I’m building a database of media contacts for book purposes, and I’m categorizing people as “personal friend” or “professional contact,” and goddamn has this given me a complex about who falls where and whether I have any actual “personal friends” lol.
wait does someone have to check both of those boxes or just one (asking as someone who has engaged in text gossip with you but never been to your home lol)
brian i am not even fucking with you when i say you were one of the two names that caused this crisis lol. “we’ve never met in person but we’re obsessed with each other’s dogs so…..?”
Colleagues seem closer friends in many ways than even my oldest mates from high school, because we're in this whole crisis together and standing on the principled side of it.
