If you are not following me on Insta, you may not know that I have now taken up shrimp husbandry as a hobby! Well, apparently I am too good at it and four of my little shrimps are now pregnant. Plz help me feed my hundreds of shrimp children by supporting this book.

HOLY MOLY: Lauren Boebert’s 1,112 vote lead is now in real danger as thousands of votes for Adam Frisch could be fixed within the week if volunteers succeed in having select ballots confirm their signatures. #EveryVolunteerCounts
