Bummer Summer is Back

QUICK HITS
rafe is absolutely unhinged with her amazon reviews. also if you like a little spooky read, she enjoyed the DEMON AT THE WINDOW, which is about provincetown’s “devil of the dunes” https://www.trulyhorror.com/the-demon-at-the-window-provincetown-devil-of-the-dunes

caleb saw longlegs! no big spoilers; caleb liked it mostly. he’s also reading the lord of the ring, which is awesome. caleb is planning a trip to california to go to a movie premiere – the movie that rafe and caleb helped produce, called “art of a hit.”

help keep crowdtangle active so we have good transparency and fact-checking tools during the election! https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/campaigns/crowdtangle-petition/

and PLEASE VOTE (not for trump). vote local, fight the politicians who are trying to take away human rights, and vote for the president that won’t take away human rights!

– every dog has its day, but does every day have its dog?
– what makes home made better than a skilled chef in a restaurant?
– so if we are getting a super release of sex crazed zombie cicadas, does this mean that they will pass that std to all the non infected cicadas? is this the end of non zombified cicadas?
– does anyone know where you can buy a giant zombie cicada costume? asking for a friend. that’s not actually my hht. my question is, what’s an insult you’ve received that you’re proud of?
– I’ve heard of furries, but what do we call consty’s people in their cicada costumes? crunchies?
– who is your natural predator?
– what’s worse: having the internet just down, or having the internet go down for 10 to 15 mins at a time? asking in hopes of a better day 4
– how many times did you hear all or part of the song “total eclipse of the heart” on monday?
– cicadas are coming out of hiding after 17 years so they can have sex then die. do you know a person or persons who fits this lifestyle?
– certain breeds of cicadas used to only come out every 10 years in certain parts of the world. but recently they have been coming out every summer. do you think climate change has to do with that? also, idk where you were during the eclipse but did anyone else hear the cicadas chirping during the eclipse then as soon as it was over they stopped?
– I can be the only one who sometimes feels like hiding in a hole for 17 years like a cicada.
