Happy Valentine's Day!
Everyone's favorite Hallmark holiday is mr incredible sex videoback, and performative love is in the air once again. It's in our timelines, too.
The annual love holiday always brings out social media's various peanut galleries, but 2021 is a special case because it's our first Valentine's during the U.S. era of COVID-19. We've all been cooped up in our homes for the better part of a year, which means we've also had plenty of time to write new material instead of going out and finding love (or lust or, really, whatever you're searching for — it's all valid!).
