A real text exchange from a family member the same month they voted for Trump. I remember needing to loop back a few miles to the store. 🙃

Very rainy in northern Michigan today but I’m lucky to be cosy at home. Spent the day puttering and listening to @tehlorkay.bsky.social’s SAMMY ESPINOZA’S LAST REVIEW, which made me laugh and cry. Excited for CASH DELGADO to pub soon!! #teamprh

A much needed and very lazy Sunday. Stayed in bed until noon.
