That *thwack was the sound made by the US government hitting me upside the head with a big wet “fuck you.” Got my AmeriCorps assignment today….for Washington, DC. Thanks but no. I’d rather roll naked in broken glass before having rock salt rubbed into my wounds and being thrown into a vat of boiling lemon juice. I have no intention of ever going back to DC so long as it is my choice to not do so.
So now what? Your guess is as good as mine. Japan? Maybe. NYC. At least as likely. I need a drink.
