it’s Monday again
you’ve read exactly 47 slack messages,
drank coffee that tasted like pretty pickles,
and remembered the internet took a strange turn
we’re not here to fix that
we’re just here to document the spiral
peek inside, if you dare 🦀🦀🦀
fresh catch:

who is going to play Madonna in her new biopic series? 👀
we’ll be back before the internet breaks again
until then: stay cursed & stay curious
TO THE LINKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

🦀 TL;DR: Join or be a sad little fomo crab.
