Slime ($14)
Much like stress balls, fidget spinners, and those squishy, water-filled tubes from the ‘90s, slime is billed as “great for anxiety, stress relief, and entertainment.” Honestly, I buy this claim, particularly because the slime pulls (like a cheese pull, but… slimier) on Slime Obsidian’s TikTok page are nothing short of therapeutic. Not only is this slime sold in a whimsical variety of flavors that all make me weirdly hungry, like Kiwi Cubes, Mermaid Dip’n Dots, and Hello Kitty Cake Glimmer, it’s also affordable. Super Mario Jelly is $14 on the site, and most of the other slimes retail for similar amounts.
