You Don’t Need a Solution. You Need Someone to Sit With You.
Daytime is for work. Evenings are for the clutter of life. Now and then, you have to make room for grievances you can’t quite name. The container is only so big, and what gets poured in never follows a measure. So there’s always that moment: the water reaches the rim, about to spill over.

It’s 5 am. Top Story - August 2026.
I don’t know you but it’s 5 in the morning and the rest of the commuters are either at their midlife crisis or not even old enough to truly comprehend it.
