streaks and scores become one more thing to fail
What myFOSE does
Opens with a joke, not a mood questionnaire
Dry humor that matches low energy instead of fighting it
No streaks, no guilt, no notifications you didn't ask for
The scattered mind
What it feels like
Frustration spikes when focus breaks for the fifth time
Long walls of text are unreadable in that state
Task shame compounds the original distraction
What myFOSE does
Replies capped short and scannable by design
A reset prompt that takes under a minute
Zero-judgment restart — the app never keeps score
The short film
The Great Escape
Twenty-four seconds, three acts, five costumed offenders and one very calm monkey with six hands. Nobody gets hurt. Everybody gets hit.
00:00 / 00:24
Act I — The Portal
The screen ripples. El Macai vaults out and straightens his tie. Dr. Doodle snags his lab coat on the corner and frees it with enormous dignity. Slick is launched like a cork — his toque lands a beat later.
Act II — The Chase
A cherry tomato finds a pocket square. Splat. El Macai looks down, looks up, and runs. Dr. Doodle mists Captain Squeak, who was not involved in any of this. All four hit the puddle in perfect unison.
Act III — The Laugh
Six-Hands Shanti hasn't moved once. Then she releases everything at the same instant. Nobody is spared. Two seconds of silence, then the whole cast folds up laughing and tumbles back into the phone.
Early access
Might as well get on the list.
We'll send one email when the doors open. The launch date stays sealed until then — even from the people who ask nicely.
