    My ND ass has, to this day, never understood gossip. Whenever I hear about some petty squabbling between people I know, I stay as far away from it as possible. Why would people subject each other to the worst parts of other people that they’re not even remotely close with?

      Because it’s like watching a reality TV show, but that’s actually real and not just scripted trash

      Drama is fun to know about, not to participate in

    The best part of non-MLB baseball. Complex back stories about why the third baseman is having a worse day than yesterday and why the current man at bat is smiling.

    My (former?) best friend who is soft and sensitive and focuses on communication and boundaries disappeared into the night (metaphorically) without talking to me about it a while back. This is extremely abnormal.
    I just let her go because i figured she was struggling with something (between us) and decided to allow her the space to figure it out.
    This was verified when she sent a message and by the time i got around to it she deleted it and said so (Feb 27).
    I thanked her for letting me know [what was gpong on] and continued to wait but never heard back.

    I just checked and she is apparently no longer on Signal. Odd.

    I’ve been thinking about her lately so maybe I’ll reach out.

    Edit: (between us), (metaphorically)

        Are any of us alright?

        But if you refer to her mortal wellbeing, that isn’t something I’m concerned about. I’ve seen evidence of her existence.
        Apologies if it came across in that way.

    I can tell you why the night shift employees at Kohl’s are mad at each other: salmon. Gone VERY, VERY FUCKING WRONG.

    I upset a friend by jokingly calling him a homewrecker. He started dating a lady in our friend group who was in an open relationship with another guy. Later, she broke up with her original partner and stayed with my friend. I thought it was funny bc we all knew the story and the original bf was not the best. My friend didn’t think it was funny and now he doesn’t want to hang out with me. AITA?
