I haven’t flown on a plane in nearly two years and I miss it tremendously. The more I hear about the behavior of entitled maskholes, though, the more I’m glad I’m not dealing with it. We’re still in a pandemic. Masks work. Get used to it. In any case, Reddit user InterestWall posted a video…
It’s not an exaggeration to say that I order something from Amazon every single day via Amazon Prime. Yesterday, I ordered three separate times. Before you jump in and judge my wasteful ways (I’m aware, environment, and I’m sorry!), please take into account that I have a new baby. Running to the store isn’t all…
