What about the people who don’t want to meet 'their person' or 'the one'? What if instead, we revive the concept of women being able to meet multiple ones? What’s so wrong about finding a partner (or partners) for a night rather than for life? *Starred names have been changed...

Construction crews have begun jackhammering away the city’s iconic street mural, which stood as a symbol of the 2020 protests against the killing of George Floyd by a police officer. During the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020, a large yellow mural was painted in an act of defiance against...

Trump is erasing public climate change data
Trump has ordered the USDA to take down government websites referencing the climate crisis. Maverick scientists are fighting back and scrambling to preserve public data. Trump still believes climate change is a hoax and is tyrannically plotting to ensure the American people take his word for it.
