Meh, washed my hair [View all]

When I get depressed my personal grooming takes a nose dive. My hair gets clumpy. Its short so it sticks up on my head like a baby chick's.

I turned off the news. I doubt pres musk can cut my ss and Medicare. I am feeling for federal workers. Id be very worried. My university librarian friends whose places get NIH funds are scared. I'll keep contacting my reps, but they're on board with all of this based on their answers to me.

We shall overcome I pray.
