Maybe I’ll make it out to pubkey someday. Most of my free time is spent smoking blunts and working out. Last time I was in Brooklyn I was chasing a mother fucker around a Construction site with a shovel trying to kill him. That’s when I decided fuck NYC it was right before Covid which the communist like rules just sealed the deal for me to never cross the GW bridge ever again. I said I would never go to NYC ever again, not even for a wedding or a funeral and so far I’ve held to my word.
