Tags:Life, Ypsilanti, Sustainability
Description:This is a website about a lot of stuff written by a guy in the rust belt with obsessive compulsive disorder, a love of popular culture from days gone bye, and a desire to leave the world a better place than he found it, if not the ability to do so. There's usually stuff about liberal politics, the necessity of supporting local businesses, civil rights, sustainability, local food production, and, on rare occasion, something slightly humorous (usually having to do with unintentionally misspelled words).
