I'm not a real doctor
But I am a real worm
I am an actual worm
I live like a worm

Black and white photo of a storefront with a sign reading “WALGREEN CUT RATE DRUGS,” and a line of three 1940s-era cars parked in front at the curb.

I hadn’t known “cut rate” had anything other than a negative meaning before I ran into this photo at a local Walgreens. Got double-vaxxed today.

Once I went for imaging and they started doing images of my knee and the technician asked what I did to it, like she thought I tore my ACL while snowboarding. I told her I was there for my stomach. I was seventeen.

Now that I've read this book:

You should be preordering the hell out of it.

Reminds me of a box of Russell Stover chocolate.

In perfect rhythm I heard my partner rise, brush her teeth, return to bed, pick up her phone, and burst into gleeful laughter.

Another Republican too slow to act.

“Star Me Kitten”
R.E.M. ft. William Burroughs

“Nothing's free but guaranteed for a lifetime use
I've changed the locks and you can't have one….
Nothing’s free, so fuck me, kitten.”
