Have no friends? Neither do we! Join us, Haruka and Themis, weekly as we discuss real-life matters, spill some tea (occasionally), give unsolicited advice (although if you choose to listen, it's not unsolicited), and give our hot (lukewarm, at best) takes on pop culture. From discussing the institutionalized racism which plagues our society to discussing the latest fuck up of a beauty influencer we are here to fill in as your friend for the hour. **DISCLAIMER: you do not have to be friendles ...

Ah yes, we are living in a digital age where we are all bonded together via the internet. That’s how we’re managing to stay in touch during the pandemic through online calling and psychologically damaging children to learn dances on TikTok. Thanks, technology …Oh wait....

Yes, it's our first episode and yes we are joining the oversaturation of content about the coronavirus. Have some unsolicited advice about precautions you can take (from our experience being in self-isolation since January). We're giving some hot takes about some of your attitudes online, and how memes and TikToks can be dangerous. Also please note…
