this was keeping me up at night, thank you

I have a sneaking suspicion that Joel’s flock will thin out come next week.

I have to agree, I’m in the California guard and I can already see the the look on my supply seargent’s face when I tell her, “it’s ok, it’s not going anywhere. It’s stuck in the water”. I’m sure that would go over well.

Reporting on a reporter getting yelled at for reporting. Now I’m commenting on it. Meta.

Hurricane Harvey doesn’t give a fuck what color you are or where you fall on the socio-economic ladder. We’re all just down here trying to survive. I challenge everyone to stop flapping their lips in an internet comment section and donate, or give blood, or come down here and help us.
