I love alligators. There, I said it. These flat fucks have been around for 80 million years and they aren’t going away anytime soon. What more could you want in an animal? They’re cute. They’re violent. They have soft bellies. They make the South a little bit better. All around an S tier animal that deserves more recognition.

If you’re in Orlando, skip Disney World, go to Gatorland. Redefined what I thought a theme park could be and is the truest Florida experience. A mix between nature preserve and a redneck wonderland, you can immediately buy Budwiser in an aluminum bottle then see literally hundreds of gators living their best lives. You can also pay to feed the gators. Or watch a man with a pony tail jump on one’s back and hold their jaws closed with one hand while explaining their defense mechanisms. It cost $35 and everything here is real af.

🧍Since quarantine started in early March, I’ve had more time on my hands than usual. To fill this time usually spent with friends and outdoors, I’ve been watching Twitch streamer Hasan Piker. Piker, a political commentator, streams every day to thousands of viewers and has been a great resource to help me learn more about leftist politics. For years, I found myself encapsulated in the “Instagram-activism” bubble while not really understanding the context and gravity of the things I was advocating for. I had good intentions, but if someone really dug into my positions I wouldn’t have been able to back them up confidently. Thanks to Piker, I believe I can articulate leftist talking points in a better manner while understanding the historical context and nuance that comes with them. It’s really important to understand how we’ve gotten here as a country in order to advocate for the future, and I encourage people to reflect on their own beliefs and their ability to defend them. There’s always more to learn.

🌧If you use the default iPhone weather app you’re dead to me. One emoji for the whole day? Really? Grow up. What if it’s going to rain and then be sunny? Don’t you want to know? I recently picked up The Weather Channel Premium and, my god, my life has changed forever. When I go to check the ‘DAR (my cool word for radar), I can now see when rain and snow will stop and start in my EXACT location. It’s incredible. It also comes with a new enhanced lightning map with a 30-mile radius. And to top it off, you can go full-screen. Only $30/yr.

🧍This past month, I invested in a standing desk for my home office. And I’ve gotta tell you, it’s pretty sweet. Want to play videogames standing up? Now you can. Want to package orders standing up? Now you can. Want to shitpost on Twitter standing up? Now you can. With the UPLIFT Standing desk, anything is possible. They have loads of different wood types/finishes for you to choose from along with many other customizations. I went with the walnut option and it looks amazing.
