The coolest thing a person can be is in love with one of my friends. More people should be in love with one of my friends.

Running into acquaintances is so scary. Oh, so now some random guy gets to know what it looks like when I go from my regular face to my people face?

One of the most beautiful displays of human nature is when someone comes into a space for the first time and tries to make fun of someone else for being an idiot, but then everyone else is like “hey! That’s OUR idiot!”

Sometimes, a music person will use a term like “slowcore” that makes me feel stupid, and then I’ll start using that term and making other people feel stupid, and this is how we perpetuate the cycle of being unpleasant to talk to

Tired of having friends who challenge me to be better. Time to make friends who make me think “least I’m not that guy”

Hot chocolate is the perfect sweet treat for when you wanna be reminded that nothing is ever as you remember it and innocence, once gone, is lost forever

My mom used to sing me “Both Sides Now” as a lullaby, so by the time I was watching Teletubbies, I was like “well this is only half the story”

It’s so important for schools to fund arts programs. Otherwise, how will kids who don’t know they’re trans yet find other kids who don’t know they’re trans yet to have weirdly charged friendships with?

If you text someone “so???” at 12:05 on new years, it means did you kiss

Crazy that we teach kids about dinosaurs immediately. Like, you like these guys? Well the passage of time is irreversible, and extinction is inevitable.

I need more 23-year-old friends. Stories are no fun when everyone in them makes mature, reasonable decisions.

Host: hey, you’re up next. What credit should I use?

You may know this next comic from the time they wrote a letter so considerate it made their therapist tear up. Put your hands together for Carson Olshansky!
