What if you put 1/2 your monthly weed budget towards bail funds?

Your Mardi Gras costume budget towards one person’s transition?

Made twice as much food than you normally do so you can feed your coworker who only eats ramen?

Shared an online subscription order (like Chewy) with someone else?

It’s 2024 and all I want to see is my friends’ children enjoy Mardi Gras. It is 2017 and my besties and I dress as different versions of Divine. The word “filth” drawn in eyeliner on my arm sunburns and stays visible for weeks.

It’s 2013 and Kelly Clarkson is passing in front of my crowded porch while my friends get black eyes from bags of beads hurled at them by men who must train all year to injure Endymion fans. It’s 2000 and I ride in my first parade, it is uniquely miserable.

here is mom. Love that we use the word “berried” for shrimp. Updates to follow!
