Just Another Monday She sat in the makeshift office once again. Was it really Monday? It couldn't be--it had been Monday yesterday. She remembered it vaguely. Someone had made a comment about the weekend

Upvoting is a time-tested tradition in a meritocracy gone haywire. However many thumbs down and boos given the practice, it seems as if everyone has tried it at least once. Haven't you? ![fake news.png]
