Welcome to the
DEPARTMENT OF MINOR SUFFERING
A civic machine for minor burdens. The Department is ready to receive your frustrations, unfairness, sulking, overthinking, and ordinary worries.
Speak your case into the record and receive immediate absolution from carrying it any further.
No queues. No forms. No taking a number unless one has already been assigned to you.
Before You Enter
This machine is not a priest, therapist, lawyer, doctor, employer, parent, judge, or reliable friend.
Anything you say may be transformed, anonymised, misfiled, exaggerated, ritualised, archived, printed, sung back to strangers, or used as raw material for future Department proceedings.
Do not submit names, secrets, crimes, medical emergencies, nuclear launch codes, or anything you would be upset to see reborn as public nonsense.
Use at your own risk.
By pressing the button, you agree that your frustration may enter the machinery.
Microphone and speakers or headphones are required for proceedings.
