Remaining calm is resistance.
I expect we'll see a lot of this coming from the US administration
Continual rain at mine so mycelia party is on.

To help navigate the vicissitudes of life I run trails: I'm in training for UTA100 in May. It's hot today so I was out early - so early that I collected all the overnight cross-trail spider webs smack in the face. One such collision came complete with spider. Sorry bud!

- Milarepa.
