this week, we talk about why friendships get messy so quickly - and why you’re no longer (and could never possibly still be) friends with your high school bestie. we get into the politics of hotness and the myth of the equal friendship. plus: why friend groups are basically just soft dictatorships dressed up as sisterhoods.
i also ask the question: what actually is a good friend? (and how do you know when you’ve become the villain in your own group chat?)
let us know your thoughts down below!
