Northern summers, Middle of nowhere, Our hidden beach, More pine trees than shoreline No one for miles. We stripped down, Dived in, The water was cold, But you were hot in my arms. And here I am, even now, Picking splinters of you, Still bleeding, From the corners of my mind. #vss365 #splinter

Seconding Bonafide masks! Been buying the same masks from there for YEARS. Bonafide ships quickly and usually has some sort of deal running too.

To my knowledge, I have never had COVID. Why? Masking, hand washing, isolating a sick family member. The best thing about this? To my knowledge, I have never given anyone COVID. Mask up! It feels good.

Montana became the first state to pass the Fourth Amendment is Not For Sale Act, which requires the government to get a warrant before buying our data from data brokers. This is a huge win for our right to privacy and we're urging Congress to follow Montana's lead.

Worth reminding people that there's an easy way to get out from Audible/Amazon's umbrella when it comes to audiobooks. 1) Use Libation to download all your purchased content (getlibation.com) 2. Use Libro.fm to buy NEW audiobooks and support your local bookstore doing it!
