Oh, and if you can get to it and it's open to the public now (I think it is) Parque Quetzalcaotl is amazing

But there is a huge punk and goth scene there, I think check what's coming to Tianguis and Gato Calavera is a good place to start

There's no lack of good work cafes around the Hippodromo in Condesa, but they're no secret

OK HANG ON
If they are still around (it's been a minute)
Los Danzantes in Coyoacan
El Under was the coolest goth bar, I hope it's still there. I have many a picture of having pulque in coffins with friends.
There's one or two hello kitty bars/cafes if that's your thing

I really hate how much politics and media coverage is just journalists pretending to not understand what's actually being said and done by people in power.

In other news,
NFL free agency conversations open today so on top of everything else in the world, I have to face the real possibility that half of the men I love in my life will just go play for other teams next year. πŸ˜‚

Between my family, I have like 6 banks to call and just laugh depressingly at this week.

I know this is small, but also it is not. It’s one more part of the collapse.

The job markets are destroyed in every field imaginable, it is impossible to get hired except in service industry maybe? The global markets are in free fall. America is collapsing. And these banks want us to repay student loans with monthly payments more than we make.

Aw man, one of the best thing about living in OK was watching the storm chasers on the news during tornado watch.
