Thank you to the city for issuing a winter parking ban for last night when it was ONLY RAINING. And thank you for giving me one of those $50 tickets for breakfast. What will you do with all the money you are collecting? Oh wait, I know: you’ll do what you do best and WASTE […]

사랑해요 / saranghaeyo
Sending my warmest love and admiration to the Korean restaurant downstairs from my work on Granville—who had to close without a goodbye. I hope you are well. I loved your food, I loved your hospitality, and most of all, I love the lady who always welcomed me and gave me big smiles whenever I saw […]
Socks over pants
PLEASE, DON’T WEAR YOUR SOCKS OVER YOUR PANTS. (Unless, of course, that makes you happy.) It makes me shiver, gag, scowl! it just looks AWFUL! — Socks Over Pants Hater
To all the good people out there
Big thank you to Halifax Transit’s lost and found for their outstanding customer service, the driver on route four Wednesday morning and especially the good samaritan who returned my laptop. 10,000 thanks still isn’t enough. — KJ
A pair of leather pants and an idea…
You’re my guy. My perpetual hug. My mountain spring of laughter. The steady bedrock, the beautiful heart of a generous and considerate lover who cares for others. I am unfathomably happy that we’ve been reunited after all this time, and even though we’re not in the same place right now, we will be soon! I can’t […]
Treatise from an angry queer
I am in a safe, positive, loving and committed relationship with a man who I love and care for immensely. This does NOT mean that I have not also dated and been attracted to women and non-binary, genderqueer, etc., folks. This does NOT mean I am now straight or cis, or secretly was all along. This […]
Idiots who can’t park
To all the idiots who need lessons on how to to park: they are very inconsiderate, they are non-humans who insist that they are more important than others. I can’t even count as high as the amount of c#@$$ that do it to me, and I can’t be the only one. I have one question directed at these mouth […]
Does it get better soon?
To the religious lady from the Baptist church who felt the need to degrade me and call me names and abuse me for being LGBT, when all I wanted to do was finish my shift as a barista: I wish I knew what to do to stand up to you. You looked at me with so […]
Why even?
To the guy stomping around the north end wearing shitty far-right patches on his clothes: why are you wasting your time with that trash? Grow up! You look like you’re in your 40s, it looks like you could use a friend! Go out and meet people, drop that bullshit hate you literally wear. Get off […]
Leave Lori alone
Why are news sources STILL reporting on this Lori Loughlin college-admission scandal? Get over it. The rich get perks in this world. Always have. That’s life. Leave poor Aunt Becky alone. — Unjust Interests of Justice
Loves stink
Last week somebody bitched about the lack of loves in this section. Fuck that. There shouldn’t be loves in this section at all. The Coast should get that weak shit outta here and let us bitch non-stop. — Shade Thrower
To my friends
Just want to send some love out to the people who’ve had my back from my teen years to now. My longtime chosen family who get me and who have seen me at my worst, and supported me and encouraged me during my struggles, are the ones whose words ring through to my soul and […]
