    Thank you for sharing. I'm really enjoying reading through some of the messages that people have left. Some of them contain pieces of wisdom, some are funny or just silly, others are deeply melancholy. I want to reach through the screen and give these people a hug. Whoever's out there, you are loved!

      The fact that you’re unable to edit or answer makes for a genuine experience full of wonder. Like finding message in a bottle.

    This is a super cool website idea! Unfortunately its unusable for me, because I can't stare at it for more than a few seconds without going cross-eyed.

        I would assume because everything in the UI is slanted to the left. It is a pretty weird design choice.

        Like cfabbro said, it's the slant/angle of the text. I get that they want a very casual & cute design, but it's brutal on my eyes.

    This is very cool. For anyone who likes this kind of thing, there's a very similar "game" on Steam called Kind Words that has a comparable feel to it. They just celebrated one million messages sent.

    I really enjoyed that. I hope that messages will get archived and that there will be a chance to view them again after the website is gone.

    Oh nice! I wrote a rather long horror story on it.

    Poetic. Probably. Cool quote. First message I sent was the inevitable "please don't guilt trip me into contribution" Then I sent a prophetic political quote about the 2 party system in the US and...

    The beautiful symphony of brotherhood is lost. Gone are the days where people lived by each others happiness and not by each others misery. The leaders that we elected has barricaded the Nation with hate. The Ruling party has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed.

    Poetic.

    To anybody reading this: I really enjoyed reading some of the posts on here and I encourage anybody to just give this website a few minutes and to go through a few thoughts of strangers.
    Much love.

    I wonder if like in a decade this website will get down to a few thousand seconds and all of a sudden get a spike of visitors again.

    Probably.

    Dear website:

    You're a work in progress, like everyone else.

    Cool quote.


    First message I sent was the inevitable "please don't guilt trip me into contribution"

    Then I sent a prophetic political quote about the 2 party system in the US and then the poem I wrote recently.
