MEGAN #29
SHORT:
It should be illegal for straight men to have Betty Boop phone cases… saw one on the train… maybe I’ll start a petition to ban them… seems like a good use of my time...
MEDIUM:
My grandma passed away this weekend. She was an icon. One time she accidentally “went live” and then posted a picture of her boob to Facebook. It took a team of 10+ people to guess the password and go in and delete the boob. May her memory be a blessing.
LONG:
ANOTHER THIRST TRAP CONVERSATION (Trap #86)
Here I go again! Interviewing and elevating another gay!
Below is a great little audio chat I had with Nick Lehmann.
I say “that’s rly interesting” 9000x!!! and talk about how all my friends are in love with him.
Enjoy, share, like, subscribe etc. etc.
For new readers:
I spent the first half of 2020 quarantine recreating 100+ gay thirst traps. To refresh your memory, HERE is a PAPER Magazine article where I go into more detail about the project.
I’ve decided to continue exploring this world, interviewing some of the people I satirized.
When will I stop with all of this? Nobody knows!
Thank you for reading! Apologies for any type-o’s. I canonically write this the night before I send it out. Wanna read older newsletters? Sad essays? Funny jokes? It’s different every week, baby! Click here for the archive.
You can still fill out this survey with your thoughts, questions, topics you want me to write about, etc!

Our show is called Limited Service. My main episode is the 3rd one, but all of them are a rip-roarin’ good time. [ Get Tickets Here ]
