ya i dunno. i live in a special place that guides my decisions... i know so many people here in HB who don't want to get the vaccine either because they survived this long through the pandemic without it or because the J&J blood clots freaked them out. i mean... they have a higher likelihood of catching covid and having issues or passing it on to someone who will than they would suffering a blood clot, but you know, that just makes too much sense. my pilates teacher thinks the vaccine will give you cancer. not sure where she gets that info... but then again she also thought NASA was gonna turn off the power grid for the entire USA for 6 days during christmas week to stop the chinese from hacking us. ?\_(ツ)_/?
there was just a hardcore fest in NYC that violated all the permit protocols so all future permits related to the fest's organizers have been revoked.

there's a lucero show coming up in november that i was tempted to get a ticket for, but there's just too much uncertainty so i think i'm gonna take the year off from shows for now.
