My semi-regular Columbus Day message:

I had the weirdest dream about the end of the world, punctuated by occasionally waking up with a stabbing tension headache, so I'm excited for how today will flesh out.

If you ever find this place taking a toll on your mental, just log off bro. Seriously, just chill, step away. No need to take it out on others or worsen your own state of mind. Shit sucks right now. Our brains aren't meant to be barraged like this. We'll be here when you get back. You're all good.
