A Random List About The Joys of Social Media Sobriety

The More I Quarantine, the Less I Experience Street Harassment

I can’t get catcalled if I don’t leave the house — Admittedly, I don’t like humans that much. While the species has shown great examples of kindness, love, and capability, they’ve also shown breathtaking forms of the complete antithesis. Too cowardly to invest energy to decipher which human has which trait, I’ve chosen a life of simplicity and solitude. …

“I Bet You’re Way Better Without Makeup”

Sir, you barely have 100 followers. Relax yourself. I’m always impressed with the sheer audacity of some men.
