For the pin: I'm not really using this hellsite currently. If you're that one person who reads my work (thank you), every depressing story is on the Guardian app. To contact me, robyn.vinter@theguardian.com. If you're after bants/japes, I'm doing my best over on insta 💪.

I have migrated myself to the other app and I have no friends over there! I have the same handle :).

I LOVED Dear Evan Hansen at @GrandTheatreLS1 @DearEvanHansen tonight. It's really worth seeing especially if, like my mum, you love to cry your eyes out.

Funny because only today I had a moment of thinking, "does anyone actually care about what I write?" Little did I know, there were thousands of dudes who were caring an awful lot at that very moment.

I did get a few aggy men calling me classist at the time (which is quite funny as arguably one of the most vocal journalists about class in the country) but apparently since then literally thousands of guys have clearly been raging at me for days and I didn't notice?.

I have no notifications for social media at all and I've just checked x for the first time in a few days and apparently in my absence I've been subject to a massive (and still ongoing) pile on for saying English people are ugly.

Will they just give it a fucking rest for ONCE.

I've just been in the train station where an older guy was mouthing off to everyone about how women shouldn't be bus drivers and now I'm on the train with a load of teenage lads who said a female DJ should have "stayed home babysitting" and called another girl a "fucking slut".
