Nothing matters more right now than our capacity to be kind and generous and trustworthy and brave for the maybe small group of people we have direct contact with - and that can't be defunded and you don't have to wait four years to do it 366556

Many also have dvds, cds, video games, game systems, internet hot spots, streaming services, ebooks, audio books, park passes, museum passes, and so much more! Maybe it's time for a visit! ❤️📚 533197404117

A teacher is shocked to inherit his uncle's secret supervillain business, complete with private island and hidden laboratories. Real criminal oligarchs promptly come after him. What can I say? Sometimes I need a break from reality. 000
