An Update from Your Ape

I know a lot* of you have been wondering, “How’s it going with those Russian women?” Well, I have news! (* two of you? Maybe? Maybe fewer? Probably fewer. But here we go anyway.)

“What Is Happening to Our Country?”

Yet another mass shooting. Yet another mass shooting in a school. Nineteen dead elementary school children and one dead teacher. They died terrified in violence. And everyone is outraged (well, most of us anyway). And everyone is asking this question. Do you want to know what’s happening? I’ll tell you. And it will be short.
