It’s Valentine’s Week, so you know we had to talk about it.
We’re diving into the viral trend of zoos letting you name a cockroach after your ex (petty? yes. healing? also yes). Plus, Astra shares a new ChatGPT prompt you’ll want to try, Wendy asks if staying in is the new girls’ night out, and Danielle calls out men on dating apps who insist on calling grown women “girls.”
Grab a drink and let’s get into it! 🥂✨
