Header picture taken on March 15, 2020. The camera is pointed southwest from the easternmost shore of Quonochontaug Pond in Charlestown, RI, USA. I was hanging my food in a bear bag from a tree in the backyard of my parents home - practicing for my impending Appalachian Trail thru hike. The sun had already set and we were deep into the blue hour, but the sky is a beautiful blue to orange ombre that reflects off the pond. Two days later the AT was closed due to Covid-19.

I was this many days old when I learned that there is a scat singing fox at the end of that video.
Am I the only one who is now singing A Tribe Called Quest's seminal hit "Can I Kick It?"

That's not a bad idea. Fingers crossed for you. 🤞
It has been my experience that where you use a dating app matters. OKCupid was excellent for me as a poly trans non binary person in Southern California major metro areas. When I moved more than an hour from LA and SD, though, my experience changed dramatically.

First, lingo.lol is a great TLD for a linguist. 👏
