    I’m not a comedian but you may find me funny. Funny haha or funny weird? You decide. Stay with me. Back in 2015, when the orange man was first campaigning, everyone thought he just threw out weird shit that he, in no way, would actually do. I didn’t vote for him then, or ever, but…

    The new decade beginning gave me hope. Mostly what I longed for was an uneventful year. Over the past few years, my husband’s sister passed from ALS at age 50, and my dad went in for outpatient surgery but didn’t make it out of the ICU. In 2019, specifically, someone very close to me suffered…

    What are your expectations of the federal government in a pandemic? Back when we heard the first mentions of a virus coming, who did you imagine would lead us through this historic crisis?
