Stop Calling This A War

April 7, 2020

The global pandemic we currently find ourselves in is, without a doubt, not a war. It is not. Analogizing it to one is both incorrect, and irresponsible. Let’s walk through this. Donald Trump Is Not A War Time President Early on, after finally admitting that the virus causing COVID-19 infections

Wine Is No Longer A Part of My Narrative

April 29, 2019
