Hello everyone!

I want to announce a new feature to be tested in this month's edition of the school newspaper (out the week of Halloween). It's the first of the year, and I think you'll find it sets a winning tone for the rest of our scheduled publications, so please keep an eye out!

Anyway, we're going to be trying out something that's never been done at this publication before, which is.... an advice column! A charmed box will be set up in the computer lab for anonymous submissions, which will be answered anonymously as well. Please don't be shy! Increased participation will help us assess whether or not this feature serves our community and readers. Also, shenanigans will be ignored.

Thank you!

PS. If your problem has to do with the copious pollen levels, wearing a face mask helps! ♥ It's easy to charm almost any fabric to behave as a filter. Also, it looks cool, like you're in Fury Road.

xen you are a genius i'm gonna get SO MUCH good advice

hey speaking of we should do face masks tonight
the pore cleansing kind not the anti pollen kind

do you think we can convince lionel to join in

Maybe you'll be the very first! The inaugural submission.

YES.

And YES.

ooooo I gotta brainstorm then hmmmmm

P A R T A Y it is

he could deffo use a stress relief one i think i mean we all could after fluffpocalypse but just in general for him too

A reminder to everyone to be quiet and respectful when coming into the computer lab with submissions. Thank you.

~~No thanks.~~

They make those?

i'll wear my slippers so you won't even hear me approach :)

yeh for sure like chamomile tea for your face

Worse.

Okay, fine.
I like tea.

I can make some.

Did someone say face masks??

FREDERICKA would you also like your skin to glow

Glow more, you mean.

MY MISTAKE it's tough livin with such inherently I N C A N D E S C E N T ladies in my orbit

Imagine having a literally luminous face. It'd be USEFUL but would also make sneaking around REALLY difficult.

once you have a light up face i think your only possible career path is supervillainy

you could blind SO MANY PEOPLE and rob SO MANY BANKS

And then WOO the person of your dreams with some soft ambient lighting over dinner, no candles required.

I mean, assuming you could CONTROL your light up face.

the love poetry practically writes itself after that

oh you gotta be able to control it if you can't that turns a super power into a tragedy

i cannot even a little manage my life on my own
and will be begging for wisdom

also does breathing thru a towel count

Everyone can use an impartial ear (and opinion) sometimes.

You might still breathe in trace amounts without noticing!
But I think it's better than nothing, if you're like me and don't prefer the bubblehead charm.

[...] Cool.

The reception's been so positive thus far. I hope that means we'll get lots of submissions.

Oh, I think this is an excellent idea and if you find some submissions you think would be helpful to put on the air, we could definitely do that too??

Oh! Good idea! Maybe complex ones could use a panel of minds. Like a guided discussion. With special guests.

I really like this idea!!

HOW HARD can the problems be on a scale of 1 - You Need To See a Doctor

[...] Maybe I should write a disclaimer for the box.

Wouldn't you want to know who you're getting advice from? What if your question goes to someone that doesn't know what they're talking about?

What if it affects your relationship as peers? Or there's bias, personal or otherwise?

Paper staff involved in answering these queries will be in communication with eachother, I'm sure. If one of us is a better choice, hopefully we can take over for each other. You make a good point.

I usually do. [...] Not that it'll matter to me. I'm just saying.

Well, if it ever does, I hope you give us a shot!
