If you can post a website update in under 12 parsecs (or you know before the next liturgical season) we may also have a steady gig for you

How about when we feel urgency driven by existential terror, or bitterness fed by momentary despair, we… either fucking CREATE something (any thing, any size) 5/?

I am getting follows from accounts that are not on the vibe. They have no personality other than “upset Democrat.” I am blocking them. Bots, right ?
