About

Truth? Eh. Close Enough.

Welcome to Barely True — your questionably reliable, surprisingly relatable, and 100% emotionally correct source for the weirdest version of what’s probably going on in the world.

We’re not here to fact-check. We’re here to vibe-check.
Because in today’s news cycle, if it’s real, it’s already too depressing.

Our mission is to bring the world together — not with facts — but with unhinged headlines, deeply sarcastic commentary, and a mutual understanding that none of us know what we’re doing.

Who Are We?

We’re a ragtag team of internet gremlins, overthinkers, pop culture addicts, and chronic over-sharers who believe journalism peaked when The Onion got verified.

Our editors include:

  • A cat named Waffles
  • A guy who thinks AI is flirting with him
  • Three interns who are probably TikTok famous
  • And your cousin’s ex who “does memes now”

Disclaimer (because our lawyer made us)

Barely True is not responsible for:

  • Confused grandparents
  • Over-caffeinated reactions
  • Accidental enlightenment
  • Or taking anything we say seriously. Please don’t.

Still Here?

That’s suspicious. But cute. Stay for the articles, leave with existential questions.

Welcome to Barely True — where the headlines might be fake, but the laughter is real(ish).
