This is the vibe I'm bringing to my new workplace
According to a Flemish folktale, a soulless wizard once lived in a castle in the woods. When he died, there were black birds everywhere. Apparently, devils dragged his coffin to hell. The place is cursed. Anyone who lives there will meet a tragic end and for that reason it was demolished.

Dear Blueskyers:
I am finding it rather nice here. Can anyone please tell me the best way to search out various starter packs? Looking for mostly for journalist to cover law and politics. But I’ll also take a good set on sports and cute puppies!
