I laugh now that I used to think living in six states made me some kind of nomad. Who can destroy my score of 202 on this? And when can I give Arkansas its due? https://t.co/Z3G9wUArfM

I will always show up to meet the neighbor who's giving me free pancakes.
San Francisco is in a bad way. Vibes are all effed up. I can’t do much to solve the problems here, but I can make pancakes. So I hung up fliers all over the neighborhood and made pancakes. Over 75 people came and over 125 pancakes were eaten. Here’s what I learned: 👇
