Hey @kleinman.bsky.social,
It’s been a rough political week, and I know there is a lot that can be done to make a difference (donating, getting involved in a local campaign, etc.), but much of my fam looks to me for political incites/optimism, and I’m kinda struggling. Any advice for over the 4th?

Built a chicken coop in my back yard with no plans, just vibes after looking at a few coops on the internet. Took me about 3 weeks and 100 beers.

There’s a trend to point how much “older” people looked in the past (particularly in their 30s-40s) and I wonder if the omnipresence of smoking played a role in that phenomenon.
