Under the Influence

Honey,
why do alcohol-baptized evangelicals
develop addictions to oil-and-gas extractive economics?

I don't know, dear.
Perhaps the same reason that THC pagans
sprout Earth Day cooperative democracies?

Maybe.
Or maybe there's something in the coffee.

And the herbal tea.

Thx so much for encouraging my bicameral insanity. We really appreciate it, both the wine-sipping economist and the THC munching eco-politician.
