There’s something so powerful about being able to post anonymously.

The Cringiest Dating Encounters This Week (November 22, 2023)

Dating can be a little awkward because you can’t just expect the communication styles of two random people to fit together magically.

Insufferable Choosing Beggars Who Want Too Much of a Good Thing

Staking a claim to something that you’re not willing to pay a price for comes with its consequences, but it’s no use telling the most entitled people in this world that.

The Cringiest Text Messages of the Week (November 15, 2023)

I do not like to scroll through my old texts. I try not to delete text messages if I can help it because I never know when I need to find some pertinent information like «What’s the Netflix password?» I keep texts around just in case someone needs to solve my murder, not because they’re …
