Long rumored to exist on the dark web, a different social medium, Heelbook, arose in early 1982 to document the honest and mundane truths of life. Not ironic or bragging, not cool or clever, or humble-bragging. Easy on the photos. No photos of food, minus the occasional bowl of Cheerios, or the empty pint of Ben & Jerry's Whole Cow Extract Sorbet, and the accompanying self-loathing rant: "I didn't like it, and now I hate myself."
Other typical entries include, "I treated my best friend like garbage today, and yelled at my wife and kids. It is because I feel that I have no control over my life, and I'm too lazy and self-centered to change that at present."
No weather reports. No politics. Just heels.
