Haven't seen After the Hunt yet, but for sure Eva Victor has got it. I thought the whole film was pitch perfect.

I'm not going to. Any shot someone who did will tell me? Or should I just keep on with my day, all the better for it.

I so wish no one was posting the links to her writing. Even hate clicks are clicks.

He should have led with this when he first chose to run. Talk about the come to jesus moment.

Not saying it supports the shutdown. I'm thrilled you'll do trash clean-up! I'm saying that promoting going to national parks when they are understaffed isn't cool. Will you also tell people to put out their cigarettes? Smoking is on the rise in the parks w/out staff. This risks fire.

I still don't think it's cool and especially not promoting it.

Were you in a National Park during the shutdown? Not a good look if so.,

Hoping this is a picture you took at a National Park before the shutdown.

I thought Freddie and Harry did a decent job on the radio yesterday. Not great, but they definitely addressed gambling as an addiction.
