Here's why I miss the mindless, in-between moments of my pre-pandemic routine
I thought cutting out that time would make me more productive, but that hasn't been true

Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "Havana Syndrome"
From DC's anarchist cartoonist, Mike Flugennock -
"Havana Syndrome"
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=3328
Well, at long last revealed: the source of that noise that's driving
the staff of the U.S. Embassy in Havana — and the U.S. State
Department — outta their goddamn skulls.
Why, it's the sound of a successful Socialist state right in our
backyard, inventing a fistful of Covid-19 vaccines, being recognized
by a major U.S. medical journal, helping to vaccinate the rest of the
region, treating healthcare as a public good and beating down the
pandemic — all while under continuous blockade, economic warfare waged
by the U.S.
No wonder Gropin' Joe and Skinny Mike Pompeo are screaming "SOMEBODY
MAKE IT STOPPPPP!!"

DC Zinefest This Sunday!!
DC Zinefest is this Sunday!!!
The 11th Annual DC Zinefest features self-published zinesters from DC and beyond. The Fest is a one-day independent event designed to provide a space for zine-makers, self-published artists, and writers to share their work with each other and the Washington, D.C., community.
**In the interest of having a more covid-safe event, we're holding the Fest outdoors at the Brookland Arts Walk this year and requiring everyone to wear masks.**
FREE & Open to the Public! All Ages!
The DC Zinefest is a safer space, which means that it is intended to be a welcoming, engaging and supportive environment free of oppressive actions, behaviors, and language. Participants and attendees are asked to consider how their language and behavior impacts others in attendance. Racism, sexism, classism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, and other forms of discrimination will not be tolerated, in tabling material or at the Fest itself.
Accessibility: Brookland Arts Walk is an accessible space. There are no stairs and the Brookland metro includes an elevator. If you have any accessibility questions please send us an email at dczinefest@gmail.com.
We suggest bringing CASH (and smaller bills are better!) for buying awesome zines.
How do I get there? Where can I park? More info: http://dczinefest.com/faq/
