weekly wanderings

  • I keep coming back and coming back and coming back to this - especially after a reentry night at the club (with no booze!) this last weekend

  • “You see them on dance floors between midnight and sunrise, or outside a party sharing a cigarette or a joint. At some point, you realize you’ve been hanging out for years.”

  • This probably feels obvious, given this post

  • *Eyes emoji*
