It’s Primary Day in Virginia

Posted on June 8, 2021 by A Dreamer

Thanks, Capitalism!

Posted on June 7, 2021 by A Dreamer

And shitty worldwide governance. Can’t think of another reason we’re looking at a week of 90º weather AT THE START OF FUCKING JUNE. Also just woke up in a bad mood, which is an awesome omen for the week as … Continue reading →

Well, I’m good for another year!

Posted on May 28, 2021 by A Dreamer

From my community losing it collective shit and clearing the grocery stores (WTF) to fully vaccinated. In a nod to science, I dropped from double masking to single masking today, and DAMN if my face didn’t feel a bit naked … Continue reading →

Posted on May 27, 2021 by A Dreamer
