Good morning Skywalkers! Happy fucking Halloween. Hope you got some spooky plans tonight, like a romantic walk through the cemetery, or staying up late watching spooky movies. Whatever you do, just be safe out there, lots of weirdos out tonight. Cheers 🍻

I'm a man in my late 30s, shorter than average, slightly overweight, my job doesn't pay much, and I have never had a problem with attracting women. These online incels spread nonsense for attention/money. To young lads reading: just be kind, wash, ask questions. Trust me, you'll be fine.
